DWIGHT dilutes into a letter which fills three
columns of LAY GorLp's Tribune We trust
that the Yale students will take warning from
prof DwtcIt1's tiresome prolixity and thin rea-
soning and see the advantage Of expressing
their thoughts closely and succinctly. One Of
Prof DwIcur's weakest points Is this:

MIR. BEECHEn's case has never had a full In
vestieation. as Prof. TIMOTHY DWIGHT must
know. II he is capable Of knowing what an hon

Jury with his explanations failed n LIT of his
shoulders the burden Of guilt. The result. such
as II was. was therefore far from favorable: It
