The Judiciary of Kansas. Connected with
this was story of prison chaplain
preaching sermon from the text, 1T go to
prepare place for you" s5zfs i
I am very glad to come back to old Yale
and meet here the honored president, who
was one of our loved instructors.
I remember he said once to our division
that he felt sure there were not five mem
trance examination five years after gradua-
ton. When he said it, he looked curious
y at me, and have wondered ever since
It he meant me as one of the five. He
concluded with glowing tribute to Presi-
dent Dwight.
The next speaker is Brown, said the
president.
We all Of US reverence and love the not
yet venerable president. The class of '56
has some pleasing recollections of him as
tutor. Unfortunately he is not versed in
law, for had he been he would not have
called upon two judges of the supreme
that the opinion of that court is always
given by one Judge. That opinion is al
ways enough for most people. I, too,
don't feel much like talking to-day. I
have also that strangely peculiar feeling of
loyalty to '56 first and old Yale last.
Brewer and I were out last night and
didn't get to bed until after breakfast time
this morning. 1t is good thing for us to
get back to Yale once in a while. Ever
will cherish that degree of doctor of laws
which was bestowed upon me by my alma
mater.
Here "Prexy" answered the remark of
Judge Brewer about that look, his version
of it being that he saw in him a kindred
soul. He then announced that James D.
Wickham of the class of 1916, the Oldest
living graduate had recently died. The
oldest graduate now is Edward McCready
of Charleston, S. c., of the class of 1920,
of which class the late ex-President Wool
sey was member.
He announced the balloting for members
of the corporation as follows: For the six
years term, Edward Mason of Chicago,
/ ,343 votes; William NJ Evarts, 982. Mr..
Mason's election was received with great
cheering. For the four years term: Blu
chanan Winthrop, 1854; Robert N. Will
son, 1914; Morris B. Beardsley, al.
The DeForrest gold medal was awarded
to Howard Thayer Kingsbury of the SEN
ior class.
The president announced officially that
Pierce III. WEIGH had presented the uni
versity with the new dormitory in mem
ory of his father, the late Harmanus M.
WEIGH He further announced that the
donor few years ago of $25, 900 for the
Law school was Junius S. Morgan of Lon
don, England, and that his son, J. Pierre
pont Morgan of New York, had given
$4,000. The chair will continue to be
known as the Edward J. Phelps chair of
law. He said that a certain gentleman
had promised $40, 900 for new law school
building if the movement is pushed for
ward
The Medical school also is to have new
