Lecture on Edwin Lawrence Godkin

Mr. James Ford Rhodes, LL.D., h.'01, will deliver a lecture on Edwin Lawrence Godkin in Emerson D at 8 o'clock this evening. The subject is of particular significance because of the resumption of the Godkin lectures this year in the appointment of President Eilot as incumbent of the lectureship. Godkin was for many years editor of the "Nation" and the "New York Evening Post" and was at one time offered a professorship at Harvard which his duties compelled him to decline.
