...reached us last summer that Harvard had thus refused to row, we were not at all surprised, remembering as we did the ways in which Harvard had attempted (and had too well succeeded) in having her say as regards the contests with us; and we were pleased when we heard that one of her own men had vigorously put a veto upon such conduct.

...through lack of time, to give the course of lectures on Buddhism announced in the catalogue. This subject has, of late, been receiving special attention among scholars, and the results of their investigations would be of great interest just now to the great majority of students. Every one who heard Prof. Lanman's lectures on the Vedas last year will well understand what he has lost by the omission this year of this course on Buddhism.
