Synopsis
Excerpt from Dunster Memorial: Service at Dedication of Dunster Memorial Tablet November Twenty-Fourth Nineteen Hundred Seven
In thinking of Dunster as the first president of Harvard, we may always recall with pleasure the tributes of two eminent successors, J osiah Quincy and Charles William Eliot. As you face the stage of Sanders Theatre in Cam bridge, the scene of Commencement and other academic exercises, on its right extremity is the marble statue of President Quincy. It does not require a prophet or the son of a prophet to forecast that the like space on the left will some day a distant one, if it may please God be filled with the figure of President Eliot. The high dis tinction of these two great presidents makes their awards peculiarly impressive.
