September 30th we received a letter from Williams asking us to play them at Williamstown and giving us two dates, October 23rd and 27th. We answered that we would play on the 23rd. October 7th, a week later, Williams telegraphed, "am sorry, but cannot play you after all." The following day we learned that Yale was to play at Williamstown the 23rd...
There were twelve men present in Holden Chapel last night, and by a unanimous vote decided to accept the plan, as proposed, to regulate the expenses of the Foot-Ball Association. The meeting then broke up. Later on, four men presented themselves and waited twenty minutes wondering when the meeting was going to begin.

There were no university lecture-rooms, no colleges of any kind; these, together with a fixed tuition fee, are later improvements to universities. The students paid their tuition fees to the professors, and absolutely forebade any "cutting" on their part without previous permission from the rector of the students.

Dr. McKenzie opened the service with a prayer. After the reading of the 34th Psalm, Rev. Dr. F. G. Peabody made an address on the text from St. John, 11th chap. and 45th verse: "But went thence unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim." There is throughout the whole life of Jesus this continual contrast of society and solitude...
