...Andrew Oliver, C. C. Smith; from 92, H. R. Wadleigh, Percy Dodge, R. B. Greenough. Rev. M. L. Kellner, of the Episcopal Theological School, Cambridge, then conducted the services, and made a short address on the duties of the Lenten Season, taking his text from the tenth verse of Psalm 46.

The demands made upon a man by modern life are, notwithstanding all its appliances and inventions, much more severe than at any time in the past. A man should, therefore, strengthen himself and try to do his duty. There is no excitement...
...good-sized audience attended the vesper service at Appleton Chapel yesterday afternoon. The congregation read responsively the 91st Psalm. Dr. Francis G. Peabody offered prayer. The Rev. Theodore C. Williams of New York, preached a short sermon, basing his remarks on the words which Jesus spoke first to the Pharisees and then to his disciples, telling them that it was because.

Our sins are many or few according to our knowledge of them, and therefore, together with our first higher...
