In Remembrance of
The Benefactors
who laid the foundations of
Queens University
in 1839-40-4

See the Records in University Doomsday Book

Of course I quite understand
that there will be no precedent for the
reference. But cannot we make one,
is it not desirable that we should ^{do so,} part
of our policy is to show to the world that
our Benefactors on whom we still depend
are not forgotten. Their names are embellished
in Doomsday Book and we are not
ashamed of the fact. If you think it better to
have the words in Latin, be it so - but as they are
designed for a purpose why should they or something
to mean the same they be omitted - please return
the enclosed with any further recommendations.

Yrs faithfully
Sandford Fleming
