rd about half a mile from its former position at or near Sparks Street, thus adding to Cambridge some of its most valuable area for dwellings. Between 1802 and 1820, other desirable acquisitions, including the Norton estate, were acquired from that part of Charlestown which is now Somerville. After 1732, Menotomy was the Second Parish of Cambridge, until 1807, when it was incorporated a distinct town under the clumsy title of West Cambridge, for which the name Arlington was substituted in 1867. After 1779, the territory remaining on the south side of Charles River was known as the Third Parish, or Little Cambridge, until 1807, when it became a separate town under the name of Brighton. In 1873, Brighton was annexed to Boston. It was in the natural course of things that these outlying districts should with increase of population become organized at first into independent parishes and afterward into separate towns. In 1650, they were little else but wilderness. The palisades

hat of Rev. Nicholas Hoppin, from 1839 to 1874. He stands worthily in this long pastorate with his friends, Dr. Albro and Dr. Newell. The parish of St. Peter's Church was organized in 1842. Its first house of worship was on Prospect Street. In 1867 the new church on Massachusetts Avenue was opened. St. James's Parish, in North Cambridge, was organized in 1866. A mission of the Protestant Episcopal Church had been sustained in that part of the city for eighteen months, under the charge of tts rector. In 1889 a fine stone church was completed. The parish has enjoyed an increasing prosperity in its enlarged work. There are other Episcopal churches in different parts of the city. The Episcopal Theological School was incorporated in 1867. This is described elsewhere. In other parts of the city Episcopal services are sustained. A few years since a Reformed Episcopal Church was established in Cambridgeport.

y the foundation of a church on June 7, and the corner-stone was laid by Bishop Williams July 15 of that year. Father Dougherty performed the duties of pastor of this church and congregation, together with those of his own, until May, 1867, when the parish was given to the Rev. T. Scully, who took formal charge June 9, 1867. The work of completing the church building was pushed vigorously by him, so that the structure was ready for the services of dedication on Sunday, March 8, 1868. Since 1867 he has remained the pastor, and the parish has from time to time added largely to its property, including a convent school for girls in charge of the sisters of Notre Dame, a school for boys, a hall for parish purposes, and a gymnasium. The population belonging to this church numbers between twelve and fifteen thousand. The Parish of St. Paul's Church, Mount Auburn Street. A few years after the erection of St. Mary's church in Cambridgeport, Father Dougherty saw the necessity of anothe

quite shut in, so that the passer-by gets but a glimpse of them through the wicket of a gate, this is fairly and generously open to the street, in symbol, as Bishop Lawrence used to say when he was dean, of the teaching of the school. The year 1867, in which the school was founded, was notable in the annals of the Episcopal Church as that in which a declaration condemnatory of ritualism was put forth by twenty-four bishops. It was a declaration of independence. It maintained that no Prayerrt C. Winthrop, who until his death was president of the board of trustees of the school. The Deanery was given to the school by Mrs. Gray, after the death of Dean Gray. The first dean was the Rev. Dr. John S. Stone, who served the school from 1867 to 1876. Dean Gray followed him, from 1876 to 1889. The next dean was Dr. William Lawrence, now Bishop of Massachusetts. He was succeeded, upon his election as bishop, by the present dean, Dr. George Hodges.

rsing may be entirely wanting. Thus money will be wasted, and either the whole attempt fail for want of organization, or become a most expensive, unsatisfactory form of charity. With a strong feeling that something could be done to improve this state of things, Miss Emily E. Parsons, a benevolent lady of Cambridge, who had with great acceptance served two years as nurse in the army hospitals in Fort Schuyler and on the Mississippi, during the War of the Rebellion, opened in Cambridge, in 1867, with the aid of generous individuals, a hospital for women and children. It was kept open a year, and then closed for want of a house. It was reopened in 1869. On the 13th of February, 1871, the Cambridge Hospital for sick and disabled persons was incorporated. Early in 1872 it became evident, by reason of a lack of interest in the community, that the hospital could no longer be kept open and, with the approval of Miss Parsons, it was closed May 1, 1872. It is due to this warm-hearted

Their first book, Craik's English of Shakespeare, edited by W. J. Rolfe, was published about the year 1867. Then followed the well-known series of Latin books by Allen and Greenough; the Greek Grammar, by Prof. W. W. Goodwin; Greek Lessons, by Prof. J. W. White; the Harvard Shakespeare, by Dr. Henry N. Hudson; the mathematical works of Prof. J. M. PeCourt, in the town of Cambridge, in 1845, and in 1853 was removed to its present location. In 1857 Mr. Kemp formed a partnership with Aaron Hale, under the firm name of Hale & Kemp, for the purpose of manufacturing family soap and soap-stock. In 1867 the firm was dissolved, Mr. Kemp retaining the soap-stock trade. In 1872 his sons, Horace G. and James H. Kemp, were admitted as partners. Lysander Kemp retired from the business January 1, 1892, and his sons continued it under its present firm
