...piano-forte recital by Prof. Paine in Boylston Hall will undoubtedly attract a large audience. The only objection to these concerts in past years has been the small hall in which they were held. The hall in Boylston was always crowded to its utmost, and probably will be so tonight. As the hall is a very close and uncomfortable one, we see no reason why a larger one should not be used.

The nine carries with it to Providence our earnest wishes for its success...

For lodgings, fuel, and all the rest his only hope lies in a scholarship. He does his utmost to obtain it, and if successful he has at least enough to keep him from starving. However, his 150 to 300 rubles do not permit him to go into good society, nor is his company desired at the professor's house. But if he fails to get the scholarship, than...
