"The Yankee garrison was encamped on the green outside the wall south of the campus, and they also had a club and played ball. After our 'walk over' of the Columbia boys the garrison sent us a challenge. The challenge came to me as secretary of the club.. I called a meeting of the club and laid the challenge before them. After several fiery speeches it was unanimously resolved to decline the challenge, and I was instructed to so inform he Yankee club. I did so, and several spicy communications passed between us." | "The Yankee garrison was encamped on the green outside the wall south of the campus, and they also had a club and played ball.
