family. All of us know the work that
has been accomplished here. A few
of us know Of some of the obstacles.
I shall never forget the night when
the faculty was summoned to the bed
side of the president to say, as they
supposed, the last farewell. But he
has overcome all obstacles, even that
greatest of obstacles perhaps, ill
health.
1T therefore gives US special joy
on this occasion to meet as family

done a great life work here and who
is still in the full prime of his man.

From a few students in the old pop

nest student body. But he has done
much more than this. He has builded
far greater and more lasting monu.
