In 1897 during renovations to Appleton Hall, some Delta Kappa Epsilon relics were found in the basement. The New York Evening Post ran a sensational front-page story about the find on July 24th: "Chamber of Horrors Found Under a Dormitory at Bowdoin College!" The article alleged that instruments of torture and human bones were among the finds. The Post eventually printed a retraction, but was this really a mistake or was something hushed up?
