1 In 1903, McMaster University had not yet moved to Hamilton, Ontario; this occurred in 1931, partly through the McQuestens' efforts, see W7085n, W7010, W7095n Box 08-138a.


2 F.W. Anderson wrote a letter to Calvin in Montreal (W7395, Feb. 7, 1903) in which he described this debate. This notice was likely enclosed in that letter and became separated later.

It is not known if Calvin attended this debate.
