PEOPLES LECTURE COURSE. 1t was with
deep regret that the managers learned of
the death of DR.. Brodbeck and the necessity
of making change in our course caused by
this sad event. We have, however, been
exceedingly fortunate in securing as sub
stitute Rev. A. S. Gumbart, D. D., pastor of
the Dudley street Baptist church of Boston,
one of the largest and most tlourishing
churches in the city, and there are but few
Boston pastors whose services are in so
much demand. DR.. Gumbart will lecture
Monday evening, Feb. 14th, the same date
as that on which DR.. Brodbeck was to have
lectured. His subject will be "a Tramp
Through London" 1t will be lecture of
rare interest and profit, and it is hoped that
here will be liberal patronage on the part
If the public.
