s fications from personal knowledge
/ but from intimate friends who d
e know thereof therefore hearsa
: is the very questionable authorit
t from which our ever positive frien,
t draws his conclusions, and upon jus
| such information does Tim, (fo
,short), state unhesitatingly that con
t fourth the qualification of Mr.. Ogles
by is superior to Dr. Dawne. NJ
Now, Tim, I happen to know some
thing of DR.. Dawne and his qualifica
tions as teacher, especially in thC
Medical Department of Willamette
University.
| was a student of that University
last winter and listened with pleasure
and profit to course Of lectures de-
livered by DR.. Dawne; so, Mr.. Tim,
! speak not from hearsay, but person
al knowledge and observation when
say, among SO many esteemed PROBES.
sors there was scarcely one more
highly appreciated than DR.. Dawne.
To my knowledge his mode of teach
ing was unexceptionable to the class
and more than once have I heard
the remark by different members that
it would be more to our advantage
could we have had more lectures from
DR.. Dawne and less from some other
chairs, (not speaking disparagingly
of any, This I am positive of as
one of the class, and whatever truth
there may be in the balance OF Tins
charges, I am able to state, from my
personal and intimate acquaintance
with DIR. Dawne as one OF his stud
ents, that this charge Is false, and Gle
who made it is either ignorant of the
facts in the case, or has wiIlfully lied,
and has our permission to hang him
self upon which ever horn of the di. |
lemma suits him best. Tim charges
that these lectures were borrowed las
he is assured) As to the facts Of
this, many quotations were made by
him from DR.. Hammond, work recog-
niSed by the faculty as a standard au.
thority upon DIR. Dawne's Chair, and
work used as text book by the
school. In making such quotations,
ne was not an exception to the bal-
lnce of the faculty, who gave author
ty for their own statements, to prac-
ice, which, beyond a doubt, would
rot be beneath tho aping Of even Mr..
)glesby if hc is or ever has been
with the art of teaching.
Again, Mr. Tim acknowledges the
'culty proposed to promote DR. {
)awne to a more important Chair in '
be Dempartmentl Was not that +
vidence Of itself on part of the fac c
lty sufficient as to the merit of DR.. /
'awne as a teacherY l have heard t
lore than one Of the faculty pay him t
10 compliment of being a competent C
I'd successful teacher, and they well 7
now the high estimation in which he
as held by the class, One would be I
d TO suppose from Tins statement z
to the interview between Drs. v
awno and Carpenter, in regard to o
+. Dawne's Diploma, that no exami. cI
Ition of DR.. Dawne's qualification as ii
physician had ever been made, and d
at the faculty had simply created
chair in their body, and invited him
accept it, which he did, without q
owing any thing more Of his COM ~
tency than his own statement. III "
IS be true, which l disbelieve, it "
'tainly reflects severely upon the -
'ulty, clearly making them charge -

" essayed to teach, AS to the COP. on
sermons Of DR.. Dawne, l can say sis
this; I have frequently been in be
office when writing his sermons, re-,
! II copied, i surely must have in,
N from memory, where they were Bt
st accurately engratted by thor.

'ion Of DR.. Geary in regard to the tor
mon in question, it is not positive chi
