SCENE, Library. (Two old-clo' men speak to a dig at the table.) "I see you don't allow strangers in here; but we are not going to stay long. Are going right...
...order to prove the true value of such "surmising," that the course referred to is Latin II., and that the instructor in question is no other than Professor Greenough. We have witnessed many rude, unpardonable assaults of injudicious hotheads upon instructors, but that committed by the Echo, allow me to say, is an outrage on public decency.

In other words, the way in which instruction is given at Harvard produces the same effect, regard being had to the Boylston Prizes, as a close corporation. To bring up the department of elocution to the proper standard we need more instructors. If these cannot be furnished by the College...
