“Dr. Rowena Morse Mann, pastor of the Third Unitarian Church in Chicago, is the first woman to preach in Appleton Chapel at Harvard University.
 Dr. Mann who is a sister of Frank L. Morse and Virgil D. Morse of this city, also is the first woman to receive a degree from the University of Jena, Germany. Her new distinction was attained recently when she broke a Harvard tradition by preaching to the students of Harvard from the pulpit of Appleton Chapel.
Never before in the nearly 300 years of the institution’s history, it is stated, has a woman conducted chapel services.”
