Mr. C. W. Furlong in Union Tomorrow

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Mr. Charles Wellington Furlong, the artist and writer, will lecture on "The Greek Sponge Divers of Tripoli and the Finding of the Frigate 'Philadelphia'" tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock in the Living Room of the Union.

Mr. Furlong will describe the seizure of the frigate by the Barbary corsairs, and its recapture and burning in Tripoli harbor in 1804 by Lieutenant Decatur; the hazardous vocation of the Greek sponge-divers, who aided him in the search for the wreck.

The lecture will be open only to members of the Union.
