The first page opened with an untitled selection, opening with the line, “A Man of kindness to his beast is kind,” followed by “A Day In London,” dated July 12, 1888, signed by “A Carlisler,” who is later revealed to be Miss Lowe, and continued on to the fourth page. The report included a visit to St. Paul’s Cathedral, Westminster Abbey, Trafalgar Square, Madame Toussard’s Wax Museum and took up both columns of the first and final pages of the issue.
Page two featured news from Outing students, Capt Pratt’s visit to Standing Rock Sioux Agency on government business, a report of “Camp Items,” by “Watch Dog,” and more news items. The third page was filled with summer news of teacher vacations, new building progress, and student outing news. The fourth page concluded the historical tour of London.
