was born in Boston, July, 1S64, a son of Thomas B. and Anne (Lunt) Frothingham. The family has been prominent in

A. B. in 1886, when he began the study of theology in the Harvard Divinity School and was graduated with the degrees
S. T. B. and M. A. in 1889. In October of the same year he was called to the First Congregational Church of New
Bedford andhas ever since served that society, his pastorate having been marked by vigorous enterprise, noteworthy
examples of which are the new chapel, adjoining the church, and the mission in the North End, called the Unity
House. He was married, in 1892, to Anna, daughter of Lyman Clapp, of Pittsfield, Mass.
