Book excerpt: Excerpt from Quindecennial Record of the Class of Eighteen Hundred and Ninety Four A mingled compilation of Class gossip, gentle twitting of old pals with their various frailties and inside talks from the heart out. Designed as 3 Who's Who in '94 and to recall old memories and the days when most of us knew little law and abided by less; when ailments were few and our only medicine that which is to this day prescribed for indispositions following Class reunions; when our Reverends were Sandy and Hop and Army and Jim, and our Profs. Were Charley an'd Doggy and Irish; the days when touch-downs, base-hits and exams, in the order named, were as important as the pay-day of the present. The product of tears, cajolery, threats, many harsh thoughts and much travail, all entailing the loss of a once really sweet disposition.
