His delightful humor, his insight and sympathy with the student point of view, his un- tqualed grasp of legal principles and his long experience in their applica- tion, made up a personality of un- usual charm. It is our privilege to keep alive his memory in a way that would have been most dear to him Shortly before his déath the George- town Law School paid Justice Gould the ‘highest honor within its power to bestow, when it conferred upon him the honorary degree of doctor of lsws. From replies that are coming into the law school and from the in- terest that is being manifested by the student body, many of the senlors having recelved instructions under Justice Gould, the appeal has struck a responsive chord. Announcement was made at the headquarters of the Endowment As- sociution that Rev. W. Coleman Nev- ils, 8.
