Not civilization, not intelligence, not knowledge, but the true uplifting power of the model genius of God's few heroes is of the highest value to the world. Greece, Rome, Italy fell of their own corruption. England, America will fall if they refuse the message...

The class of '84 contained nearly 190 members, and the class of '83 was nearly as large. In the succeeding years, however, the size of the incoming classes fell off, and the Yale authorities were unable to attribute the decline to any more substantial reason than hard times.
