Realizing that the afternoon was fast slipping away we were obliged to return to the Park where some had their fortunes told, while others bought various little trinkets to keep in t-emernbr-ance of the happiest day in the class records.

Indeed, did they not only bear cheerfully all tge heavy expenses of the day's excursion but also proved themselves to be most delightfully agreeable and entertaining. It was a tired but very happy crowd that strolled up College Hill that night, for the day had been a glorious one and will never be forgotten by the members of the class of 1907. 70
