Rabisarani

Rabindranath participates in singing at the annual assembly of the Brahmo Samaj.

Sixth annual Hindu Mela takes place. Rabindranath recites extempore verses at the Mela – reports the National Paper.

Rabi (Rabindranath's childhood nickname) is admitted to the Bengal Academy. Rabi's nephew Satyaprasad and elder brother Somendranath join him.

Due to an outbreak of Dengu in Calcutta (now Kolkata), Rabindranath is sent to Chatubabu's (Lalababu) garden–house at Panihati, where he stays for a month and a half. This is his first acquaintance with the countryside of Bengal.
