Cambridge, Mass. - President Eliot
announced at the Harvard alumni din
ner that John Pierpont Morgan had
given more than S1,OO0,0OO for the erec-
ton of three of the five buildings
planned for the, Harvard medical
school on land now held in trust for
the university on Huntington avenue
in Boston.
A few days ago DR.. Warren received
a cable from Mr.. Morgan In which ne
said: Referring to our conversation
and plans submitted am prepared to
erect the central buildings and two
side payilions as a memorial to Junlus
Spencer Morgan, a native of Massa-
chusetts, and for many years a mer-
chant of Boston. You can announce
this"
Junius Spencer Morgan was the
father Of the donor.
President Eliot called attention to
the phrase, 'plans submitted" which
he said included specifications. and
said that these called for an outlay OF
more than $1,000,000.
The present medical school, biologi-
cal department, Is situated in one
building on Boylston street, next the
Boston Public Library. The erection
of the new buildings would, 1t is un-
derstood, involve disposing of this
property, which is in q part of the
city where values are very high.
When the plan was published, some
months ago, it was suggested that the
land be taken for the Public Library,
which Is already cramped for space,
although only seven years opened:
The new Morgan buildings. on Hunt
ington avenue, will include a hospital,
Hitherto Harvard Medical School has
had to depend wholly for practical
clinics upon the public hospitals.
