174 EVENTS OF HIS LIFE. uniform courtesy qualities by which you have always inspired confidence in the public mind and commanded the respect and admiration of all branches of the profession. Your successful and brilliant career as a Judge is a source of pride to the members of the profession to which you belonged, and will always be an illustrious example to that body. In common with the public, we realise in your retirement a heavy loss to the country. While discharging your arduous duties as a Judge, you have not been sparing in your labours for the advancement of the country in educational and other matters. As the first Indian Vice-Chancellor of the Calcutta University, you secured to the graduates of the University many valuable privileges and you have always worked for the welfare of our youths with singular wisdom and zeal. Your private life has throughout been a model to our countrymen while your public carcer in all its phases has been worthy of the highest praise. And now in taking leave of you, we fervently hope and pray that many years of health and strength may yet be vouchsafed to you to work with greater vigour in the various spheres of usefulness in which you have always moved.

Woodroffe) said:- Mr. Justice Banerjee, this afternoon learnt that the Vakeels' Association was about to present this Memorial and I and my fellows at the Bar received an invitation to be present. That invitation we most gladly, yet with feelings of the deepest regret, accepted.
