With addresses by Mr. E. P. Cox, General Wheeler, Gov. J. Hoge Tyler, Judge D. A. Dearmond, and Hon. W. A. Jones. Richmond, Virginia, had a visit from the virile veteran, General Joseph Wheeler, in January, 1899.

Nicolay and Hay's Abraham Lincoln says (Vol. IX, page 389), about Chase: Even to comparative strangers, he could not write without speaking slightingly of the President. He kept up this habit to the end of Lincoln's life. Volume VI, page 264, says: * *But his attitude towards the President, it is hardly too much to say, was one which varied between the limits of active hostility and benevolent contempt. Yet non

our young people. Brother Woodbridge continued with us until December, 1893, when he resigned, and became Professor of Applied Christianity in the Divinity School, Tufts College. Soon after the resignation of Rev. W. S. Woodbridge, an engagement was made with the Rev. W. H. Dearborn, who for many years was pastor of the Universalist society in Hartford, Conn. We were much favored with the ability of this pastor, who remained with us until October, 1898. At a parish meeting held in January, 1899, it was voted unanimously to extend a call to the Rev. Clarence L. Eaton, who graduated the previous year from Tufts Divinity School. He immediately commenced his services as pastor, and remains so at this date. On the 16th day of March he was ordained and installed with appropriate ceremonies by the following clergymen: Invocation, by Charles H. Leonard, D. D.; responsive reading, by Rev. Edson Reissnider and the people; reading of the Scriptures, by Rev. R. Perry Bush; sermon, by
