...educational purposes in the form of bequests and in other ways. This good fortune is again seen in the Morgan fellowships which have just been received by the corporation and have been devoted to the support of resident students. The liberality of the terms which the corporation has seen fit attach to the fellowship is certainly a step in the right direction. Heretofore, we believe, the fellowships which have been established have assisted in educating graduates of Harvard in foreign countries.
