lghened and charitable design of placing copy OF the
same in every family in the State. The great merit Of
there tracts generally entities them TO such distinction
To carry this design into practical effect will am aware
shall as trust many others will, chserfulIy share with
those enlightened and patriotic men VINO nave enosskeu
