AbstractAn anniversary is an important time. It is a time to celebrate and a time to reflect. It is a time to give honor and a time to evaluate. An anniversary is a time to survey how far we have come and to make some projections for the future.Important anniversaries for the Clinical Pastoral Education movement are presently occurring. They are the 70thanniversary of the beginning of the Rev. Anton Boisen's work in Worcester State Hospital and the 125thanniversary of Dr. Richard Clarke Cabot's birth.The significance of Boisen's work has been noted throughout CPE literature and he has been given his rightful place in our history. It is the purpose of this paper to review the work of Dr. Cabot and to portray a fuller picture of his contributions than is generally presented.
