very quiet and unassuming way, at the same time that she exercised complete control over the students. Whatever work was entrusted to her, she did it in the most satisfactory manner, leaving nothing to be desired.
"I had recently, on a vacancy occurring, recommended Miss Sorabji for a Professorship in this college, and I still wish that she may be allowed to continue her connection with this college, where she has already done such good work. By her brilliant University and College career, and by her excellent work as a teacher this year, Miss Sorabji has shown that she is pre-eminently fitted to supply in her person the great want felt in many towns and in the Native States, namely, a thoroughly able and qualified lady superintendent for girls' schools.
"Miss Cornelia Sorabji will carry with her the good wishes of all her colleagues in this college.
(Signed) " J. A. Dalal, M.A.,
Principal,
"Guzerat College, Ahmedabad."
