F. G. Peabody '69, Plummer Professor of Christian Morals, Emeritus, will take part in the unveiling of the busts of six distinguished persons whose names have been enrolled in the records of the Hall of Fame in New York in a ceremony occurring tomorrow.
At the unveiling Professor Peabody will receive the bust of William Ellery Channing, preacher and theologian, sculptured by Herbert Adams, donated by the American Unitarian Association and presented by the Reverend S. A. Eliot, president of the association.
Other busts to be unveiled and added to the Hall of Fame, on the campus of New York University, will be those of J. J. Audubon, naturalist; Admiral D. G. Farragut; Benjamin- Franklin; Washington Irving, historian and essayist; and Mary Lyon, pioneer in the education of women and founder of Mount Holyoke College.
Candidates to the Hall of Fame are chosen every five years by a committee of electors composed of 100 prominent Americans. Only candidates who passed on prior to 1902 are now eligible for election.
