New Gate Will Be Erected Honoring President Eliot

Wooden Sections of Yard Fence Will Be Replaced With Iron


By

A large memorial gate in honor of the late President Eliot, which is to be erected on Quincy street between Emerson Hall and the President's house, will be completed in time for the Tercentenary celebration next year.

This gate, and 770 feet of decorative iron fence, which will be used to replace the existing wooden structure on Quincy street, is the gift of the class of 1908. The fence which surrounds the Yard was built in sections over a period of years extending from 1890 to 1915, and no two are quite alike; however, the designs have been made so that all that sections will now be in harmony.
