If I may parody James Agate, who was talking about Sir Henry Irving, who in turn parodied Dr Johnson, who was talking about a gentleman of the name of Hume: ‘If anybody thinks Alexander Walk was the greatest member of our College of modern times and does not say so, he lies. If he does not think so, he is mad.’ I submit this judgment with little fear of contradiction; but should anyone choose to doubt me, let him only glance through Natalie Cobbing's detailed list of the high offices Walk has held, any one of which would cause us to sing praise unto his name.
