CLASS OF 1878

Rev. Herbert W. Stebbins retired in August from the chaplainship of the Massachusetts State Prison, and is now living at Point Shirley, Mass.

On the occasion of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the service of Rev. Charles Parkhurst, D.D., as editor of Zion's Herald, the Boston Transcript made an extended comment, which we quote in part: "He is generally considered the greatest journalist Methodism has produced, and it has often been said of him that had he entered the secular field of this profession he would have secured brilliant recognition among the great editors of the country. Zion's Herald under his editorship has become the most influential journal in the denomination and one of the leading religious publications of the country. Dr. Parkhurst wields a trenchant pen, and has the genius for news to a degree that is the admiration and the despair of rival publications."

Secretary, William D. Parkinson, Waltham, Mass.
