William Dwight Chandler, Form of 1880

posted in: Archives, History, Library News | 0

Here is a cabinet card portrait of William Dwight Chandler, a St. Paul’s School student from 1875-1881, for #throwbackthursday . A few years after graduating he became the publisher of the Concord Monitor and later in life was the Postmaster of Concord, NH. He is shown here with his high wheel bicycle – a very popular item at SPS during that time.

A Lovely Evening for a Poetry Slam

The poetry slam was a success – it was a beautiful evening on the terrace full of poetry, stories and songs – with back up vocals by resident warblers and frogs.
