He received the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws from Harvard in 1806.
The exercises will be held in Sanders Theatre in conjunction with the Massachusetts Bar Association on the afternoon of February 4. The courts of Massachusetts will suspend session for that day. An address will be delivered by Professor J. B. Thayer, of the Law School.
