Back:

C. Crocker: Most likely Kendall Fox Crocker who attended St. Paul’s School from 1881 to 1883 and is a member of the Form of 1883. The Spring 1945 edition of the Alumni Horae (pg. 79) contains this information about Crocker:

After graduation from St. Paul’s, he went to Harvard and was graduated with the class of 1888. As did so many eastern men in the ’80’s, he went to California after graduation and engaged in mining. He also became interested in mines in Nova Scotia. After disposing of his mines in Nova Scotia, he returned to Fitchburg where he was associated with the Fitchburg Manufacturing Co.

W. Brigham: William Sinclair Brigham attended St. Paul’s School from 1877 to 1882 and is a member of the Form of 1882.

R. Appleton: Robert Appleton attended St. Paul’s School from 1877 to 1882 and is a member of the Form of 1882. The Spring 1945 edition of the Alumni Horae (pg. 78) contains this information about Appleton:

Mr. Appleton was graduated from Yale in 1886 where he was varsity oarsman. . . He started his business career with D. Appleton & Co., founded by his father, Daniel Appleton, and became a member of the firm. In 1914, however, he started his own firm, the Robert Appleton Publishing Company, to publish the Catholic Encyclopedia, and retired twenty years ago.
