Shattuck Crew
The photograph features four students identified from left to right as:
W. D. Chandler: William Dwight Chandler attended St. Paul’s School from 1875 to 1881 and is a member of the Form of 1880. The Winter 1926 edition of the Alumni Horae (pg. 94) contains this information about Chandler:
He was a fine football player and in his last year was Captain of the School Football Team. Being of a robust physique he was a good oar and rowed on the Shattuck Crews and he retained his interest in the boat races all his life. After leaving the School he traveled abroad for two years, returning to Concord where he became the publisher of the Concord Monitor. He was always active in Republican politics in New Hampshire. At the time of his death he was Postmaster at Concord, and it was largely due to his interest that the Post Office at St. Paul’s School was installed.
W. Cowdin: Winthrop Cowdin attended St. Paul’s School from 1876 to 1880 and is a member of the Form of 1880. The Spring 1923 edition of the Alumni Horae (pg. 27) contains this information about Cowdin:
A member of a number of clubs, a lover of fine horses, an extensive traveler, a lover of books and an active business man, Cowdin was widely known and highly esteemed. By nature rather retiring, he nevertheless had many intimate friends who loved him for his sterling qualities as well as for his genial and hospitable disposition. He was one of the early members of the New York City Troop A, and during the Spanish War he served as lieutenant and staff officer of the Twelfth Regiment Infantry of New York at Chickamauga and other Southern Camps. . . His love for St. Paul’s and his admiration for Dr. Henry Coit were boundless. Once with a St. Paul’s man his mind reverted to his school days and the vivid descriptions of his exploits there furnished many an enjoyable hour for those about him.
