BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
"MOST NOBLE VICE-CHANCELLOR, AND YOU, EMINENT PROCTORS:
"A citizen of Britain is before you, once a student in this
University, now better known to the people of the New World than to
our own. This is the man who fifteen years ago went to the coast of
Labrador, to succor with medical aid the solitary fishermen of the
northern sea; in executing which service he despised the perils of the
ocean, which are there most terrible, in order to bring comfort and
light to the wretched and sorrowing.
