Brief Biography

Edward Henry Hall was a Unitarian Minister who was associated with many of Boston's intellectuals. He graduated from Harvard before becoming a Minister and joined the elite Massachusetts Historical Society. As for anti-imperialism, it is not clear why Hall attended the first meeting. His sermons were not particularly outspoken on the matter and he did not become an activist like Charles Gordon Ames or Francis Ellingwood Abbot.
