Draper drowned at sea on the day of the school's official opening, dated 11 January 1866 in the supplied passage.
The school was established in 1866. The official opening date of 11 January 1866 is derived from the passage recording that Draper drowned at sea on the day of the school's official opening. In the same year, the college adopted purple and gold colours, and the motto Sapere Aude appeared in the first College Prospectus of 1866, a document date distinct from the establishment occurrence.
