Excerpt from Exercises of Class Day at Dartmouth College, July 21, 1868 We stand to day on the last stepping-stone which leads from the portals of our Alma Mater. Day after to -mor row her final God speed will ring in our ears; we shall then gather the last handful of flowers which she will throw in our pathway, and turn our footsteps from her pleas ant groves forevermore. It will mark an era in the life of each one of us; not one of us can avoid the silent teaching of that farewell.
