I O HIS last year has been so full of exciting events in the history of our College that this number of the Reveille cannot fail to be an interesting and instructive publication, especially adapted to family use, for the young always need to be instructed. Its circulation will, necessarily, be tremendous, for in our overflowing College, students assemble from all quarters of this broad land, and, of course, every student will wish at least two copies, one for himself and one for “ the little girl he dearly loves.” The editors take a great deal of pride in presenting this number of the Reveille to the admiring public. It cannot fail to interest even those of the most tender years, and is adapted to all classes of society, from the most ignorant “prep” to the refined and cultivated post-graduate. This being the case, come one, come all, and purchase a copy of this delightful book. As may be seen from the contents, articles have been received from the great- est living authors both in this country and Europe. Before presenting this copy to the public, the editors wish to make one explanation, they have carefully followed the example of Mr. Sheldon Amos in his Science of Law, which requires that the whole book should be read, from beginning to end, before the first chapter can be thoroughly understood and appreciated, so if any passages seem to the reader to be slightly obscure, read on till you finish the book and all will be explained.

We know our readers cJ arc in a tremor of expectation for something brilliant—something that will give them at least a glimpse into the vast domain of our present intellects. Heavenly music inspire us ! Spare them their tears of disappointment! We recall the events of the past four years. How largely they have been shaped by 86! True, the checkered career of our first two years in College played havoc with some of our most gallant men, and rather cooled the ardor in the remainder of us. But Time will make a fatal mistake if it blots out all memory of us: if, geologically speaking,—eh, Doc?—our deeds do not leave at least ripple marks in Gambler's sands to keep us in remembrance. Not all of the fame of ’86 is due to those who still bear her banner. Let us recall for a moment some of those who have fallen by the wayside. There was Pinney Ambidexter, a “good man,” but who had a brother whom one “ought to see;” Link, who was a genuine Won ter Van Twillcr in more ways than one; Sam, and the two Harries, staunch supporters of the Epicurean philoso- phy; and Carl, Ben and Babe, of fragrant memory: a brilliant array, and not half the roll of our missing is called ! We who survive them arc few in number, but in the Language of the good, grey poet, “ we arc some, at least in our own estimation; for we arc nothing if not hopeful. Our history thus far has been only scribbling upon the covers. We are now ready to open the volume, where our deeds, we hope, will Ik. recorded by other hands than ours. ?lass of ’87 Officers.

WALTER W. SCRANTON, . GEORGE A. REID................ RALPH S. HOLBROOK, JHistory of ’87. Y E have many misgivings about commencing a history of so vast and V V startling dimensions as this, and would much prefer to occupy the position of the historian of our predecessor ’86. ” who has the honor of being a historian without a history; or of our successors “’88” and ’89,” who write merely for the amusement of the Reveille editors. In writing a record of events so eventful as ’Eighty-Seven’s, we have no need of calling to our aid muses and other such common place personages. Our deeds arc too brilliant in themselves by far, and render such aid superfluous. Listen! When we first entered Kenyon’s sacred halls we were in a remarkable condition of exuberant over-freshness, and proved our right to that distinction by our subsequent actions. We pastured a cow in a recitat ion-room, and the removal of it and the debris was quite expensive, and made a considerable vacuum in the damage deposit, something like fifty dollars. At another time we were seized by a chronic disease and removed the relics of the one-time Hubbard Hall—a noble action, almost unprecedented in college annals. As to our '‘rushes, we were undoubtedly successful in one. We had thirty men, our opponents five. Quite a discrepency, we acknowledge, but that does not affect the prestige of success. As to the other rush.” Well, we acknowledge that much could be said on both sides. But let us pass from these trifling successes trf those of more importance and more material value. In our various engagements with our Profs, we have everywhere met with success. In a word, Came, saw, and conquered.” By the aid of Bohns we utterly routed Bones with his Caii and Balbi. Greek we thundered down upon like a troop of cavalry. In Math.” we can most conscientiously affirm that we have gained from Devil’s winks a prodigious amount of mathematical ignorance. As to Billy, doubtless he would say, Of all classes, individually or col- lectively, we are the most thoroughly, completely, and altogether consecrated to our duties.” I his is sufficient to show what a remarkable history we possess, and in what condition we now are. As «a parting behest we urge our readers to direct Diogenes this way, if they should happen to met him ; or, if Plato and his satelites should cross their path, to notify him of the existence of this class, where all is wisdom, honor and modesty. w.p85 op Officers.

