The Trustees of the Dudleian Lectures have appointed President George E. Horr, D. D., of the Newton Theological Institution, to give the Dudleian Lecture for the current academic year. The subject of the lecture is the fourth in the series prescribed by the founder, Judge Paul Dudley 1690, in 1750:
"The fourth and last Lecture I would have for the maintaining, explaining, and proving the validity of the ordination of ministers or pastors of the churches, and so their administration of the sacraments or ordinances of religion as the same hath been practiced in New England, from the first beginning of it, and so continued at this day.--Not that I would any ways invalidate Episcopal Ordination as it is commonly called and practiced in the Church of England; but I do esteem the method of ordination as practiced in Scotland, at Geneva, and among the dissenters in England, and in the churches in this country, to be very safe, scriptural and valid; and that the great Head of the Church, by his blessed spirit, hath owned, sanctified, and blessed them accordingly and will continue so to do to the end of the world. Amen."
The lecture will be given in Emerson J, on Wednesday, May 4, at 8 P. M.
The lectures announced to be given by Professor Rafael Altamiray Crevea have been cancelled.
