With great pleasure l acknowledge or
behalf OF this Association. q draft OF seventy
dollars from the young ladies OF The Gallo
pean Society. connected with the Michigan
Female College.
The people OF Michigan may well feel
proud of their Institutions Of learning The
chronicles OF these times viii note, that
while our university for young men has
been so largely represented in all the bat
ties for the Union; the young ladies OF the
Female College have 10 less manifested
their spirit and patriotism in generous COLI
tributions to relieve the hardships and SUI
ferings Of our brave soldiers
1t seems probable that the great armies
Of Sherman and Grant viii be combined
during the anticipated spring campaign and
that we may be called upon TO extend our
operations so as to reach more Michigan
men than at any time before From pres
ent indications We are IN hopes that
our hardest fighting is over and
that a few more well directed blows
may utterly destroy 'his monster slavery
and rebellion Until an honorable aud las
ting peace once more biesses our land it
shall be our endeayors to use the funds you
have entrusted 10 our stewardship so as 10
afford the relief and assistance contempla-
