NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Charles Fessenden Morse '58, of Falmouth, has been chosen speaker for the Memorial Day exercises to be held in Sanders Theatre, May 30. Col. Morse graduated from the Scientific School in 1858. In 1861, he became first lieutenant of the Second Massachusetts Volunteers; in 1862, he was appointed captain, the following year, major, and in 1865, lieutenant-colonel. He fought in four of the most important battles of the civil war: Gettysburg, Cedar Mountain, Antietam and Chancellorsville. All the Harvard survivors of the war will be invited, and will be guests at a luncheon given by the Memorial Society. The usual march and exercises will take place.
