In the autumn of 1891, Professor William J. Tucker, then of the Theological Seminary at Andover, now president of Dartmouth College, sent out a circular in which he proposed that there should be established in one of the more crowded districts of Boston a house "designed to stand for the single idea of resident study and work." The singleness of this idea has ever since been the guiding principle of the settlement which came of that initial effort. The present volume is simply a larger development succeeding a series of bulletins which have presented from year to year the hard-won gains of actual experience.
The writers of this volume have all been citizens of the South End of Boston for considerable periods. With one exception, they have been in residence at the South End House. Each writer has devoted himself specially to those topics with which his local interests have made him the most conversant.
