TO THE EDITORS OF THE CRIMSON: -
MAY I be allowed to say a word as to who the persons are to whom the credit is due of having made the Junior Class Supper a success? There was a committee of ten appointed originally, but as this number was found too large, a special committee of three was selected from them to attend to the actual arrangements of the dinner. To these three gentlemen, Messrs. Buell, Blodgett, and Chase, the thanks of the Class, which have been so variously bestowed, are due.
M.To the Withdrawers from the New Shakspere Society.
GENTLEMEN, - I have received your note, and have struck your names out of the Society's List.
On the point taken by you, opinions differ. My opinion is that "the duty" of the New Shakspere Society is to mind its own business, that is, to study Shakspere, and do the work it has set itself in its Prospectus; not to gad about interfering in its members' quarrels.
I regard as an impertinence your intrusion of yourselves into a dispute-declared by me to be private between Mr. HI. - Phillipps and myself, and I am now glad to be rid of you, whose return for the faithful work I have given you (and others), is this present censorious caballing against me.
F. J. FURNIVALL.
