Much has been done perfect our church music. Bad
taste and affected gestures most annoying to lover
OF music and cannot TAIL destroy all the praise in the
listeners heart
There is in the choir OF Dr.. Lowcll's church lady
named White who without aiectaton without eNcrton,
bears the soul her clear notes She ought 10 bet

with this church but there's much sweetness much
ccnrness OF in her voice, that in hopes she
will be the fayorite in wider and more public circle
than the society which she each Sunday delights.
