...which has become an indispensable helpmeet to art, literature, mechanics, justice, and nearly every department of society. And now every college of any note must have its photographer, and one of supremest skill. For some time Warren of Boston and Notman of Montreal held their sway, both men of superior talent. The latter did his work on British territory, and for some time avoided the impost duty, but was finally compelled to open a branch on this side of the line. It is not a little remarkable to note the rapid strides made by Mr. G. W. Pach since...

Thayer, '78; Judges, S. Butler, '77, H. G. Danforth, '77, R. Trimble, '80, W. Kane, '82; Timekeepers, W. Twombley, '79, and W. Hooper...
