Dedication: Gilman Voices, 1897-1997, is dedicated to the Gilman boy, to the Gilman boy in the Gilman man, and to Walter Lord '35, a Gilman boy forever. From "Gilman Voices, 1897-1997" by Patrick Smithwick Published by Gilman School Bookstore, 1997.

     John Mercer writing -- I have long thought that Hyde Bay was a family (mostly functional) and that every strand of its genealogy somehow passed through Gilman School. Reading the articles from Gilman Voices has convinced me of that. In these articles, kindly supplied by Tom Lynn, I met names of people whom my parents had talked about, but whom I had never known. I know them better now.

     All of these pieces are from Gilman Voices edited by Patrick Smithwick; I thank him for his permission to reproduce them here.
