Dean of the Faculty, ON THE OCCASION OF HANGING HIS PORTRAIT IN THE FACULTY ROOM. From The Gazette, June 18th, 19C0. An oil painting of Dr. Cralk, the Dean of the .Medical Faculty of McGll! University, now occupies a place of honor in the Faculty Room of the Medical Department of the; llniversitv. the members of , the Faculty and Teach- ing Staff having- decided to have Dr t-raiks portrait so pJaoftd durini? th? tt^,""^^, -Rf,^"'® aifetim-. The picture, which is life size, was painted by the well-known ailtlst, Mr. Jonger.s. The presentation of the portrait, ac- companied by an Address,— handsomely Illuminated by Mr. Edw'ard Cox,— was made at a Banquet to Dr. Craik, at St. James's Club on the evening- of the ilth instant. Professor Roddick MP was in the chair, and with only one or two unavoidable exceptions, every member of the Facoilty and Teaching staff was present. After the usual loyal toasts and patriotic songs, the PontraLt and the Address were presented on behalf of the Faculty by Professor Girdwood, the 'Senior Professor. Addresses were also made by the Chairman. Dr. Roddick, Dr. Shepherd, Dr. Ruttan end others. In presenting the Address, Professor Girdwood spoke as follows :— "It Is with feelings of keenest plea- aupe that I now rise to the perform- ance of a duty, which ,the kindness of my , Colleagues has Imposed upon me. K is now 81 years sln'oe. In 1869. the Governors of McGll' Universltv flno* ajisociated me with youS Tn t^ teaching of Chemistry^n tbfs F^cultv* During this long pe!Hod. I can reclu many occasions when it has been my the exercise of .those duties which de- volved upon us. Often have we spent hours together m social enJoyS These occasions of interchange^ of orTociTi'^'hSr l""'"^'^^'' Profe^on2 or social, have been among the hao^ Plest moments of my life; but rw^ have afforded me the intense plWTurl of the present moment, when called upon t« act as the mouthpiece oTm? Has so ably, so energetically and »o successfully pleaded their cauLTn the varous conditions, surroundings and audiences, in which and before whom y^u. Sir, have been called upon S McGm ^®«l^al Faculty of Old "I have to present this Address, on the occasion of your Portrait being- hung on the walls of the Faculty Room and I am glad that you have seen this honor, probably the best in our gift; but we hope that you wiU long be spared to us; and we are sel- fish enough to hope that you will long be spared to exercise those duties a« Dean of our Faculty, the honor and dignity of which position, you have In the past proved yourself so well fitted to maintain. The readiness and happiness of your speech on all occa- sions, your g:race of diction, and the force of your convincing arguments, but for wihlch in many a hard-fought battle we would have been worsted, have eminently proven your extreme fitness, and that you have been the right man in the right place. Your kindliness of manner and thoughtful- ness for others, have endeared you to patients, to the public at large, and to your friends; and, speaking for my- self, I am sure I do but express senti- ments from my colleagues, when I say that wo esteem ourselves fortunate, in being able to call you by so endeaj*- ing a title as friend. Professor Girdwood then read the Faculty's Address to Its Dearl, which was as follows : — "To Robert Craik, Esq., M.D., LL..D., Dean of the Faculty of Medicine, McGill University: " Dear Mr. Dean,— We, tfie Profes- sors, Lecturers and Demonstrators, on this, the occasion of the hanging of your portrait upon the walls of the Faculty Room, desire to give expres- sion to our most loyal regard and deep-seated affection for you; and to congratulate you upon having guided the destinies of our Faculty thivjugh that decade in which it has undergone a greater and more remarkable ex- pansion than In all the previous half century of its existence. " It has been our good fortune to have you for our Dean at a time Virhen not only the methods of teach- ing Medicine were undergoing a re- markable change for the better, but also when our public spirited and wealthy citizens were beginning to re- cognize the importance of our profes- sion, and the advantages to the com- munity of aiding us in training men to enter worthily upon its arduous duties and when ithe munificent gifts of Montreal citizens to our College and Hospitals had so equipped Montreal as to make it second to none in its facilities for teaching the profession you so ably represent. "We feel, sir, that it is largely to your unselfish devotion to the interests of our School, your strong personal- ity, and your natural and warming eloquence, we owe the sympathy and aid of our Benefactors. "As that of a brilliant Student of ft popular Professor, of an honored Dean of our Faculty, it is thrice fit- ting that your portrait should, dur- ing your lifetime, find a resting place within the walls, and we thank you for the opportunity you have given us to place it there."

