We have already given, our support to the proposal of the rebuilding of the College and with large numbers of people in these West Indies colonies shall welcome the day when the new building will be opened for its important duties of supplying the West Indies, as in the past, with not only Bishops, Archdeacons, and the bulk of the Clergy, but Chief Justices Barristers, Physicians, High School teachers, planters, merchants, and men of leading position in every colony in the Caribbean Sea. The College has a splendid record and must continue to play an important part in the educational development of the West Indies.
