He was prepared for college at the Boys' High School of Louisville, Kentucky, and in ISSI was graduated from Princeton Uni- versity, as valedictorian of his class. In 1884 he received the degree of M. A. from the same institution. He was a member of the Princeton chapter of Phi Beta Kappa. After taking the full course at the Prince- ton Theological Seminary, which course he completed in 1885, he remained there a year, studying and teaching. He was ordained by the Presbytery of New York in 1886 and in the same year became pastor of the HOld Firstl' Presbyterian church of New York City, where he remained until 1890. The two years following were spent in theological study at the University of Berlin and in travel. In 1894, having returned to America, Mr. Harlan was called to the Third Presbyterian church of Rochester, New York, in which pastorate he remained for seven years. He received from his Alma Mater the degree of D. D. in june, IQO2, and in 1901 had been unanimously chosen by the Board of Trustees to be president of Lake Forest College.