Peculiar class is Eighty-six— Of those composed always remiss When rights of students are at stake. And when term holiday we take, Alas, we find them too absent. They came t' obey the faculty And with a base servility I lave so pursued this from the start Until obeisance is their art. The nursery is still their home, And oft’ through fields and dales they roam With the professors' families, Where rumor says they're quite at case. Dud, most proficient in his aid, E’en thinks of nursing for a tiadc; Narcissus of a later date— Let him beware Narcissus' fate. Now all know and clearly see A class should have a pedigree, And while the noble George dost last Our Eighty-six must have a past. This prince, known by the evening glow Of sunsets in New Mexico— The first when boasting is the ease— As nurse must yield to second place. Now George a mighty man is he. Endowed with build of Hercules, With chest full twenty inches ’round And weight at least of eighty pounds. An arm a half a foot in girth. And strength enough to lift the earth. Behold the conquering hero coming— Pathetic hero of Wyoming. A visitor he had. Alas! A charming, yet strange, fair lass ; Ah, Bish, how came the stranger there? Tell us, who was the maiden fair ? The next is Clem Altissimus, What is above the clouds tell us, What things inhabit upper air ? In Luna—are there people there ? But Charley, in the nursing art. Does not, indeed, take any part. Nor does he yet in height surpass Other members of this wondrous class. • Tis his misfortune, not his fault. That he's too weary to himself exalt; For born both lazy and at ease He suffers still this strange disease, Vet in wanderings up and down Does manage frequent trips to town. For other members of this class We fain, indeed, must say, alas, The number of this class is small, For some have had a sudden fall; And though they entered many men— Like the saddest words of tongue or pen— rhey re of the class that might have been. f{ QreeK (tetter) Sra dy ■ SCENE I.—Premoent’s OrntL [Jesse% theJ iu.% dusting President’s office.] Whist! what’s this that’s come to me oi ?

It has not, as yet, been definitely ascertained, precisely at what minute, see ond or fraction of a second the following nocturnal episode occurred. Suffice it to say, however—for the special benefit of our numerous readers—that already the musical chimes in the tower of the neighboring chapel had signaled nine o’clock, a suitable hour for amours. For the interest of the male portion of the community who admire (just as if there were any) the fair sex, a brief dcscnj tion of this personangc would not, we imagine, be objectionable, at least to a large class of aspiring “mashers'' who are interested in all matters pertaining to enlightinent—on that point. In years, she was young, but not in experience. She had perhaps passed the age of “sweet sixteen her stature was of the medium size; her eyes had all the lustre of the brightest star, and her seraphic voice would have captivated even a Mcphistopheles. Words are inadequate to express the fasci nation of her bewitching smile. The time, as aforesaid, is night; the scene opens within the storied walk of Old Kenyon, whither this beauty, veiled as to her face, directs her footsteps. Silence reigns throughout the halls. Within a lighted room a Junior sits, intent upon his work. All at once, he hears, at his door a gentle tapping. What was his amazement, when, upon opening it, he beholds standing before him in all of her transcendent loveliness, a wistful looking blonde. It was rather an unac customed thing to see one of the delicate sex in such a place, especially, 3t that unseasonable hour of the night. That circumstance, combined with her mag charm of face and form, throws the young man into considerable confusion ant causes him to assume the color of the reddest rose. “Can you tell me, says she, where Mr. C------ rooms, a Senior, I verily be lieve ? ' I hiving partially recovered his composure, thus speaks “Ken ' the Junior. “Yes, madam, certainly, with the greatest pleasure; just across