...There too was Nathaniel Ward, who framed for the young Colony its "Body of Liberties," and who held up to their gaze some of their foibles in his "Simple Cobbler of Agawam?" What a void in the history of toleration would exist if Roger Williams with his doctrine of Soul-liberty, as he called it, had not passed, for the good of both, I suspect, from the bay of the Massachusetts to that of the Narragansetts? These were but few of the spirits who were transplanted from the banks of the Cam to the neighborhood of the Charles, and fairest...
...speak or write a great deal about Germany without touching frequently upon the great subject of Beer. Beer is to the German what poetry is to the poet - the native language of his soul.

The pictures which the genial captain has in his various rooms, are of an unusually uninteresting character, and it has become a custom of freshman crews upon taking possession, to turn them face inwards towards the walls. There are four sleeping rooms...
...essentially a plea for the classics based upon a comparison of the work done by students of the classics, and those who are so unfortunate as not to have studied Greek. Mr. H. E. Fraser, '86, presents some pleasing lines entitled, "Memory, a Dream." We are told that the soul of things is touched by human sorrow. Mr. N. S. Kenison, '86, tells in "A Vermont Experience" a laughable experience in a country store. A charming bit of verse from the French of Fontaney is the work of Mr. E. T. Parsons, Rochester, '86. The reports of several banquets held...
