Lyman Beecher Fund in the School of Religion, Yale University, was established May 2, 1872, by a gift of ten thousand dollars from Henry W. Sage, Esq., then of Brooklyn, New York, in memory of Lyman Beecher, of the Class of 1797, Yale College, who died January 10, 1863. In accordance with the wishes of the donor, this gift was devoted by the Yale Corporation to the establishment of a Foundation to be designated as The Lyman Beecher Lectureship on Preaching, to be filled from time to time, upon the appointment of the Corporation, by a minister of the Gospel, of any evangelical denomination, who has been markedly successful in the special work of the Christian ministry. With the authorization of the donor, the Corporation, in May, 1882, voted that henceforth the Lyman Beecher Lecturer shall be invited to lecture on a branch of pastoral theology or on any other topic appropriate to the work of the Christian ministry. In December, 1893, the donor authorized the Corporation if at any time they should deem it desirable to do so, to appoint a layman instead of a minister to deliver the course of lectures on the Lyman Beecher Foundation.