the hall. After thanking this courteous student, she departs. “Strange proceedings, very strange indeed.” “I declare though she’s pretty ‘flip.” ' “1 wonder where ‘Bish’ caught on.” These were some of the conjectures that presented themselves to the inquir- ing mind of the Junior as he sat musing within the quiet of his studio What, in the meanwhile, had become of the lady visitor ? Not finding the person whom she was seeking, the female abandons her project until some later period. Ascension stands hard by, and thither she proceeds: entering, she gropes her way through the halls, lighted, but dimly, knocks at a door, and is admit- ted. She seems bewildered, as it were, and by her manners, she is evidently in a desperate strait. “Will one of you gentlemen be so kind as to conduct me to the residence of Prof. C-----? I have come all of the way from Krie and know not where to find his worthy Sir. Not receiving much encouragement as regards immediate gallantry, she then was desirous of being escorted to the Motel de Kenyon. Ah! {mirabile die tit) the young men did not seem disposed to lend an aiding arm to this fair damsel. Cruel youths! How could you be so deaf to the eloquent entreaties of such as she ! Would you let her wander out into the darkness without being supported by the strong arm of protection ? Cruelty unspeakable! Such, however, is the timidity of undergraduates ; such is the weakness of human nature ; such is the prognostic of our degenerate times. Almost heart-broken, she wanders out beneath the stars, and is seen no more. Forsooth, even now, at this writing she may be wandering up and down this weary world without food, water or shelter! If any person be seen answering to the description of this blooming maiden, the parties for whom she was inquiring, earnestly requests that who- ever, in any way, at any time, in any place, or under whatever circumstances, meets with such a person, will confer upon them an everlasting debt of grati- tude, if she be shown to the said parties respective places of abode. Person or persons rendering such a charitable service will be most liberally rewarded. pn?sf?fflar} VJL ir e apd 5 JPP(?r- ‘•Man l� cing reasonable must get drunk ; The l)cst of life is but intoxication.

Without their sap how branchless were the trunk Of life’s strange tree so fruitful on occasion ; Hut to return get very drunk and when You wake with the headache, you shall sec What then.” Time has sped on in its never ending course, leaving in the infinite space be- hind, the year when first a Freshman class of Kenyon celebrated by a banquet the approaching end of its state of verdancy. By annual repetition, this event has become a custom, which requires of the class to be participants of the de- lights of the festal board, at a time coincident with that of the Senior's farewell supper. I low appropriate, how fitting is this custom. For, does not sympa- thy in deeds, as well as in words make the human heart full to overflowing with goodwill toward its fellow creatures? '88, a class noted for never being behind, in any thing it could not get out of, recognizing this principle of good will, re- solved to carry out this time honored custom. Otho was to furnish the sub stantials. Mt. Vernon the extras, (not Extra Dry). Now there arc five miles of long, dark road from Vernon to the Hill, over which this extra must travel. When any thing of great value is to be conveyed to a place, a strong escort usually accompanies it. So it was on that night, Whitie, Sam and Harry were deputed to be the bearers of this precious freight, and were told to spare neither life nor nag to bring it safely. Like secrets of State, so this momentous secret leaked out. When the clock in the steeple tolled nine, the Sophs might have been seen wending their way along the Vernon road, bent upon way lay- ing the unsuspecting Freshies. It chanced that Mickey and Guy just returning from the city, were met by this gang, who eager for plunder stopped the horse of Muldoon s friend and searched the buggy. Alas, nothing was