Basil Manly Diary IV (1848-1855) image 132, May 29, 1851 (bringing liquor to Archy)
"One day, last week, Dew was seen to receive liquor through the window of Archy’s room (Stafford’s servt) opening into the back lane. Without knowing the fact, by ocular evidence, I have no doubt that he constantly ministers to the vices of students in various ways – usually as to drink. This morning, a negro named Ed. employed in coloring the buildings was detected in bringing a gallon jug of liquor which he said was for Archy."
