'l'lll'l Y.'Xl,l'I SIIINGLIC. 47 DAN11-11, AUoUs'1'lNr: MLIlil'llX', Danbury, Conn., left us in the spring of last year. Dr:NN1s OiNI'2ll.l., jr., B. A., Holyoke, Mass., after furnishing us no end of amusement, departed to join a professional base ball team. Wi1.1.1.xM S'1'1f:R1.iNo P1s'1'1c1:s, Brooklyn, N. Y., went abroad towards the close of the Junior year and has failed to resume his old place by the side of his source of legal knowledge. Gifzoiaoic FosT1-:la SAN1-'oium, New Haven, Conn., is now a member of the Junior class of the Lan' School. VVIIMAM RANDOLPH SCHARTON, New Haven, Conn., also reflected on the judgment of the Faculty by insisting on a three years' course instead of two. lim E1xmNu1f:i. SICIIJLI-Z, Leighton, Pa., completed Junior year very creditably to himself, but never returned last fall. Gisonom PIOWARIJ S'rR1s1s'1', Exeter, N. H., excited our admiration in many ways, when semi-occasionally he attended a recitation, but left off altogether before the spell was broken. Roums BLACKBURNE Woomvamm, after one year's connection with thc class, gave up the study of law, and is now living at home in Brooklyn, N. Y.

46 'l'lll'1 YALIC SIIINULIC. CLARK SMITH BISHOP, New London, Conn., answered in silvery tones to roll-call all during Junior year, but only. remained with us a few days after the beginning of this year. NI1X1iVlN Duomo BU'1 rI.19s, New York City, appeared at recitations a few times during Junior year-enough to enable us to coniidently distinguish him from the flaxen-haired Buttle-but has not since renewed his connection with the class. PIOWICLI, ClIl'INPlX', Manchester, Conn., left in Junior year on account of his eyes, and travelled in South America until the complications in Brazil ren- dered further sojourn undesirable, when he returned to his home. wVAl.'l'l'IR Fonwmui Cmiaii, died on the day the Law School opened last September. James IIENRY FOLLIS, San Francisco, Cal., alias Tolls, Tollis, etc., signed the Secretary's book, but, as far as we are aware, had no further connection with the Law School. B1f:11N,xnn Josrzvn CiRlCClI, New llaven Conn,, did not rejoin the class last fall. Jixcoia HUMPHIU-zx' G1:151cN, Hartford, Conn., made us a few visits in the fall of Junior year, but has not reappeared.

school. How proud he seemed as he pointed out the JUNIOR YEAR. Well do we remember the day when we first made our appearance at the Yale Law School, after having climbed the beautiful stairway to the palatial quarters, where we were for two years to grind out enough law to enable us to finally try dog cases before Jus- tices of the Peace, in our native towns. The hrst impression of our new home was indeed one never to bc forgotten. If by chance, we hap- pened to have any cspccial friend in the Senior class, he was sure to wish to show us thc sights of the library, with its rows of pondcrous legal tomcs, in a subdued whisper, designated the presiding t of thc spot, Dr. Robinson: then escorted us on toe to thc door of the sanclmzz szrfzffoffzzm, where Dean sat on his throne of state presiding over destinics of thc school. Finally he explained beauties of the Yale system, and commenced and lcity tip- the the the the often repeated discussion as to the respective merits of the text book and the case methods. We were shown also the room where we were to receive instruction in the intricacies of the law, and noticed with pride the magnificent busts upon the walls, and decided that when we were graduated we would present the school with a composite bust of our class, thus typifymg the young idea and perpetuating the glory of ,Q4 to future generations of law students.
