I learn from a Keswick paper that Mr. A. Colin

Corah of that town has had conferred on him the Degree Ph.D. (Hons.) by the Acadimie Internationale, "affiliated with universities and Learned Institutions throughout the world." I do not congratulate Mr. A. Colin Corah. One of the quixotic bestowers of this spurious distinction is Geo. H. Gronn, Mus. Doc., Ph.D. He is a new one on me. The other bestower is Henry Chellew, M.A., LL.D. He is anything but new.
