The Oriental Seminary Annual Report 1945
1945
Issur Chandra Gupta, Poet and the Editor of the Problzakar in the issue of the paper of the 14th February 1853 observed "since the founda- tion of the Oriental Seminary by an Indian gentleman of no ordinary ability it is sending forth every year young men well educated and fit to enter the world. [...] 7. In the beginning of the Fifties of the last century, the then news-papers announced that the boys of the different Schools and Colleges had attempted to display their histrionic accomplishments : they performed several of Shakespeare's plays in place of recitation and in this they drew admiration of the cultured public—both Indian and European. [...] On the death of the founder, the entire management of the Seminary devolved upon his brother, the late Babu Hurray Kristo Auddy, who devoted all his time in the interest of the institution, which continued to maintain its proud position as one of the most respect- able and independent schools in Bengal It was established for the Hindus of all denominations. [...] After serving the Seminary for over 43 years as a member of the Society and as the Honorary Secretary he died in harness on the 1st of September, 1937 with a longing for the wel- fare of the Seminary. [...] Pandit Jogendra Nath Tarkatirtha presided over the Hari Sabha held in the School Hall in the evening and explained to the boys all about the Birth and the Lilas of Sreekrishna and the lecture was much appreciated.
