Excerpt from The Canada Educational Monthly, Vol. 22: January to December, 1899 The event to which allusion has just been made suggests the re¿ection that, unique in this respect among Cana dian Universities, mcgill owes Loth ing to the State, but everything to the enlightened liberality of private citi zens. As one stands on, the time worn steps of the old Arts Building, bearing the name of the first bene factor, the eye falls successively on buildings associated with the names of the merchant princes of Montreal the Molsons, Redpath, Workman, Mc Donald, and the present noble Chan cellor, Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal. And, as in the old Arts Build ing and its somewhat irregular exten sions and additions we read the record of the University's past struggles, _so in the group of stately structures which have sprung up around it, and in their unrivalled equipment, we see the testi mony of its achieved prosperity and success and mark the prophecy of a brilliant future.
