Freshman history Be it known unto ye that, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and two, there came forth from far and near, from the east and the west, and the north and the south, nine and twenty Pilgrims in search of Hobart, the far-famed shrine of knowledge. Long and bravely had they travelled and now, when they were come near unto the far-famed land, visions of peaceful study possessed their innocent minds. But it so happened that when they were yet afar off, certain wise men of the land had news of their approach and went forth to meet them. And it came to pass that when the noble band had purchased seats in the Tabernacle and had procured for themselves all things which were deemed necessary for their welfare, certain wise men prophesied unto them, saying, “ Brethren, on account of your immature years and lack of experience, it hath by the council been ordained that ye shall be called Freshmen. Be it known unto ye furthermore that, according to the ancient and worthy custom of our land, there can be no peace in the realm until most awful war hath been fought. For it so happens that there are in our land certain ol’ er Pilgrims whose learning and experience is scarcely superior to your own, who are hostile to ye and must be con- quered.” Now when the noble Pilgrims heard the things which the wise men spake unto them they were exceeding wroth against the hostile band and declared war against them. And it came to pass that for seven days and seven nights most awful conflict raged. But on the morning of the eighth day, so bravely had the Freshmen fought that the hostile band was conquered and there was peace in the land for many days. After some time pleasantly spent in the realm of Euclid, Horace and Homer the valiant Freshmen raised on high their noble banner and bade defiance to the hostile force. When at last the wide-awake S-ph-mores awoke from their slumbers and beheld the sacred emblem, they rushed forth and met the noble Freshmen in most terrible battle. But the gallant band were invincible and on the morning after the conflict, still could be seen, by the dawn’s early light, the noble emblem of the class of naughty six. 25
