Coolidge, now a resident in Cambridge and the oldest living graduate of Harvard. Douglas was from Ohio; King was afterwards Chief Justice King of Ohio; Aspinwall was long known as one of the leading citizens of Brookline; Kirk Boott was then a resident of Cambridge and a great social favorite; John Holmes, the younger brother of Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes, was regarded by many as the more brilliant man of the two, and a full sketch of him will be found in my volume called "Contemporaries." Minot... was afterward Dr. Francis Minot of Boston, eminent as a physician. Peirce, Felton, and Lovering were pro- fessors or tutors in college. The "Three divine ones" — every large family in the community at least contains as many as that — were my two elder brothers Waldo and Thacher and myself. Robinson was from Louisiana and was considered the most attractive of all the southerners, and Roubieu was from the same state. The Misses Quincy were the president's daughters and the Miss Wellses the daughters of William Wells, a highly trained Englishman whose school Lowell and Story and myself attended.
