...church in Brooklyn and editor of the Christian Union. To come such a distance to serve the university will necessitate the sacrifice of a great many valuable hours and a great addition to his burden of labor.

This thought has hardly passed through our minds, when a horrid noise re-echoes from the wall, rolling from story to story with wild clamor; at last it dies away, and when silence...
...regular in the performance of his college duties, being seldom absent from prayers or lectures. His work, however, was done as best suited his convenience, and he was ready at all times to cast books aside that he might chat with some friends, or go out into the surrounding country for a long stroll with a few of his chosen companions...