found, the molested buggy was allowed to go on. Forward went the gang at a quick run, until it reached the back bone. Here hidden on each side of the road, it rested while awaiting the coining of the longed for three. Lo, a buggy begins the steep descent, every turn of the wheels and rolling of the keg, arouses more and more the Bacchanal anticipations of the would be highwaymen. Downward comes the buggy, more eager become the expectant Sophs. At last it reaches them, out jump Cleve followed by his shadow Primie, up jump the rest. Cleve clutches the horse’s bridle, while that thoroughbred from Otho's stud, disliking the restraint makes for the woods, threatening the entire annihilation of his drivers. The Sophs gather round sure now of their prize, but how transient are the hopes of men. Fate destined that Freshmen not Sophs should glut them- selves in this “nectar of the gods.” Cleve falling, looses his hold, the frightened steed breaks from him and flees down the hill as though the demons of Pluto’s kingdom, ami not disappointed and chagrined Sophs were pursuing him. With mad plunges obedient to nothing but his instinct, onward dashes the frightened beast, over the bridge, past ’88 coming to the relief, it stops not until the scene of altercation is left in the distance. Dire were the muttcrings of that relief corps. Swabbiq the Klder, fleet of foot, chased imaginary Sophs in the woods. Mickey and Oscar press to the front, hastening the steps of the hurry- ing throng, anxious lest they should loose what was to them the dearest of all the menu. While Doc., big as to his calves, keeps the middle of the throng lest his passion should tempt him to kill a Soph or two. There was “blood on the moon” when '88 heard of the object of the Sophs But the three are safe, as well as that which they brought, so homeward go the happy Freshmen, at a dis tancc safely follow the cussing Sophs. After much delay, the delighted youths file into the banquet hall. Oh. lan- guage fails me. Oh, where was a more magnificent feast prepared. Never did Jupiter give to gods on Olympus height such a feast as that. Never had a Ro- man in the palmiest days of his city beheld a more sumptuous feast. Never could the cafes of Paris, or even our own insuperable, insurpassable Delmonico (Mt. Vernon, O.) have excelled this glorious attempt of cuisine. But even the delights of the best dishes could not keep the thoughts of the party from the extras. Clio Chung now has full sway, toast after toast was proposed. Here was displayed that spirit of “good will and kindly feeling’ which so character izes this class. They began with the college and their class and drank toasts to everything under the heavens down to the post on which young Dud was vigor- ously expending his strength furnishing the music for the march. A stranger might have asked if the Salvation Army had struck the burg, but no it is the tramping of the Freshies, as they march around, headed by Dick wielding a stick with the grace of a true drum major, while Oscar sitting on the keg looks on with beaming countenance and approving grin. When, amidst this fantastic march of boys in gayer mood, the gentle zephyrs waft a scent across the room, which surely is not that made by Lundborg. it is more like something dead. I’hc cause of this perfume suddenly dawns upon the dismayed Freshies, it is a trick they would have considered even beneath themselves. Hut Bacchus has too firm a hold upon the revellers to allow asafeetida to overthrow him. The mad revel goes on becoming more and more hilarious, until finally four walls could not contain so wild a crew. Out into the open air they go and to- ward old Kenyon direct tiuir wandering steps. Some build a fire, while others led by Mac, th it fiend of noises, ascend the tower and bring such noises from the bell, as college bell ne’er gave off before. The sleeping students awake and for the nonce, in that moment between sleeping and wakening, believe them selves witnesses of the orgies of the foul fiends of Hell. The imps of darkness seem to