...have been placed in nomination for marshalships by the Nominating Committee of the Senior class, and one by petition. The Committee was appointed by the President of the class, is responsible to the class, and has aimed at nothing but the good of the class. And at least one candidate has countenanced the formation of a partisan ticket determined to make him first marshal. If at the middle of the Senior year, Seniors do not know the names and deserts of the men prominent enough to be nominated for marshalships, such Seniors have by this ignorance forfeited their right...

Layman's face was not meant by nature for that of a Puritan justice; and, in spite of occasional good passages, his mirthful geniality of expression persisted in belying the character he had assumed. Miss Gragg rendered the varying and not entirely convincing moods of the heroine with a charm which was, perhaps, a trifle modern; and Mr. Papazian's capable presentation of the witch was injured but not destroyed...
