Acadia Athenaeum:

The Academy had the better of the territory throughout the first half, but failed to score, the half ending in a draw. The second half the Freshman were much more aggressive, and in a short time McCurdy made their first score, taking advantage of a fumbled ball, but the try was not converted. Shortly after this Welton scored, and then McCurdy scored again, both tries being converted. The game ended with the score 13 – 0 in favor of the Freshmen. The contest was marked by sharp tackling and good half work for both sides, the Freshmen halves being faster.
Dr. DeWolfe refereed in his usual satisfactory manner.
