Robert J. McBryde, the President, Mr. Frank P. Parish, Va. , in a neat speech introduced the Orator, Mr. Eugene Williams, Ala. , who emphasized the fact that the orator selected by the Committee of the Faculty had resigned several days before, and that he under solicitations but disadvantages had consented to take his place. He soon announced his theme, " England's Conquered Neighbor, Poor Downtrodden Ireland, " laid special stress upon the lack of interest we feel towards Ireland, gave a vivid... account of her conquest and the harsh laws by which she is governed, eulogized her orators, statesmen, poets, war- riors and patriots, and predicted the coming of her disinthral- ment at no distant day. While this oration was brief it was well-written, well-delivered and frequently elicited ripples of UNIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA 361 applause. After this the President conferred the debater's medal upon Mr. J. F. Ellison, Va. , who received and acknowl- edged the same in a short but highly creditable speech.
