...ride away, just beyond Fresh Pond, is Mt. Auburn Cemetery. You may find it somewhat surprising that a cemetery is one of the more popular picnic areas in town.

I took it in a complete stupor, barely aware of what I was writing. I begged my section leader for mercy, staggered home, slept the rest of the day, took my third exam and collapsed.
