Huntington, Rt. Rev. Frederic Dan, D.D., Hadley, Massachusetts, May 23, 1819—July 11, 1904, Hadley, Massachusetts. He graduated from Amherst College in 1839 and from the Harvard Divinity School in 1842. He was minister of the South Congregational Church (Unitarian), Boston, 1842-1855, and from 1855 to 1859 he was Professor of Christian Morals and University Preacher at Harvard College. In 1859 he was ordained priest in the Protestant Episcopal Church and served as rector of Emmanuel Church in Boston from 1860 to 1869, when he was consecrated Bishop of Central New York. In 1853 he collaborated with Rev. Frederic Henry Hedge, _q.v._, in editing their Unitarian collection, _Hymns for the Church of Christ_, to which he contributed three hymns, 1. _O Love Divine, lay on me burdens if Thou wilt_ (Supplication) 2. _O Thou, in whose Eternal Name_ (Ordination) 3. _O Thou that once on Horeb stood_ (God in Nature) The hymn beginning _Father, whose heavenly kingdom lies_, in Longfellow and Johnson’s _Hymns of the Spirit_, 1864, is a cento taken from no. 2. _Hymns for the Church of Christ_ also includes a good many anonymous hymns, some of which may be by him, though there is no proof that such is the case. Dr. Huntington also collaborated with Dr. Hedge in editing a collection of sacred poetry entitled _Elim: Hymns of Holy Refreshment_, Boston, 1865, which includes a funeral hymn beginning _So heaven is gathering one by one_, This hymn has been mistakenly attributed to Huntington, but is an altered form of a hymn by E. H. Bickersteth beginning _Thus heaven is gathering one by one_. Although Dr. Huntington is known to have written occasional verses in religious themes later in life for his own edification he is not credited with any published hymns after his resignation from his professorship at Harvard, and none of the three listed above are in present use. J. 544, 1714 Revised by H.W.F. Hurlburt, (Hurlbut, Hurlbert) William Henry. Charleston, South Carolina, July 3, 1827—September 4, 1895, Cadenabbia, Lake Como, Italy. (His family name is spelled Hurlburt in records at Charleston but at Harvard he was registered as Hurlbut, and in later years he changed the spelling to Hurlbert). He graduated from Harvard College in 1847 and from the Divinity School in 1849. He preached in Unitarian pulpits for a few months but was never ordained as a settled minister; then he studied in the Harvard Law School for a year; then turned to journalism in New York City. After 1883 he spent most of his time in Europe, his last few years in Italy. As a student at Harvard he was a contemporary of Samuel Longfellow and Samuel Johnson and contributed three hymns to their _Book of Hymns_, edition of 1848, which they also included in their _Hymns of the Spirit_, 1864, viz: 1. _My God, in life’s most doubtful hour_,
