...communication in regard to Williams, if the facts given in it can be substantiated, is a very acceptable document. Nothing is more unfortunate in the relations we hold with other colleges, than that unfriendly feelings should be engendered by unfounded reports. We are always more than glad to be able to refute such reports. We wish to say one word in regard to the present case, however, before final judgment is passed upon it. The writer of to-day's communication really proves nothing concerning the base-ball men. He simply denies the charge, declaring that documents were brought...
...incident of the reception, of unusual interest, was the presentation by Prof. Parker in the name of Cambridge University, England, of greetings, engrossed on parchment, to President Eliot in the name of Harvard. This document is inscribed in Latin, with Greek quotations, and expresses the best wishes of old Cambridge University to the new, and the hope that the strong ties which binds the two counties may be made the stronger by such occasions as these. Accompanying the parchment, the seal of the English university enclosed in an engraved solid silver casket was presented...

But no statement has been made in the petition which has not been carefully considered by those who have tried to think clearly and conscientiously on the topic; no stand has been taken without being thoroughly discussed. Accordingly...
...Cambridge police, we think we may be pardoned, if, under the circumstances, we decline their society. Although a member of the faculty may enter a student's room at pleasure, a policeman cannot enter without a search warrant sworn out for that particular room. Therefore, unless this document is presented in regular form, no man need feel obliged to admit anyone, save the college authorities. On the other hand, every man is at liberty to protect his room from intrusion in any way that may seem best. In truth, either a policeman's billy, hat, or belt make a much...
