University Of Ottawa Review Vol 14

Excerpt from University of Ottawa Review, Vol. 14: 1911-1912 Very Reverend Rector, Reverend Gentlemen of the Faculty, Ladies and Gentlemen: feel as that man must have felt who, sitting in the lowest place, was called to come up higher. Proud and flattered as I am he must have been; and yet I am sure his step faltered as he walked upwards and speech to him was difficult when he tried to give ex pression to his gratitude for the kindly invitation. A man would have to have a fine conceit of himself who could without embarrassment join the distinguish ed circle of men who have received degrees from this university - men who in church and state, in divinity and law and medicine, in the great profession of teaching the arts and sciences that make for human advancement and human betterment, have shed such a lustre upon the University of Ottawa.
