"Harvard Reminiscences" is the forthcoming book by the Rev. Dr. A. P. Peabody, Preacher to the University, and one of the best-beloved and venerated men in America. For a quarter of a century he has been a higher officer in the college, and it is two-thirds of a century since he first became connected with Harvard-first as a student and then as tutor. The book includes bright little monographs on scores of the college officers of the last half century or more, such men as Felton, Palfrey, Kirkland, Clarke, Hedge and Norton, besides many less well known. It is rich in characterization and anecdote and reminiscence, and will be treasured by all Harvard men, students or graduates. The frontispiece is a portrait of the gentle scholar, Dr. Peabody. The book will be brought out by Ticknor and Co. this month.- Boston Gazette.
