character of the man until | heard

most eloquent lecture shed new light

A man of broad culture, keen in
sight deep learning and masterful
wit, J. Everist Cathell, S. T. D., stands
today one of the greatest orators on
the platform.
His Greatest Lecture.
OF all the subjects that he is so
richly prepared to deal with, "Abra-
ham Lincoln" is perhaps the most
popular After delivering this lecture
at Haverford College in Pennsylva-
MIA, the papers declared DR.. Cathell
could say more in a ten minute talk
than many men say in an hour"
DR.. Cathell speaks as one with au-
thorty. His words ring with truth
and in dealing with many of the
scenes of the. public life of the Great
Emancipation. it is not unusual for the
audience to be moved to tears.
The Caldwell Lecture course pre-
sents DR.. Cathell in his great lecture
"Abraham Lincoln as the third num-
Der on the course this season next
Tuesday evening at the Methodist
church, Feb. 9th.
Rarely indeed do the citizens of
the most favored communities enjoy
an opportunity of hearing an orator
the equal of DR.. Cathell, and situated
as we are in comparatively sparsely
populated section, the chance is not
one lightly to be dismissed.
