 Description: Now that the Whirl-i-gig of Time has once more brought 'round to us the Month of May, and, with its closing days, the Centennial Celebration of the University, it has seemed not inappropriate that we should have an illustrated re-print of The Burning of the Rotunda; which, in the October, 1905, issue of the University of Virginia Magazine, described the event as "that fortunate catastrophe which, by reason of the renewed energy and vigor which it has instilled into our alumni and all lovers of higher education in this state, may with some justice be characterized as the second epoch in the history of the University,—the founding being reckoned as the first and the Installation of Dr. Alderman as the third."
