Finally, the Alphabetical List indicates where the graduate resided, the year he entered Harvard Law School and the year he left the Law School. For example, Frederick Randolph Abbe resided in Boston and entered the Law School on Sept. 28, 1848 and left the school in 1849. (Note that all those who entered the school did not stay there for the full course of instruction).
