"In connection with the editing of the Triennial Catalogue in Latin, in the year 1862-1863, the undersigned was directed by the faculty to prepare and have printed an obituary record of graduates deceased during that year; and subsequently he was instructed to prepare a similar record annually. This has been done, and four series of ten years each were completed in 1902, containing accounts of eleven hundred and eighty-three graduates and numbering in all ten hundred and seven pages. Nine numbers from 1877 to 1885, inclusive, were edited by the late Prof. J.K. Chickering ... To the first two series and also to each of the third and fourth series, alphabetical indexes have been added."
