(Palmer) Kidder, born March 9, 1870, in Lowell, Mass., where his father practised medicine. In the fall of 1888 he entered Phillips Exeter Academy. With his characteristic earnestness he did two years' work in one and entered Harvard a year ahead of his classmates. At Exeter he spent most of his time at his books, received a scholarship, and early impressed his instructors and fellow students with his purity of thought, seriousness of purpose and independence of action. At Harvard Brother Kidder proved himself to be a bright and painstaking student. He held scholarships from the middle of his freshman year until the end of his college career. He was deservedly regarded as a valuable acquisition when he joined our beloved Fraternity, in which he became deeply interested. In the early part of his senior year he was elected to the Phi Beta Kappa, which naturally means more at Harvard than in a smaller college. He also became a member of the Handel and Haydn Society of Boston. Early in the year 1893, he was compelled by sickness to leave college and therefore did not receive his degree at Commencement, though he was only one and one-half courses short of a magna cum laude. In February, 1894, his health had improved so much that he went to Kansas City, Mo., where he was employed until the following November as shipping clerk in a large packing establishment. Later he taught in Shrewsbury, Mass. In 1896 he went to Albany, N. Y., to become assistant to Dr. Milne, President of the New York State Normal College in the compilation and revision of text books of geometry. He remained with Dr.Milne until shortly after his marriage at Albany, October 28, 1896, to Miss Louise Crissey. He was then appointed senior examiner in sciences in the University of the State of New York, where his career was steadily upward. Barred from the baccalaureate degree in 1893, upon recovering his health he again took up his undergraduate studies in 1898, secured his A.B. with distinction, and established himself in an educational career which promised much both to himself and to the state of his adoption. News of his untimely death on December 5, 1900, was received with deep regret by his large circle of friends and acquaintances, and particularly by his classmates in the Iota Charge. The picture accompanying this sketch gives a fair idea of the intellectual and noble character of this loyal Theta Delt.
