In uttering them, he looked at me with a su- percilious grin, and the question was addressed to the opposite side of the house, between which and the speaker there was a manifest collu- sion. My letter consisted of a protestation against the scandalous disor- 22 ders of the Institution in general, and a request that the Dr. Would re- tract the obnoxious offer of an unacceptable paternity as publicly as it was made, to include also a recantation of the words : *' Death you shall have /" uttered ...near the door that connects my room, with that of the Dr's. , in his own voice and in connection with a declamation of Patrick Henry's famous speech, "Give me liberty or &c. " This letter of mine was answered by spectral demonstrations (not unlike those of ghost-rap- pers, ) in the Chancellor's room (next to my private study) between 11 and 12 o'clock on the night after its delivery, and by the insolent be- havior of the University scullion, who on the following day after many other impertinences told me : " You must not speak so to the Chancellor, my son /" No other reply was made, and no further notice taken of my com- plaint.
