Excerpt from The Delta Upsilon, Vol. 4: Quarterly

Plainly we would have to try new tactics, and therefore about a week before the cremation was to happen a dozen good men and true gathered at my room, and we conspired. During the next week, as a result Of our meeting, two of the twelve borrowed ten or fifteen hop-poles from a neighboring hop yard; four or five others borrowed the heaviest ladder that could be found in the village - all which were sequestered till the evening of the burning. As I am relating the whole truth in this story, I must say that we forgot to return the hop-poles, but we were more conscientious with the ladder, for the owner afterward came up with a wagon, and we let him take it away. An old carpet was bought from the janitor, and a blacksmith in a town a few miles distant made us two strong hooks with handles about three feet long. The use of these divers articles will soon appear.
