...prayer. Dr. Abbott took for his text the sixth chapter of Isiaah. Isaiah, he said, was not prompted to deliver his message from any feeling of his own worthiness, but from a feeling that he had received from God, a blessed truth which it was his duty to tell to men. All of us should feel this duty to impart to men the truths which are given us by God. It is the students and that class of people that have the advantages of education that should carry their message to the more ignorant. It is the duty of every...
...Legend of William Tell" pricks the legendary bubble. "Robert Morris" is an interesting resume of a not very interesting career by Frank G. Cook.

It the members of '93 are not wholly indifferent to their crew, and willing to suffer the disgrace of forfeiting the Columbia race, which they were so slow in arranging, they must make...
...class crews have now been on the river for some time. Most of the men are so new that it is hard to tell what will happen to them. The seniors perhaps show the best form at the present day; their blade work is not very bad on the whole. The juniors are new, clumsy and heavy. Whatever may be said against them little can be brought out in their praise. The freshmen are new and excessively rough. No opinion can be formed of them; they are very heavy. The sophomores looked badly yesterday. They...
