The most serious is, as I pointed out in a previous letter, the absence of any special reason strong enough to supply motive power to keep the club going. Though there are half a hundred reasons for desiring the club...
...skirmishers, and if he gets past them he is met by the main body of boys who rush at him with a howl and inform him of the sole reliableness of the paper which happens to comprise the greater part of their stock.
