Oglethorpe and was there in training when the com-| mencement took place. We regret the error and make this /%nrrAr-tinn <?r> that the record mav be Kept straight. We went up to the 'closing exercises but were just a lit-1 tie late and there was no room so we I ieft and had to depend on other In-, formation for the facts and must have i misunderstood some one as to the \ second honor* man. We take pleasure j in making the correction. And by i the way tie is our namesaKe. too. ana j we know he will make good as a sol- i dier as he did as a student.
