The lecture proved a success both financially and in the marked pleasure with which it was received by a very select audience. In fulfillment of his generous purpose in the application of the proceeds, Glazier on the succeeding morning addressed a letter to the Assistant Adjutant-General, Department of Massachusetts, Grand Army of the Republic, in the following words: Revere House, Boston, _May 9th, 1876_. Captain Charles W. Thompson, A. A. G. Department of Massachusetts, G. A. R.
