"Wo iMiist all did 

 All kavo ourselvos, it matters not where, when, 

 Nor how, so we die well; and can that man that does so, 

 Need lamentations for him?" 



Words are but empty comfort and we cannot express our sorrow for 

 those who have been bereaved, but may it be some consolation to them 

 to know that the hearts of the College friends go out to them in 

 sympathy.
