ers Of men, these peaceful settlers have dis.
tsnced those of all other parts of the country,
and their influence has extended to other com.

fathers settled there, and accepted the eternal
testimony against slavery; to it they have
unanimously adhered. This is the ancestral
centre of the Stablers, Hallowells, Brookses,
Farquhars, and other noble families. When
The present troubles began, the Southern
Wrongs party held meeting at Rockville, and,
