Mr. E. Charlton Black gave the second of his course of readings, from the works of contemporary Scotch authors, last evening in Brattle Hall.
Scotland has always been a home of literature, Mr. Black said, the names of Scott, Burns, and Carlyle being written on the pages of its history. The literature of Scotland has seldom been higher than it is at the present day.
Mr. Black then read some reminiscences of Edinburgh University by J. M. Barrie, and Robert Louis Stevenson; and extracts from "The Stickett Minister," and "Why David Oliphant Remained in the Faith of his Fathers," by S. L. Crockett," and "A Window in Thrums," by J. M. Barrie.
