bers, we made a dignified and awe-inspiring procession. After the burial we assisted at the supper given at the Sun Inn, and passed a social evening in spite of the predictions of outsiders, whose ideas of pleasure differed from ours, and who would have filled up a blank left by us in the bill of fare. With all our troubles, and they were many, our first year of stu- dent life was very pleasant ; and the monotony we find now was broken by after-supper drills, bonfires, raids, torpedo experiments, tableaux, etc., none of which would be proper for us now, not being Freshmen. We commenced this year with fewer men, but were still the lar- gest Sophomore class yet known here, and had just settled down to work when almost half the class left us. We lost a few through hazing, and though it was properly hazing we believe they would still have been with us had it not been for the ex- aggerated reports of the affair made by a little paper published in town, zealous for the right, and particularly so for items, and from it spread to other papers in the country. In athletics we have always held the foremost place. At first McNulty, who was our big man, took everything, and so leaving nothing for the rest of the class to do, was regarded as the only man to be feared. So much so was this the case that when he left, none of the best men of other classes would train, as they were confident of their success and, as usual in such cases, they were beaten. We, as a class, have taken over 60 per cent, of the prizes since we entered, and there is no reason why we may not do as well in future, as last meeting showed our dependence was not on a single man. My history is finished, so adieu till we meet again, which will, let us hope, be as Juniors. Historian. 19
