Dear Sir,—It would make me happy to give to the city of Cambridge the tract of land bounded by Cambridge, Trowbridge, Broadway and Irving streets, in the city of Cambridge, and to build thereon and give to said city a Public Library building, under the following conditions:— That on or within said building tablets be placed bearing the following words:— First: Built in gratitude to God, to his son, Jesus Christ, and to the Holy Spirit.

It was the purpose of the founder that the teachings of the school shall at all times embody and distinctly set forth the great doctrine of justification by Faith alone in the Atonement and Righteousness of Christ, as taught in the Articles of Religion, commonly called the thirty-nine articles, according to the natural construction of the said articles (Scripture alone being the standard) as adopted at the Reformation, and not according to any tradition, o blend the most earnest piety with the most active intelligence; and so to cultivate a deep, enthusiastic, reasonable faith; the Cambridge school stands very high among the powers which bid us hope great things for the work which the servants of Christ will do for his glory and the salvation of the world in the years to come.
