If Newell were assigned to a group of House crews in rotating yeas, no unfairness would be created in the matter of walking distance to and from the respective boat house, and such an innovation, although it might destroy Newell as the sanctum sanctorum of the University crews, would far outweigh this doubtful disadvantage by relieving Weld of its late afternoon congestion...

A week ago, according to the press, he came on the Hill and held a meeting in the office of the majority whip of the House, and yesterday he entered into the sanctum sanctorum, the office of the majority leader of this House, or the holy of holies.
