Excerpt from Class of 1884 Harvard College: Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Report of the Secretary, Report VII, June, 1909 The Class of '84 assembled to register in Cambridge on October 4, 1880, entering 243 members. During the freshman year, 38 members left, leaving at the beginning of the sophomore year 205. During the sophomore year there were admitted 12 members and 25 members left, leaving at the beginning of the junior year 192 members. During the junior year 17 members were admitted and 12 left, leaving at the beginning of the senior year 197 members. During the senior year there were admitted 12 members and 13 members left, leaving 196 members who received the degree of A.B. at Commencement on June 25, 1884. Three members received their degrees at Commencement, 1885, as of the Class of '84, bringing the list of graduate members to a total of 199. Since that time Appleton, Atkinson, Billings, Latham, Guild, and H. C. Shaw have received degrees out of course, making the total 205. Of these 32 have died, leaving 173, and, as the result of petitions of the Class, Bean, Blodgett, Frenkel, Hudgens, King, Nye, Payson, and Wakefield have had degrees of A.B. voted by the President and Fellows of the College, to be conferred upon them on Commencement Day, 1909, so that the total number of living graduate members is now 181. In addition to the regular members on the list at the time of graduation, there were 82 men connected with the Class temporarily at one time or another during the college course. Of these the 17 recipients of degrees out of course have been transferred to the regular list; the names of 14 men who were members of other classes have been dropped from the list, as have the names of 18 men who are more closely identified with other classes or who have persistently declined to pay any attention to communications or to furnish any information concerning themselves.
