Introduction

THE annual meeting of the Alumni Association of Williams College held at Williamstown during the Commencement week of 1922, was devoted to the consideration of John Bascom's life and work. I was one of the speakers, and at the request of the association I have attempted to reproduce the substance of my remarks. The following pages are the result, though this presentation is necessarily somewhat expanded. The time limit of twenty-five minutes did not permit of the outline necessary to make a written presentation understandable. I have kept down the pages as much as possible, because of the lesson I have learned that the engrossed public like the court is more sympathetic towards short than towards extended written argument.
