For Demosthenians

I'll make phone calls to some of you, but Brian, good soul that he is, called me to let me know that Professor Blount had passed away.

How many times did I say "Mister/Madame President, honorable Professor Blount, Officers, Demosthenians, and guests,” before I stood to speak?

He was a genial, good-natured, charming and intelligent man who will be missed.
