Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Addresses Delivered at the Public Exercises in Connection With the 59th Annual Convention of the Alpha Delta Phi Fraternity, 1891
It may surprise, it may disappoint you, when I say that the President of the Johns Hopkins Uni versity, whose presence has been promised you, can not be here this evening, - I mean officially. He regards himself as the friend and protector of all honorable fraternities in the Johns Hopkins Uni versity, even though the entire Greek alphabet to gether with iota subscript should be needed for their titles. So he cannot appear to-night officially, as the Admiral of the Pinafore used to say, -lest he should seem to bestow on one association exclusively the good will that he feels toward all. But he has delegated to represent him a former student of' Yale, with whom he has been intimately ac quainted, whose hair has prematurely turned gray.
