The Story of the PEREGRINUS- The Patron Saint of the Law School It was born in the classroom in 1899 or 1900 when a law student was asked to identify the word Peregrinus , the name of an ancient Roman official. The student guessed, Wal, I don't know judge, 'less it could be some kind of animal. The 'animal' was sketched on the blackboard the next morning. It had: The tail of a fox-to represent the wise and skillful lawful lawyer or the shrewd ■ i. and crafty one The fiery mouth-to fight injustice and represent the wide latitude of a bill of equity The Irish ditcher's boot on one front foot-to indicate the law's protection of the least of mankind The naked claw on the other foot-to indicate that the greatest of mankind must fear its power The hindquarters of a dog-man's most faithful friend Spotted patches-to indicate that even the most beautiful days will have a few clouds The arched back ready to spring-to indicate that the law is ever ready to protect right or to prevent wrong The head of a stork with vicious fangs-to indicate the power to penetrate the mysteries of the law which the true student must obtain by study. The Peregrinus is omnipotent-in every classroom, on Law Day, at Moot Court arguments, in the Law Review, Law Forum, or Peregrinus. He takes the Bar with each candidate and is sworn in at the Texas Association ceremonies. He is the symbol of integrity, efficiency, and spirit of a job well done that makes the University of Texas School of Law proud of its reputation, and the students proud of their school. mtiiWI n 20
