Century Memorial
Bleecker Van Wagenen, for thirty-three years a member of the publishing house of Dodd, Mead & Co., was an active participant in the literary activities of the house, though chiefly on the financial side. In his long residence in the New Jersey suburbs he was associated actively in charitable work.
