The Telltale of 1721
In the treasure room of the library of Harvard College is a reminder of one of Medford's early ministers.
It is a leather bound manuscript of some sixty pages (three and three-fourths by six inches) of his clear but curious handwriting and on its fly-leaf, E Turelli Liber.
It reminds one of the text the parson preached from on the Sunday after his marriage to the handsome brunette, Jane Colman, I am black but comely, O ye daughters of Jerusalem.
Over two-thirds of its pages are the first known college periodical called The Telltale, from September 9 to November 1, 1721.
We quote the writer's aspiration:
O that I could now ascend on high and pluck sweet Gabriel's wing and gather thence a quill to write your immortal praises on the Caerulian plains.
We had not time to delve into the various disputes of the collegians and theologues recorded, and fear that the editor had his troubles, as the closing writing reads:
