Excerpt from The Yale Literary Magazine, 1856, Vol. 21 The annual society campaign has been brought to a close. In one or the other of our two Literary Societies have all of the newly entered members of our College enlisted themselves, for four years or the war. During this campaign, our Societies, so nearly identical in all that properly distinguishes literary bodies, so nearly akin in their most peculiar features, and so intimately connected in their in¿uence on Col lege Improvement, have waged a war of extermination. Forgetting that the conduct of the two Societies is of vital interest as affecting the advancement, literary and oratorical, of the members, and sinking steady perseverance in the exercises into a station second to more number of members, we observe partisans of either cause, engaged in a strife for a nominal victory, as short lived as it is factitious.
