friends, Mr. Hallen was presented with a valuable Micro- 
scope, bearing the following incription : 
PRESENTED TO 
JAMES HERBERT BROCKENCOTE HALLEN, Esq., 
VETERINARY SURGEON, 1ST BOMBAY BIGHT CAVABRY (BANCERS) ; 
FEBBOW OP THE ROYAB PHYSICAB SOCIETY, EDINBURGH; 
AND VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE EDINBURGH VETERINARY MEDICAB ASSOCIATION; 
BY 
THE STUDENTS OE THE EDINBURGH VETERINARY COLLEGE, 
AS A TOKEN OF ESTEEM, AND IN GRATEFUL ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF 
THE GENERAL INTEREST HE HAS TAKEN IN THE ADVANCEMENT 
OF THEIR STUDIES. 
Edinburgh, 3rd April, 1857. 
Mr. Strangeways was selected by the students to present 
the testimonial, which he did in a very appropriate address, 
to which Mr. Hallen made a most impressive and judicious 
reply. The value of the testimonial is indescribably en- 
hanced, that it did not emanate from extraneous influences, 
but was spontaneously and unanimously bestowed by the 
whole class, amounting to upwards of a hundred; and such a 
gift becomes the more graceful and gratifying, from being con- 
ferred upon an old alumnus of the same college, to w hich 
the students themselves belong, the one from which Mr. 
Hallen holds his diploma. The token is not less creditable 
to the donors than to its recipient; to the former as expressing 
their feeling of acknowledgment for the gratuitous and warm 
interest Mr. Hallen has taken in the promotion of their 
studies, and to the latter as testifying how highly his services 
in advancing veterinary science are publicly appreciated.