issue from that fiery hole in the ground and yell demoniac yells as they dance the da ice of the prince of darkness. But in an instant they know it is hut the Freshmen coming from their supper. An experience they all have had themselves, so retire to their couches disgusted with themselves for their mo- mentary excitement. At last exhausted, one by one the wearied Frcshm.m slip off to their rooms. Soon college is in darkness and in calm, save one room which is not in old Kenyon. In this room are those who think the “shank' o! the evening should be as merry as the “neck. Sam fatigued resting on the bed and I —n playing cards can recall their names without aid. In running they say a person can get his second wind. I think that all, providing nature has caused the same phenomenon to happen in other physical exertions of man. At least it seemed to be the case with these youths, who were down ing with furious zeal the remaining Vcrzenay. Man’s capacity what a great and infinite thing, especially when found in a college man! Three of the occupants of the aforesaid room were not content with that which they had, but desired more. An idea came to their befoggled brains that three bottles of the spark- ing fluid had been dropped during the altercation. Imbued with this idea these three geniuses, deserving of immortal fame for their pcrseverences in the pur- suit of pleasure, commence their journey to the distant spot. No devotees of any Eastern religious faith ever undertook a pilgrimage to a sacred shrine, under more doubtful or unfavorable circumstances. Nor did they go with a more fixed purpose, or greater zeal than did these three worshippers at the shrine ol Bacchus. Long they sought and much they invoked the gods, but alas the bot- tles were not forthcoming. If they had been lost they were lost forever. Phoebus peeping over the Eastern hills smiled benignly upon these sad, forlorn creatures as they crept slowly back to the College Hill. This was the last chapter of an event which is so important and so enjoyable to a Freshman. All things had passed off nobly. But when the college bell, having changed its tune, rang out for recitations, it could hardly be called a noble looking crowd that went to Freshmen recitations that mornmg. Byron should have been their instructor in their wakening moments, and all might have been different. For the benefit of 89. we quote his mode of overcoming the effects of the night before : “ King for your valet—bid him quickly bring Sonic hock and soda water, then you'll know A pleasure worthy Xerxes the great king ; For not the blest shcrhcit sublimed with snow Nor Iturgumly in all its sunset glow, After long travel, ennui love or slaughter. Vie with that draught of hock and soda water.” Stye T urder Scene I. Room in the Sent.—Dutchy Reading a Rime Navel. Dutchy — Ye Gods! VVliat a murder! My flesh doth crawl. My hairs stand on end in thinking of it. I cannot sleep this night, except forth from my mind I drive these horrid images. (Rises and paces the foot. A noise overhead as of persons struggling) Ha ! The boys are on a lark. Ill up and in their sport will rid myself of these foul fantacies. (Goes out hntpresently returns.) Wlut doth it me in ? Did my ears deceive me? No ! I heard struggling ab ve. I ni sure of it. I rushed up, and—all was dark. The door was locked. I listened, b it no so.m I met my eager ear. I cannot stay alone; that hideous look, together with the ghastly sounds which I this night have heard, hath so unstrung my nerves that my courage hath deserted. I’ll seek Douglas, and under his eye renew my strength. (Noise overhead begins again: Dutchy starts.) ’ I is true! my ears deceived me not. Kaye is being murdered—tin- villain took him unawares—else no single man could manage him. Oh, if I were strong ! Oh, that I were K iglish ! I would up and to his rescue go. The door, fast locked, would fall before me, and the assassin, terror stricken at ray fourfold strength, would yield his arms without a blow. Bat alas ! alone I can do nothing. I will seek Douglas.

