Freer recommended their being sent to the United States as 
government students, and now they are instructors in the Col- 
lege of Medicine and Surgery. 
This true friendship on Doctor Freer’s part toward the Fili- 
pinos also manifested itself in the College of Medicine and 
Surgery, of which he was the Dean. It was a real source of 
pleasure for him to work with so many Filipino members of the 
faculty. 
In rendering my humble tribute to the memory of that great 
friend of the Filipinos, allow me to suggest that we, his fellow- 
workers and admirers, especially his Filipino friends, place a 
votive tablet on one of the walls of this building, as a sincere 
token of our enduring appreciation of his disinterested service 
and as an outward expression of our unswerving admiration of 
his ideals as a man and a scholar.
