The object of the article which is "to select and group together everything that is positively established as to John Harvard," makes it perhaps the most distinctly valuable contribution that has yet appeared in the Monthly.

...great and increasing interest in athletics has lately been shown at the University of Pennsylvania. There is scarcely a branch in which a creditable showing has not been made. Pennsylvania's supremacy among the colleges in cricket is well known; this is a natural result of the location of the college in Philadelphia, where cricket is the popular game...