Dr. Craik in replying, spoke as fol- lows: — My dear friends and fellow work- ers in the Faculty of Medicine: When you did me the honor some little time ago asking me to sit for my por- trait, that it might be placed in our Faculty Room among the portraits of the honored men who are no longer with us, but whose labors and talents have done so much to make our Fa- culty so well and favorably known in the Educational World it came as a surprise to me, and I need scarcely say also as a source of gratification; for I was quite unconscious of hav- ing merited so great a compliment or so high an honor. And now comes another surprise even greater than the first, in the beautiful Address which you have just presented to me, and in which my poor services to the Faculty are spoken of in such terms of praise as to put me utterly to the blush and to make me fain to suspect that your friend- ship for me and your good wishes have outrun your discrimination and caused you to see in me qualities which, if I am fortunate enough to possess them, it can only be in a much moie moderate degree than that for 3 which your partiality gives me cre- dit. But I must not allow my modesty to take the bloom from the compliment which you wish to pay me. I will- ingly, nay, gladly, accept it In the spirit in which It is offered. Happy Is the Chief who has the con- fidence and the good-will of his fol- lowers and fellow-workers and Avhere such harmony exists, prosperity is almost sure to follow. Gentlemen, I have been a happy rihlef and our Faculty has prospered. My share of the work, such as It has been, has been a labor of love, but the great burden of the work has fallen upon you, and right well and willing- ly have you done it; and, to you, therefore, belongs the lior a share of the credit. It is seldom becoming In anyone to epeiak much of himself, or of the part he has taken in any successful under- taking but your kindness has made It necessary that I should make some brief allusion to the part which I have tried to play in contributing to the suc- success of our Faculty. It was no light task to take up the burden which had fallen from the shoulders of such Deans as Holmes, Campbell and Howard; and it was with no little sinking of heart that I responded to the unanimous call of the Faculty to allow myself to be nominated as their successor. They had set so high a standard for the of- fice that had I atteanpted to follow or to imitate them in any slavish fash- ion, I should utterly have failed. But my then experience of a third of a century in official connection with the Faculty in the various capacities of Demonstrator, Curator, Professor, Registrar and Treasurer stood me in good stead; for it made me familiar with the working of the Faculty in all Its departments, with its weak points as well as its strong ones and I de- cided to attempt the task to the best of my ability, relying Implicitly upon the active help and cordial co-opera- tion of my Colleagues in the Faculty. Needless to say such help and co- operation were loyally given, and from that day to tbe present time the Fa- culty has continued to work practically as a unit. In the conduct of Its busi- ness, the free and full discussion of all subjects brought' before it has alv/ays been encouraged and suggestions from every quarter have been welcom- ed and accepted after careful scru- tiny, in so far as they have promised to be useful. Speaking as Dean of the Faculty, I lam breaking no confi- dence when I say that In our dlscua- slons we have never had any serious differences. We have had our little breezes and worries; but with the frank and open give and take of as- sured friendship they have never se- parated us, but have rather tended to bring us more closely together. I may also say that we have always striven to take a broad view of every question that has come before us dealing with it in such a way as to bring it into harmony with the at- titude which we have endeavored to assume and to maintain, that of ad- vanced and enlightened Progressive- ness. In endeavoring to maintain this attitude we have tried always to act carefully, but without timidity; promptly, but without undue haste; boldly and resolutely, but never reck- lessly; justly, buc never quixotically, I do not say that in these endeavors we have always been entirely successful we have no doubt sometimes blunder- ed but I think we may fairly claim that we have made no serious mis- takes, and we have not as yet been obliged to retrace our steps. Gentlemen, it is to this unity of pur- pose in our Faculty and to the earnest- nestness with which we have striven collectively towards the attainment of these high ideals, and not to the in- fluence of any single individual, that we are to look for the sources of that success of which we are all so proud; together we have labored to achieve it, and together we must accept the praise or the blame. For the first three or four years of our joint labors, comparatively little was done by out- siders to help us. We were on our trial and upon our iproved capacity to help ourselves, and to deal effectively with the known difficulties with which we had to contend, would depend our worthiness to be entrusted later with those munificent sums which have done so much to lift us out of all our difficulties. "Nothing succeeds like euccess"; prudent men do not pour treasure into a sinking ship and there can be little doubt that our courage in undertaking unaided the responsi- bility of establishing In 1892 the Chair of Pathology followed soon after by our firm stand In resisting narrow and unjust provincial legislation to- gether with the evidences of public ap- preciation as shown by our increasing classes, had much to do in determining that active sympathy on the part of our grreat Benefactors ; which bore fruit soon afterwards in their mag- nificent benefactions. Of the many reforms and improve- ments that have been brought about in the last eleven years, this is not the time nor the place to speak. It will be for those who come after us to apralse them at their fair value, and we must, therefore, leave theon to the Judgment of posterity. In speaking of the Faculty, I have been careful to do so impersonally. 1 could not well do otherwise without being invidious; but there is one gen- tleman to whom I owe such a debt of graitltude that I cannot resist this op- portunity of openly acknowledging it. I allude to my dear and valued friend, the Faculty's gifted Registrar, Profes- sor Ruttan. Words utterly fall me in trying to express what he has been to me. Early and late, on all kinds of occasions, I have had to rely upon his assistance, and he has never fail- ed me end his help has been given in such a way as to make the obligation sit lightly upon me. The Faculty om well as myself. Is to be congratulated on having in his responsible position, so talented and popular an Officer. And now. Gentlemen, what am I to say to you for your goodness ^o me in this matter? Life with Its trials, has also many prizes, and I have ha J my full share of them; some have min- istered to a laudable ambiitlon, in some I have taken a pardonable pride; but your kindness tonight outclasses them all. It has touched me to the very heart and can never be forgotten, ten. X
