Mcgill university. Montreal the mcgill university is the most important of the educational establishments of montreal, and perhaps of all canada. It owes its foundation to the hon. James mcgill, who was born in glasgow in 1744 and died in 1813. The original charter of the university dates from 1821. The morrin college. Quebec; the st. Francis college, richmond; the congregational college of british north america, and other important institutions, arc affiliated to the university. The fame of its professors is now world-wide. We here see the college buildings in their winter dress; but the bright, keen air of the canadian winter is as healthy, and in many respects as enjoyable, as the warmth and brilliancy of the canadian summer and the mellow beauty of the canadian autumn. Date: between 1897 and 1899.
