Should your steps be turned in the
direction of that scholastic Paradise,
that haunt of Apollo and the Muses
that new Olympics, the Western
University, you could not long
remain under its roof without
hearing the name of her, who is
the subject of this panygerie,
the splendid original of this
inadequate portrait, Miss
Jessie Rowat, Boss of No. 6 -

Nature, like the spiteful old
hag that she is, ofen denies majesty
of form and perfection of
feature to those whom she has
dowered with breadth of intellect
and brilliancy of fancy.
