A Plea for Harvard: Showing That the University at Cambridge Was Not the Same Name Established for This Seminary by the Constitution of Massachusetts But That the Name Authorized by That Instrument Was Harvard University (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Plea for Harvard: Showing That "the University at Cambridge" Was Not the Same Name Established for This Seminary by the Constitution of Massachusetts but That the Name Authorized by That Instrument Was "Harvard University"

Notwithstanding the tendency of the tenor of this Note to mislead the public mind as to the material facts upon which the right of the seminary to take the name of Harvard University depended, it did not seem to be from its nature important enough, nor yet, in view of the circumstances under which it was issued, to have a sufficient degree of publicity, to justify any public comment upon its statements and objects.
