true-hearted and natural and simple, that
he never ceased to believe wholly ana Z
heartily in the University which gave nm
nurture, in the uneQualled greatness OF the
men to whom his buyhoOd looked up, ana
in the supreme excellence of the old
fashioned collegiate training. Ahq
this building is his expression OF
his estimate of learning. of his convic-
ton that nothing within the compass OF
art is too fine or too costly to set forth the
praises of good literature, and good phil
osophy and good teaching. Happy the IN
stitution which can inspire these hlgh
sentiments in its sons; thrice happy the
devoted son to whom If is granted to eN-
press for himself and for all, the reverence
and affection felt 10y all for such an insti-
tuition
AS to what Mr.. Billings has so kindly
said of me personally, while 1t would be
vanity Ill me to accept it all, to have de
served any part of it from him is one of
the satisfaction of my life. On one point,

as he will, Tor giving it this place OF
honor, shall appeal to you AL for my
justification. and | shall tell him, may |
not, that his portrait was placed where II |
