President Eliot said that it seems to him there is only one ground for religious union. Through all religious matters there will be found a commonness of conception of human character.

...call attention to the service at Appleton Chapel tomorrow evening. Dr. Momerie of London will preach. He is a distinguished preacher and scholer whose books on theological matters have had a great influence in recent years. Dr. Momerie has been a professor at Kinds College, and chaplain at the London Foundling Hospital. He comes to us directly from Cornell, where he has been speaking to the students. Here is an excellent opportunity to hear this distinguished English clergyman, and the chapel should be filled on the occasion of his visit...

Dr. Huntington of New York will preach the sermon. The St. Paul's Society has met with great success in its course thus far. The clergymen have been men of wide repute and have never failed to interest their hearers. We wish to call particular notice to the service tomorrow. Dr. Huntington is too well known to need any introduction other than the mere announcement of his being here. There...
