In 1882, the methods of Bible study were reorganized, and instead of the daily classes, to which no serious study had been given, two hours a week of "examinable instruction" were substituted. In this year also the gymnasium was refitted under the supervision of Doctor D. A. Sargent of Harvard.

Henri was twenty, Pauline seventeen and Joseph only three. There was no love lost between the old maid and her relatives. In the spring of the year 1882 Queen Hortense suddenly fell sick. The neighbors called in a physician, whom she immediately drove out. A priest then having presented himself, she jumped out of bed, in order to throw him out of the house.

~The Great International of 1882.~ The eleven who were chosen to do battle for Scotland in this contest, close upon nine years ago, were considered in many respects the best that had ever donned International caps in any tussle before or since, and a better illustration of the wisdom of the Association Committee in their selection could not have been given than the result itself viz., Scotland, five goals; England, one.

If we take the value for motive power of the different qualities of gas as given in Mr. Charles Hunt's interesting paper in our Transactions for 1882, C might without any great error be taken as 22 and K as 7.5.

Further on was a camp of insurgents little, thin, brown fellows, ragged, dirty, shoeless each with a sugar-loaf straw hat, a Remington rifle of the pattern of 1882, or a brand new Krag-Jorgensen donated by Uncle Sam, and the inevitable and ever ready machéte swinging in a case of embossed leather on the left hip.

They were either not intended to be copies of particular species, or, if so intended, the artist's skill was wholly inadequate for his purpose. Some remarks by Dr. Coues, quoted in an article by E. A. Barber on Mound Pipes in the American Naturalist for April, 1882, are so apropos to the subject that they are here reprinted.

The trustees gave me permission to go to Boston on certain days of each week, and we soon found that I could carry on my work as a medical student without in the least neglecting my duty toward my parish. I entered the Boston Medical School in 1882, and obtained my diploma as a full-fledged physician in 1885.

The church, restored in 1882, retains little of interest. There are piscinas in the chancel and in a small N. chapel, and a small squint in the N. chancel pier. Woolverton, a village 4 m.
