VETERINARY LEGISLATION. 
getlier with a number of the graduating class. A number of 
guests had been invited, including the Faculty of the college, the 
President and Secretary of the Board of Trustees, together with 
a few of the veterinary practitiouers in the vicinity. Nearly 
forty sat down to dinner, which was highly enjoyed by all pres¬ 
ent. The first toast of the evening was to the college and Board 
of Trustees, to which Mr. Marsh, President of the Board, re¬ 
sponded, while Dr. Pomeroy responded to that given to the Fac¬ 
ulty, and Dr. C. B. Michener replied on behalf of the Alumni 
Association. Dr. Liautard responded in behalf of the veterinary 
profession. Toasts were given to the various classes, each of 
which was represented. Others were called on for remarks, 
among which were Dr. Robertson, Dr. L. McLean, of Brooklyn, 
Dr. Michener, Sen., of Pennsylvania, and Dr. Charum, of New 
York. Judging from the spirit that prevailed throughout the 
evening, it was most highly enjoyed by all present. These meet¬ 
ings come but once a year, and it is to be hoped that all will, in 
the future, avail themselves of the opportunity to mingle for a 
few hours with the companions of their college days; for it can¬ 
not be other than a mutual benefit and pleasure.
