“ The Gamma of New York being in a city college, the members could not meet as they wished, and the charter was withdrawn at the wish of its graduates. The Vermont Chapter has always been large and prosperous. The New Jersey Chapter was killed by the anti-fraternity laws passed by the faculty. The chapter at Michigan University is prosperous. For a long while it was the only chapter not possessing a house of its own. It is now building one at a cost of $8000. The members of the fraternity are closely united, and their small number makes them well acquainted ”
