judgement and his loyal affection to the University, his
zeal in her service, and his practical good sense had
won for him the love and esteem of all with whom
he came in contact. During the whole course
of his canvass for funds for the University he made
for her many friends and not one enemy.
During this session the Hugh Waddle Lectureship in
Theology was held by the Rev. Dr. James Lindsay of
Kilmarnock, Scotland.

A most interesting feature of
the closing ceremonies of this session was the celebration
of the fiftieth anniversary of the ordination
and ministerial work of the Rev. Dr. J.B. Mowat,
professor of Hebrew in the Faculty of Theology.

The celebration was held in one of the classrooms
and was largely attended by the clergy and friends
present in Kingston for Convocation.

Many of these gave appropriate
testimony to the esteem and affection with
which Dr. Mowat was regarded, and the value of
his pastoral and professional work.

The following benefactions were received during
the winter or 1899-1900.

$2,712.97 from the executors of the late
Michael Doran, Kingston, making $19,212.97
