In October 1854 the Classes met for the first time
in the building purchased from Archdeacon Stuart.
The Boarding House was discontinued and steps were
taken to terminate as speedily as possible the tenancy
of all the houses hitherto rented for College purposes.
The Preparatory School, however, having been found
in the absence of any efficient City High School, a
necessary and useful appendage was maintained
in its successful operation, and the lot on which
it had been built by the Trustees was purchased
from Major Sadlier for [Pound symbol?] 125.
On the first Monday of Novr, the School of
Medicine, in connection with the College, already refer-
red to was opened with an introductory Lecture by
Dr. Sampson, in a building on Princess Street, then
partly occupied by the Mechanic's Institute, and now
forming the Furniture Warehouse of Mr. Drennan.
The Lecturers during this first Session were Drs. Sampson, Pre-
sident, Stewart, Dickinson, Gates, Hayward and
Litchfield, and at their request Professor Williamson | page_0057Donald Macdonald in Arts and Theology
