...that the ghosts have walked and the witches ridden their broomsticks in fact, now that Hallowe'en has made its yearly visit and there remains no reason why the Georgian's pumpkin pies would be made of squash--there is nothing in sight to break the expanse of featureless days until Armistice Day, some twelve days hence.

According to somewhat indifferent records the only other time that the cadets have been in Boston en masse was in 1821, when a corps of 235 marched up the Hudson and over the mountains from the plains of west Point, a hike of some 250 miles. Unlike the trip last night when all were protected in luxurious sleeping case, the corps of 1821 weathered in their tents and lean...
