A Circular from the Preachers of the University.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY, Cambridge Mass., July 1887.

DEAR SIR: The Plummer Professor of Christian Morals and Preachers to the University for the year 1886-87 wishes to lay before the parents and friends of the students of the University some report of their undertaking during the past year.

We look back on the year with serious gratitude. The services of worship have been attended beyond our expectations, and we believe that a distinct movement of healthy religious life has been perceptible in the University. Each of us has conducted morning prayers for about seven weeks, and each has preached on four Sunday evenings. The remaining services on Sunday have been led by the following preachers through our invitation:-

The Rev. President Robinson of Brown University.

Rev. Andrew P. Peabody, D. D., of Cambridge.
