Henry Warren Torrey, LL. D., McLean Professor of Ancient and Modern History, Emeritus, died last night at his home at 20 Oxford street. He was taken ill just a week ago with a cold and his strength rapidly failed him. It was the sudden weakening rather than the violence of the disease which hastened his death.

Back of the main building will be a separate house which will contain dry rooms and heating apparatus...

The expense certainly...

Skating is the finest exercise which can be had in the open air in the cold season, and an opportunity to enjoy it near at hand would be welcomed by a large body of students who spend their afternoons in hot rooms, because they have not time to go to Fresh Pond, or Arlington, or Jamaica Pond. The gymnasium is undeniably unable to reach many...
