The board feel that the 'present is a'most opportune tinie for the schools to sink their differences and to hold out tlie hand of friendship to each other, many Old Boys of l:-olh schoois having laid down their live? side by side for King and Empire in the vieat struggle which at present convulses the civilised world; and that the matter bo referred tc a committee of the whole board, and the rector asked to meet the committee to confer on the subject.”—This resolution was carried.
