Memorie di Brown; tradizioni e ricordi raccolti da molte fonti. La forza del themanuscript esposto da Judson, su cui è stato registrato il disegno di legge contro i Fratelli, ha indicato che non era un piccolo affare. Con apparente riluttanza, e un po' di aria ferita, la commissione del societismo filermeniano si ritirò, e i Fratelli presero il dibattito nel punto in cui fu interrotta; Ma manifestamente era stato raggiunto il cli-max di interesse per la serata, e i teorici, eloquenti come erano, non potevano riportare i matricola alle considerazioni che prima di loro erano quando Giuda

Memories of Brown; traditions and recollections gathered from many sources . ength of themanuscript exhibited by Judson, on which the bill againstthe Brothers was recorded, indicated that it was no smallaffair. With apparent reluctance, and somewhat of aninjured air, the committee from the Philermenian societynow withdrew, and the Brothers took up the debate at thepoint at which it was interrupted; but manifestly the cli-max of interest for the evening had been reached, and theorators, eloquent as they were, could not bring theastounded freshmen back to the considerations beforethem when Judson and his associates made their appear-ance. Both societies long ago reached the point of dissolution, an unfortunate affair, as I think, in the history of the col-lege.
