A Fountain to Replace the Pump.

The Class of 1869, instead of building a section of the Yard fence, has arranged to erect a successor to the old pump, for which a site has been granted by the Corporation. The design is being made by Mr. Walter Cook '69, of New York. Although the precise plan has not yet been determined upon, it will probably consist of a central fountain and basin with stone seats on either side; the whole in consistency with the general design of the old buildings nearby.

The committee appointed to carry out the plan consists of Dr. F. G. Peabody, J. B. Warner, and A. H. Howe, of Cambridge; T. P. Beale and J. S. Bigelow, of Boston; A. G. Fox of New York; and G. G. Willard of Chicago.
