(i r r r t i n u Another volume of the Colonial Echo is before vou with our best wishes. We make no pretence of excellence, only clainiing to have done our dutv as best we could. In all our arduous labors, we have never been unmindful ot the source of our inspiration, the sacred reverence tor the trlorv ot our Alma Mater, so closely interwoven with the memories ot Colonial ' irginia. We have endeavored to embody in this little volume, only w hat has the greatest claim to merit, what best represents our college life, and what, in later years, when in a reminiscent mood we excavate this time-worn volume from its hiding place, will give us the most vivid and the most pleasant pic- ture of The days that are no more Gentle reader, then judge our aim I Should we have tailed, to us alone attribute all the blame. But to all we do proclaim that duty done makes less poignant each bit ot censure. We ask you to view our work with a kindlv eye, and when hostile criticism boils within you, remember that we are but a band ot untempered youth. We desire to express our deep gratitude to all those who have so kindly extended to us their aid, and again we beg your kind in- dulgence. The Board.
