Excerpt from A Memorial Report: Class of 1916 IT is with mingled pleasure and regret that I submit to my class this our triennial report, pleasure because I am sure that no class has ever shown such a wonderful record of work well done for a just cause; regret because this book shows that we have lost so many comrades, and because the report is necessarily so incomplete on account of the vicissitudes of war. AS it is impossible to gather together the broken strings of the class in such a short time, the regular triennial report, giving the lives Since graduation of all the class, has been omitted and replaced by this book which gives expression to the thoughts which are uppermost in our minds. It is a tribute to the memory of our classmates who have died. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fourth Annual Report: January 1 to December 31, 1916 At a special meeting of the Historical Commission held at Lansing December 21, the following resolutions were adopted on the death of Hon. Lawton T. Hemans, late President of the Commission: "The State of Michigan and the Michigan Historical Commission have met with a severe loss in the death of Lawton T. Hemans, a member of this Commission since its organization. By his deep interest in the history of Michigan and his unusual knowledge of its beginnings and development, being the author of a short but valuable history of the State, Mr. Hemans possessed unusual qualifications as a member of the Commission. The monument erected in this State to its first Governor, Stevens T. Mason, was largely due to the influence and interest of Mr. Hemans; one result of that interest was the thorough investigation of the Governor's life and the preparation of a most interesting and valuable biography which this Commission hopes to publish soon, and which will be a permanent and honorable memorial. While we do not need to speak in this connection of Mr. Hemans' character, ability and value to the State in general, we wish to place upon the records of the Commission our high appreciation of his value to the Commission. His attractive personality, good judgment, persuasive pleasant manner, wide personal acquaintance, and democratic spirit, combined to make his counsel and suggestions very valuable, and his death brings to each member of the Commission a deep sense of personal loss."
