Arrangements have been made for an authors' reading, to be given in Sanders Theatre, Longfellow's birthday evening, February 27th, the proceeds of which will be added to the fund. The movement is wholly independent of the Memorial Association, but has, of course, its warmest wishes for success. It is expected that the following authors will take part. Oliver Wendell Holmes, Christopher Pearse Cranch, Edward Everett Hale, Julia Ward Howe, Thomas Wentworth Higginson, William Winter, John Boyle O'Reilly, Arlo Bates, George Parsons Lathrop and Louise Chandler Moulton. Tickets will be for sale in Cambridge and Boston, Feb. 9th and 10th.
