...Hares arrived home at 5.15 and the Hounds a quarter of an hour later. The first Hound in was Russel '87, closely followed by Braudt '85, Hazard '85, and Blake '87. The hunt was of the right length and was greatly enjoyed by all participants. It would be better, however, to have the next one a little earlier to avoid the darkness...

...best. The officers have always endeavored to provide for the comfort and convenience of the contestants. The change on Saturday, which resulted in public confusion, was probably made for the convenience of some person. We feel certain, therefore, that the association will take all possible steps to set matters right with the contestants who were barred out on Saturday. Would it not be possible to allow them a trial by themselves, and if they beat the records made Saturday, give both winners prizes ? At all events the unfortunate complications of Saturday must have convinced the officers of the inadvisability...

...this procession of theirs is a demonstration to help their candidate. It is intended to show the enthusiasm which Republicans feel for Mr. Blaine, and to win over doubtful voters, so far as they can be won by the effect of enthusiasm. The Seniors of Harvard have no right in such a procession, if they bear their intended transparency. No gentleman has the right to say or do anything to the detriment of the man whose salt he is eating. The Senior Class is equally bound in honor not to attempt to defeat the object of the Republican procession...
