TO

MARTIN KELLOGG,

Professor of the Latin language and literature, and Acting President of the University of California, as a slight token of my appreciation for his ripe scholarship, high Christian character, and his many great qualities of mind and heart which endear him to a generation of California students, as well as a feeble tribute to a life devoted to classical learning, I, a former pupil, dedicate these pages.

JOHN GOSS.
