Hoady writes to Bayley in the hope that he has some pleasant reminiscences connected with the society of which Bayley was one of the founders. Hoadly begs that Bayley favor them with an account of the formation and early history of the I.K.A. In 1839, most of the old records and documents were scattered. They are much in the dark about their origins. All they have is a letter by Bayley written to the K.A. of Union College. Hoadly would like to know if Dr. John Williams was ever a member. They can count 94 who have been members. They will always be happy to see Bayley at their Lodge rooms in Hartford. The society is now in a most flourishing condition, and has regular meetings with literary exercises every Saturday evening. They enjoy by no means a bad reputation in College. :: II-2-n A.L.S. 3pp. 8vo.
