Excerpt from Memories of Brown: Traditions and Recollections Gathered From Many Sources To the mass of material thus provided, large additions have been made from a variety of sources. Alumni, old periodicals and, in one conspicuous instance, ancient letters hitherto unpublished have been drawn upon. It has also been necessary to excise and modify at many points for the sake of producing a symmetrical whole and at the same time conforming to the limits arbitrarily im posed upon the enterprise. If in this amendatory process matter as valuable and interesting as any that appears has been sacrificed, the editors can answer only that they have had to be guided by divers reasons not always ap parent to the individual writer.
