The senior class dinner took place last night at the Parker House. Although the attendance was not so large as at the junior class dinner last year, still about one hundred members of the class were present. Mr. Trafford, as class president, spoke briefly on the past history of Eighty-nine, and then introduced Mr. Darling, the orator of the evening. The latter reviewed the social, intellectual and religious activity of Eighty-nine's college career. After him, Mr. Hunneman read a poem, one of the most attractive incidents of the evening, fully of witty sallies on the prominent members of the class. Mr. Painter, toastmaster, called on many of those present to reply to various toasts, which, with one or two exceptions, were answered in a bright, sprightly manner. The intervals between the toasts were filled up with familiar college songs, in which the entire class joined. The festivities of the evening were closed by singing "Fair Harvard," after which nine rousing cheers were given for Eighty-nine. The success of the dinner was due to the good management of the committee, Messrs. Parker, Keyes and Codman.
