...Yale retired for nothing; but in the third, Nevins having been substituted for A very in the pitcher's position, we experienced a similar fate, Yale getting two. The Nine soon became accustomed to Nevin's eccentric underhand throws, and punished him for two, five, and two, in the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings, while New Haven only obtained a two and a one in the fifth and sixth. At this point the score showed fifteen runs in our favor against six for our opponents; but Yale now began to pick up fast, and scored five and three...

The selection of a Referee was left to a committee consisting of McClellan, Oakes, and Hartwell, which will report in July.

The St. Paul's hold special services during Lent, and two successive courses of sermons for students have been provided at their expense. Both the Christian Brethren and the St. Paul's have religious libraries...
...Breakfast Table, you know, mentions having seen the devil's footsteps here in his youth. I have often fancied that certain black streaks on the end of Holworthy were his tracks burnt into the bricks, perhaps when he was going up to spend the evening in the third or fourth story. If they are his marks, he must have awfully long feet; but then, you know, luxurious growth in tropical regions is not unknown...
