Modest, devoid of self-seeking and therefore honoured by all who met him, if all Peterites were like him we should be the greatest school in the land. But St. Peter's did educate him, he loved it and gave himself to its service all the rest of his life. He was Secretary for many years to the Old Peterite Club, for 20 years a Governor, and the first Vice-Chairman of the Governors ever. So I can tell you from knowledge how much the School has owed to his wisdom and energies behind the scenes and how generous he was of his time and toil towards its life and well-being. Rightly, therefore, we commemorate him with our thanks and love by this new building; and rejoice to pay this last and lasting honour to his name. In token of which, I now ask Layfield, the Head of the School, to deliver me the key, that I may formally name and open SCOTT BUILDING.
