introduction. EHOLD in the year eighteen hundred and ninety-one and the seventeenth day of the fifth month of the same there was a meeting of the class of ' 93 to decide whether to walk in the footsteps of its fathers and put forth to the S. U. I. world a second edition of the HAWKEYE. And it seemed good to the class of ' 93 to continue to walk in the paths of its forefathers and issue a JUNIOR ANNUAL. And after it had pleased the class of ' 93 to do this thing a great assembly was made and the wisest and most skilled were bade go forth and gather material of every kind from high and low, from far and near, to build a temple wherein the fame of this people should have a resting place.

The Chronological editor made account of every day and all that came to pass on the same. And behold thus many dates and events were made one. This thing seems strange, tho ' true: all humor is either male or female. Behold these people were a humorous people and two editors were dispatched to look out all manner of funny jokes, each after his own kind.
