University Intellectual Leader,
Harvard University,
Cambridge, Mass.
Dear Student Leader:
I take this opportunity of presenting my book "The Angels" to your most enlightened and courageous body, the Harvard University students, on condition that it is read in open caucus and discussed by the said august student body in the following manner.
That students of the Harvard University be voted into the officers of King, President, Marshal, Speaker, Jester, and the following officers. The officer Britannia must be a coed, and her knights are as follows: Sir Amadorr, Sir Homodorr, Sir Fedelidorr, Sir Paleodorr, Sir Florodorr, Sir Animadorr, and Sir Lexidorr. The officers Columbia must also be a coed, and her knights are as follows: Officer Diodorr, Officer Geodorr, Officer Astrodorr, Officer Philosodorr, Officer Heliodorr, Officer Logosodorr, and Officer Phrenodorr. The Lady Legend Keeper and seven Lady Officers who are readers in the Temple ought also to be coeds. That "The Temple of Peace" be read from the book in the order given by the representative officers and lady officers of the Knights of the Commonwealths in the same manner affected by actors in a regular play. And I am sure that the whole affair will be found most interesting and edifying. Sincerely yours, C. M. Marshall, 2082 St. Hubert Street, Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
(Ed. Note: The above communication, addressed to "The University Intellectual Leader," arrived in Cambridge yesterday, and was almost immediately directed to the executive offices of the CRIMSON. Anyone considering himself the University Intellectual Leader may call at the CRIMSON offices and claim his rightful property in the form of the original.)
