'The Boxer Beginning,' typed story of the first time Pacific University's Boxer statue was stolen in 1899. The story was written down by the son or daughter of Harriet Scholfield, who graduated from Pacific University in 1902. It was the Class of 1902 that first stole the statue and began the campus traditions surrounding Boxer. The letter also recounts two other incidents from 1933 and 1954. Originally, the letter was accompanied by a photograph, but the two were separated some time ago. The photograph was likely similar to the banquet image cataloged as PUA_MS95_503.
This item is part of a collection of archival material related to Boxer, the mascot of Pacific University.
