the flesh of the whale and esteem II

no reason whatever why hereafter 1t

any OF the nations which are engaged
in the pursuit OF this monster OF the

Two-Man Alumni
Association Holds
Its Reunion Here

Their ranks unbroken by time, the
members Of the class of IS of Erskine
College are holding q reunion in this
city-both Of them. The two-man alumni
association consists of j. ]. Darlington.
an attorney-at-law. of this city. and
James NJ. Galloway. of Corsicana, Tex.
Mr.. Darlington was the first student
to graduate from Erskine College, at Due
West. S. c., after the civil war. Like
most of the Southern colleges, Erskine
was forced to close its doors at the out
break Of the civil war because all of the
students went into the army. In 1861
Erskine graduated a class of thirty-seven
young men. most of whom enlisted for
the war. No more diplomas were issued
until 1855. when a class of two. consisting
Of Mr.. Darlington and Mr.. Galloway, was
graduated.
Both Mr.. Darlington and Mr.. Galloway
attended the recent commencement at
Erskine, and Mr.. Galloway came North
to visit. Hence the establishment of
what is believed to be record for alumni

Eileen: Your excessive flesh can easily