What can we do ? Oh, that 1 had not left my bed! He would not harm me there. DutchY—Douglas, me thinks you fear; take courage, the strength of forty men is in my fibers. The terror which just now oppressed me hath van- ished ; take part of my courage, I have enough for two. (Dutchy and Douglas appear. Dutchy with a stick of woody Douglas with a lantern.) What, still you qu%ake; be more firm, or soon you’ll fall and let your light go out. Ne’er thought 1 that so short a form could be unstable. Douglas—You mistake me. I do not fear; all the fiends of Hades could not make me run; but you see---- (They approach the door.) Dutchy—The door is locked, we must break it down. (Dutchy fur us the knob and pushes—the door flies open.) My George! ’tisdone; the fiend has flown, the murderer has escaped; the glory that was to have beeh ours has vanished. Douglas—Gone do you say ! Why, he passed not down the stairs, we met him not. Dutchy—True! - The assassin hides within—within is dark. With your lantern, Douglas, enter first, I will follow and will fight. Douglas—No, you must fight; therefore enter first, I will light your way. Dutciiy—I will seek Howard; keep watch til I return. (Exit Dutchy.) Dougijvs—( Looks around’, peeps into the room, dr airs back.) What do I see! Two balls of fire; they move, they are the eyes of the murderer; he glares at me; if I could run, but my legs refuse to move. (Re-enter Dutchy.) Dutchy—Oh, Douglas! Howard, too, hath perished; his room is dark, and no one is within ; Howard is not wont to bum around and prowl about in darkness; this time of night ne’er finds him off his bed. Douglas—(Pointing into the room.) What is it Dutchy ? Throw your wood. Dutchy—That's not a man—the devil himself hath done the work. Douglas—Throw your wood—see, he moves. Dutchy—I can’t, my arm hath lost its power; my limbs do not obey; nor is my hand able to raise the stick it clasps. He comes! Douglas—Let’s flee. Dutchy—I’m fastened to the floor, I cannot move. Douglas—Nor I. (Almet's dog comes out.) Douglas—Ha, ha, ha, ’twas the dog you heard. Dutchy—The dog ! Man, I tell thee, it was not—no dog could make the noise 1 heard. Even now Kaye lies in his own blood. Go in with your lantern. Douglas—You go first. (Dutchy enfets.) Dutchy—There’s nothing here, nor any sign of struggling. Let us to the bedroom. Douglas—No; let us go back, it was the dog that you heard; do not go behind the curtain. Dutchy—I heard a noise, and I will find the cause. Hold your light. (Dutchy dtaws aside the cut tain and looks in.) I told you so. Sec Kaye lies dead, murdered upon his couch. Douglas—Where ?

V [AMES, if you please, and dates,” said Bones. It was the first Mon- X day morning of Kighty-eight’s existence. Long and weary hours had the Freshmen spent poring over that ancient and antiquated work, Arnolds Latin Prose. They had mastered the fact that “ Caius had entered into a part- nership with Balbus,” and had realized that ‘'verbs of smelling take the accusa- tive of the thing smelt ” (see Chap. X). But to write Latin dates was too many for them. The grades on that lesson ranged from 8 to 18. Then they braced. Sunday afternoon was devoted to Balbus, and Bones smiled, for the class made progress in his favorite study. But like everything else, Latin Prose has an end, and at last this end came. “ Names, if you please, etc.,” had sounded for the last time. “ You and Balbus and Caius had fought your last campaign—had held up your hands ” (this last in token of surrender). The class had long looked forward to this joyous time, and now they were jubilant. They resolved to celebrate. Balbus must be burned. Great were the preparations; mighty the paean written by the class poet. At last the appointed night arrived. Twelve o’clock beheld the class march- ing from out the walls of Kenyon, clad in robes of spotless white, «and singing joyous anthems. First came the corpse, on a magnificent funeral car, drawn by twelve milk-white steers, sacred to Jove; then followed the pontifex maximus, attended by two brawny lictors bearing the customary fasces. Then marched the various orators, each with his «attendant lictor, and a titrba innumerabilisFrtsk znrontm closed the rear, and as they marched they sang a joyous song set to classic music ( . e. “The Sour Apple Tree”), and this was the burden of the refrain : “ Vale, vale, vale Balbe, 44 Vale, vale, vale Balbe, 44 Vale, vale, vale Balbe, 44 Nam tu mot tuns es. ” Round and round the campus inarched the train, louder and louder grew the song, until at last the blazing funeral pyre was reached. Here, flentes multa. were gathered Caius and You, and He, and Hones, and many other lesser allies of the departed ; here were performed the last sad rites, and the body committed to the flames. High blazed the fire, mournfully tolled the college bell, and the Freshmen howled and yelled in their glee, as they circled round the pyre. And then they whooped her up till morning, and while yet the day was young, they all returned their several ways to their accustomed tasks, rejoicing that Halhus was no more, and singing the praises of mighty Kighty eight.
