Digital version in the Ascheman Sesquicentennial collection, O:\Archives\SJUArchives\Images\Ascheman Coll.- historical photos\LP063.1891.Skate.Sag [Alexius Hoffmann has this in his book on St. John's first fifty years, in the section on the 1881-1882 academic year: "Skating was exceptionally fine this winter: several hundred acres of skating rink is a privilege not accorded to the students of every year..." It's unclear whether the ice stayed so nice all winter, i.e. whether it was 1881, 1892, or both. plr 3/5/2014]
