TheVi versity register bears the
names o over two hundred students, i? teaking of the register, u
very plea ant half hour can be spent
in lookiu over the lists of names of
those wife have attended here in
years pail. One of the features
which calght the writer's eye in
such a retrospect, was a pledge af
fixed to tie usual pledge of obeying
all the University's laws, that none
who signcfl their names to the reg>
ister, would join any other than the
Demosthepian or Phi Kappa societies. Thib was in '76, and was a
relic of llie anti-fraternity rules
which were in force at that time.
The University is always ahead!
Upon his fisit home for Xmas, MrThreadcralt, '90, visited Tybee, near
Savannah, end there sought inspiration from pe waves of the sea, for
the manufacture of such eloquence
as would startle his Phi-Kappa com
panions on his return to the University. But that was not enough. How
brilliant idea it would be to write a
tale of distress by shipwreck at sea,
and to entrust it to the waves for the
enlightenment of the finder. No
sooner said than done, he immediately pens a tale of how he is shipwrecked upon a desert isle, sur
rounded by cannibals; how he never
expects to reach his home in safety,
but how lie sends forth this appeal
to the world so that any who read,
could send a rescuing party to him.
He then placed this touching i lis^ile
into a bottle, and with muUei ed invocations, tightly corks it, up and
throws it into the bosom of thegrcat
sea. But the sequel remains to be
told: A few days ago an Augusta I
paper contained the startling announcement Ilia* a lioltle had b,>en
found containing the story of a shipwrecked mariner, and gives to the
public a pathetic- appeal to go to his
rescue. And now comes in theapMi
