    WHITING was a recruit from '93, having dropped a year ▼ * owing to ill health, and joined our ranks in the fall of 1892. Previously he had completed Sophomore year at Colgate University, in the Class of 1893. He was born at Pawlet, Vermont, August 18, 1868, one of the seven children of Edmund Cotton and Charlotte Matilda (Decker) Whiting. His father

    JAY EDMUND WHITING
    was born November 10, 1818, at Goshen, Vermont, a descendant of Reverend Samuel Whiting, who came from England in 1635, and settled in Lynn, Massachusetts. The two grandfathers of Mr. Whiting, Senior, Cotton Whiting, and Benjamin Whitmore, were soldiers in the Revolutionary War. Mr. Whiting was educated at public schools and became a farmer, residing successively at Goshen, Vermont; Hebron and Granville, New York; and Pawlet, Vermont, from I860 to his death there December 17, 1900. He was married November 12, 1845, his wife having been born February 2, 1827, at Swanton, Vermont, of Dutch stock, her ancestors in Colonial days having owned lands adjoining Livingston Manor. She died January 13, 1918.
    Their son, our classmate, was prepared for college at the Granville High School, and the Troy Conference Academy. He won a dissertation appointment at Commencement. Upon graduation he attended the Law School of New York University and completed the course in one year, being admitted to the bar in 1895, and becoming a partner in the law firm of Bodine, Grigley and Whiting of New York City. In September, 1903, he became associated with the firm of Townsend, Avery, and Button, which was succeeded in November, 1911, by the present firm of Avery and Whiting, of which he is still a member. In politics he is a Republican. He is an attendant of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and interested in various philanthropic and civic movements. He is also a member of Delta Upsilon, Colgate Chapter; Delta Chi, New York University Chapter, and Mystic Tie Lodge, No. 272, F. and A. M., New York City. As his chief recreations he cites "autoing and chess."

GRADUATED HARVARD 1700 AND WAS ORDAINED AT CONCORD, MA. 14 MAY 1712 Note: Source- History of Concord "The Rev. John Whiting died May 4, 1752, aged 71. He was the son son of the Rev. Joseph Whiting, who was graduated at Harvard College in 1661, and was afterwards minister of South Hampton, Long Island. His mother, I suppose, was daughter of the Hon. Thomas Danforth of Cambridge, deputy governor of Massachusetts colony; and as he died without issue, perhaps a good portion of his estate desended to Mr. Whiting. His grandfather was the Rev. Samuel Whiting of Lynn, whose last wife was Elizabeth St. John, daughter of the Right Honorable Oliver St. John, nephew to the Rev. Peter Bulkeley, and mentioned in the History Of England. The father of Rev. Samuel was John Whiting, Mayor of the city of Boston, Lincolnshire.
    The Rev. John of Concord, was the sixth son of the Rev. Joseph Whiting, the five preceeding him having died in infancy. He was born at Lynn, June 20, 1681. He was graduated at Harvard College in 1700, and was subsequently chosen a tutor and fellow of that institution. He was pastor of the church in Concord about Twenty six years. After his dismissal, he resided in this town principally as a private citizen. He was a man of wealth, learning, influence and talents; and, as his modest epitaph informs us, " a gentleman of singular hospitality and generosity, who never detracted from the character of any man, and was a universal lover of mankind."
    He married Mary, daughter of Rev. John Cotton of Hampton, New Hampshire, and granddaughter of the Rev. Seaborn Cotton."
