...Emmanuel College, England, in 1623, and after much persecution from Archbishop Laud of London, sailed for New England in the ship Defence. He arrived in Boston, October 3, 1635, and came to Newtowne (now Cambridge) October 5. A company of some sixty persons soon followed Shepard, and resolved to remain and organize themselves into a church. Suitable arrangements having been made, on the first day of February, 1636 (corresponding to February 11, new style,) a church, the first permanent one in Cambridge was duly organized...
When the sun rose Wednesday morning, Dec. 22, it did not find the college yard wholly deserted nor the dormitories wholly vacant. A few men always have to remain in Cambridge during the vacations, either because the distance to be travelled homeward is too long, or because those who have to travel it are too "short;" and as usual there were left in Cambridge during the last recess one or two men to guard each entry of the dormitories in the absence of the proctors, and in all, seventy-five or a hundred to form quite an active colony around...

An absurdly futile attempt was made, somewhile ago, to ascertain whether a moderate Liberal candidate could be run at the General Election with any chance of success, but we believe that the result showed that any such attempt would be attended with nothing but a considerable loss of money...
...gymnasium is sadly deficient in the apparatus for drying clothes. There are, to be sure, the steam pipes in the back of the lockers, but every one who has had any experience in the matter knows that clothes in the lockers never dry, no matter how long they remain there. Besides this there is one radiator in the bathroom. Probably it was not intended for a drying machine; but that is what it is used for, and it does its work well. One, however, is not enough for all the men who wish to use it. There ought...
