the position they have attained. For the
revenue which they enjoy is not one
simply financial, but that OF high social
position and influence. personal indepen-
dence, with every facility for health, for
the cultivation of our purest tastes and
noblest emotions. That Wyandot Coun-
ty possesses within herself the soil, the
wealth, the energy, the men of capacity,
to place her among the front ranks OF
those counties, which adorn our State and
contribute SO much to our character as a
people, we cannot with a full knowledge
OF the facts for one moment doubt. Next
to our common schools, our agricultural
societies merit the support Of our people.
The hearty cooperation of our people,
with the labors of our judicious and in
dustrious Board, for the coming year, will
place "IHe Wyundot County Agricultural
Society," out of debt and therefore out of
danger, and on the high road to prosperi-
ty and success.
