...regained by a heave from '86. At the end of the first minute the knot was two and one-half inches toward the '83 side, where it remained until the end of the second minute. During the third minute '83 tried three heaves, but in the two first '86 got in ahead, and gained one and one-half inch. The third heave was about even. '83 now rested an instant, and then gave a hard heave, gaining an inch. At the end of the fourth minute '83 had about three inches, which lead they slowly increased to four inches, which...

...substance of the complaint I can only say that I got my first subscription to the class fund in March, and still found time to see every member of the class before commencement day. I do not think that class secretaries usually begin this part of their work very much before this time. Our fund was a large one, and there is no reason yet why '83's should not be as large...
