130 HISTORY OF THE DAUBENY LABORATORY 



REGISTER OF PERSONS, NOT BEING MEMBERS OF MAGDALEN 

 COLLEGE, WHO HAVE WORKED WITH MR. J. J. MANLEY l 

 IN THE DAUBENY LABORATORY SINCE 1893. 



A large proportion of those whose names occur in this list have 

 attended the evening courses of practical instruction. Ever since the 

 commencement of these courses under Mr. Manle/s superintendence 

 they have become increasingly popular, and a very valuable adjunct 

 to the ordinary classes. So much so, that but for this opportunity 

 many men, some of whom have been Elementary Schoolmasters, 

 would not have been able to read for the Honour Chemistry School. 



It is to be hoped that, for the benefit of this class of student, and 

 also in the interests of others, the University will find means to open 

 laboratories to those who wish to devote the evenings to practical 

 work.

1 Mr. Manley received the degree of Honorary M.A. on December 8, 

 1903, and the Public Orator, on presenting him to the Vice-Chancellor, 

 made the following speech : 



Insignissime Vice-Cancellarie, vosque egregii procuratores : 

 Praesento vobis spectatum et bene instructum vinim, Joannem Job 

 Manley, per annos XVI. officinae Daubeniensis apud Collegium S.M. 

 Magdalenae curatorem : qui singular! habilitate praeditus et scientiae 

 physicae rudimentis imbutus mox tirocinium posuit et ad investigationes 

 altiores suopte se ingenio contulit et scriptis exposuit. Quorum quidem 

 scriptorum neque titulos neque argumentum facile est coram vobis effingere : 

 sunt enim istae res non modo non versu sed ne pedestri quidem oratione 

 dicendae: quippe propter Latini sermonis egestatem neque acidi nitrici 

 vim et naturam et densitatem, neque exquisitas metiendi rationes verbis 

 possim exprimere. Constat autem has auctoris gravissimi lucubrationes 

 doctis Societatibus cum nostratium turn externarum gentium adeo se com- 

 mendavisse ut in linguam Teutonicam conversae multum habeant ponderis 

 et momenti. 



Duco ad vos eruditum et expertum virum, discipulis pariter et collegis 

 acceptum, de scientia chemica optime meritum, ut admittatur ad gradum 

 Magistri in facultate Artium, honoris causa.
