192 Events OF HIS LIFE. esteem and affection it is the simplicity and purity of your private charactor, the charm and beauty of your private life, which is an example to your countrymen. A moderation which conciliated opponents, a swect reasonableness which disarmed opposition, combined with an unflinching and unwavering adherence to the principles which you held to be true and correct, have ever marked your high and useful career. As a Judge of the High Court you won the esteem of the nation; as Vice-Chancellor of the Calcutta University you helped the education of younger generations; and I have still more pleasant recollections of the kindly and sympathctic help which you descending from your high position rendered to us in cncouraging and helping the formation of a healthy Bengali Literature. The example of your life-work will live among our countrymen as a valuable asset and as an inspiring mcmory. Pardon me for writing all this; it is not often that I have time to indulge in sentiment in the midst of my laborious work. But your name in the papers yesterday called back to my mind memories of nearly forty years and if I have written down hurriedly what I felt, you will no doubt overlook the indiscretion of one who was your old student and is now your humble fellow worker.
