Doris David Brookes writes, "I am in good health at 92, still interested in learning all that I can. I am in a wheelchair, use a walker, enjoy cassette books for the blind, and still ask a lot of questions. It would please me to share with you the finding of some pleistocene shells on Higgins Beach after a severe storm in 1978. They were carbon-14-dated by Gary Hayes at the Augusta Museum and are in the care of the museum. Others are in the Scarborough Library in a display case."... Charles, son of Mary Briggs Ridley, says she would love to hear from classmates at 41 Pleasant St., Auburn, ME 04210.... Alton and Phyllis Misener Scott are back in Vermont and looked forward to a visit from Libby Goldman last summer....

Also, Tet reported that brother Wendell was honored by his Masonic Lodge and visited his son, Vernon, on Cape Cod for several days. |
