In consequence Of IN unusual amount Of
pastoral labor devolving upon the Rev. Mr..
Judd during the last three months, togeth-
er with his own i'll health, he Was obliged to
dcsist from his work for this proposed insti-
tuition, after canvassing about one-third Of
the city. The amount Of the subscriptions
secured by him reaches nearly fourteen hun
drcd dollars. Arrangements have now been
made by which he win have the assistance
Of the Rev. John Hochuly, late Of Fairfield,
in the continuation Of the work and should
our citizens yet to be called upon give as
literally - those whose subscriptions have
been already obtained, the entire purchase
money -four thousand dollars) will be raised
in this city. we M
An Institution having for its single object
the relief Of suffering by providing home
for the helpless, the sick, and the destitute,
needs no Recommendation to the sympathy
and support Of our people, except the assur-
ance that the carrying out Of the plan is
placed II the hands Of cohtpetcnt persons.
The undertaking is cmihcntly Christian
in its character, and it makes its appeal to
every friend Of religion and humanity.
The Rev. Mr.. Hochuly will at once take
up his residence in the building, and as
soon as possible the needed improvements
upon the premises win he commenced; and |
at an early day, if the liberality of our citi- |
zens shall warrant it, corporation viii be |
and the institution be- plcedsih |
1Stking order. If thus established. it win |
be ccnliqtsd upon liz brcadcst principles |
Of Christian bsneyolence and charity, and
by the Divine blessing take its place among |
those sacred enterprises Of Christendom |
which have in view the amelioration Of hu-
man misery, and the elevation of human So
riety. h9e
The Rev. Mr.. Judd is too well known in
his community to need any introduction in
The renewal Of his work. The Rev. Mr..
Hochuly is worthy Of entire confidence
md trust that their united labors win meet
with most abundant success.
