tered Newton Theological College, from

career as a minister of the gospel he has fill
ed many important charges For many
years he was District Secretary of the Bible
Society and was successful in raising large
sums of money for furthering the work OF

siderable in raising funds in their behalf.

.Elrst Parish church.

A series of five entertainments to be given
at the First Parish church was opened on
Saturday afternoon by DIR. Hill with his lee
ture containing personal "reminiscences OF
Agassz The Doctors acquaintance with
the great naturalist began in the autumn Of
1916, when he came out to Waltham and gave
four lectures upon Comparative Zoology and
one upon Embryology, to popular audience
At that time, and for several years subse
quently, Agassiz was fond of running ont to
Waltham and taking rambles over the hills
and through the woods, in company with DR..
Hill, then young clergyman in that pictur-
esque town. After that they frequently went
on excursions planned by Mr.. Samuel FELTON,,
up the line of the Cheshire, Sullivan and
Passumpsic roads, and finally to the White
Hill. DR.. Hill was himself one of that COM
pany, said to have been seriously understood
by stage driver to be "a set of naturals from
that Asylum in Someryille, near Boston,
making an excursion with their keeper the
keeper being Professor G. G. FELTON,.
After number of pleasant personal anec-
dotes, DR.. Hill passed to brief analysis of
Agassizs character, and a succinct state
ment of the difference between his gen.
eral views and those of Darwin. The lee
turer said that the views of both men had
frequently been misunderstood; and that
even in those charming volumes of the Life
and Letters of Darwin, recently published,
there were some exceedingly gross misunder-
standings and misrepresentation of Agas-
siz's opinions. He closed by referring to the
letter written BY AgassiZ to his father, stat
ing his aim and intention in life, an aim and
intention wonderfully adhered to and full
filled. He was, as he aimed to be, the first
naturalist of his age, a coed citizen and a
good son; beloved of all who knew him.
When he announced in gathering of schol-
airs in July, 1858, his intention to remain per-
manently in this country, the assembly rose
by sudden impulse to their feet, and greet
ed the announcement with loud and joyous
cheering
