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. 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.   Of Ed Russell and Wrestling Reminiscences      by COOPER WALKER '33   Gilman in the 30s: A No-nonsense, No-frills Education      by WALTER LORD '35   Gilman and My Mentor, Miles Marrian      by DAWSON FARBER '35   Memoirs of a Faculty Child or Life at Gilman from Within      by LAWRENCE K.
