Then, headed by the College band, and a barge containing most of the winning athletes, the students formed a procession and marched around the Yard through Harvard square to President Eliot's house. Fire works, bengal lights, numberless torches, and the mass of cheering men marching to the tune of "Up the Street," formed a picturesque and lurid scene of enthusiasm and excitement...

Though in future he will necessarily not come into such close contact with the students, his genial and inspiring influence will still be with us. He is an example of the simple dignity of abounding learning, and the quiet strength that has come from high endeavor...
