At the last meeting of the Corporation, Professor G. L. Kittredge was appointed Walter Channing Cabot Fellow for three years from September 1, 1908. After his graduation from Harvard, Professor Kittredge taught Latin for several years at Exeter. In 1888 he returned to Harvard as an instructor in the English department and in 1894 was appointed a Professor in that department.
This fellowship is supported by a fund of $50,000 given to the University in 1905 by Elizabeth Rogers Cabot, Henry Bromfield Cabot, Ruth Cabot Paine, Elise Cabot Forbes, Walter Mason Cabot, and Mabel Cabot Sedgwick. It was the desire of the givers to provide "an additional remuneration to some distinguished man in recognition of his eminence."
