INTRODUCTORY.


WE take pleasure in presenting herewith, the CAMBRIDGE CITY DIRECTORY for 1889, in the regular series, No. 38. We have en- deavored, as heretofore, to execute our work, in its various departments, in a manner that shall commend it to our patrons and the general public. Every facility suggested by long and varied experience in the business has been made use of, and neither pains or expense has been spared. We shall be glad to receive, from whatever source, any suggestions which may make our annual Directory, more complete, more accurate, or more useful. May we not, on our part. expect a pecuniary support that shall do credit to the characteristie public spirit and enterprise of Cambridge?


As usual, a full Directory of Harvard University may be found on page 617.


We extend our thanks to all who have aided in the prosecution of the present issue.


The following synopsis is appended : -
