...drop, the Medical School veering around on the cleats in a most obliging manner. Valiantly the M. D.'s braced to their work, however, and by hard fighting gained back considerable rope, but in vain. The law did not release its grip, but held on bravely to the end. The Victorians team were, Hemenway, '81; Lane, '82; Cook, '82 (capt.); Andrews...

Possibly the stealthy creep of prejudice over our judgments may have been the cause of our verdict; but we certainly arrived at the conclusion...

It is not until this evening, however, that any visible result of its existence can be seen. Whatever opinions one may hold as to the question of total abstinence, no one can doubt that the society has chosen the best and most persuasive way of spreading its principles.
