1923

H. Sewell Williams, a friend and neighbor of Henry Perkins who describes himself as Henry’s “social director and volunteer chauffeur,” writes with news about Henry: “Although Henry sees little, he has remarked more than once that seldom is there any news under class of 1923, so I told him I would correct that. . . . Henry lives in his own home alone but does have someone come in during tire week to help with the cooking, cleaning, etc.. He gave up downhill skiing about two years ago when his hand-made, lace-up Limmer ski boots refused to stay in his telemark bindings.

“Henry continues to attend as many I Oth Mountain Division reunions as he can get to (he doesn’t drive), and in September 1992 I took him to die 50 th reunion of our training unit at Camp Hale in the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. Reunion took place in Vail, and Henry was in the Leadville parade in uniform. This past August I drove him up Mount Washington in New Hampshire for our annu- al memorial service at the summit and tail- gate picnic lunch at the nearby Wildcat Ski Area afterwards. With any luck, Henry may get to a Dartmouth football game this fall.

“Henry will turn 94 January 3, 1994, and sends his very best to all his Alpha Theta fra- ternity brothers.

“It has been a pleasure to write to you on behalf of Henry.”
