Talk:William Stewart Halsted
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
i believe two of their dachshunds were, in fact, named "Nip" and "Tuck." What led you to believe that this was false? Was told this by someone who had visited their home, now the High Hampton Inn. Have written the Inn to verify.

[edit] Dachshunds
According to MacCallum's biography of Halsted, they had several dachshunds. Sisly and Nip were mentioned in one of Halsted's letters as dying in 1915, within a few months of each other. Maristoddard 18:01, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yale-Eton football?
yale played eton? are we talking about eton school? as in 'england's battles are won on the playing fields of eton'? what game did they play? i would have thought that eton would have played rugby union.also, yale's a university, eton is a secondary school. then there's the small matter of the ocean in between them. one thing and another, i'd like to see a citation for this.Toyokuni3 (talk) 20:56, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
