unpleasant things connected with the
Office Of Trustee, and therefore cannot
fully appreciate the sacfifrss, of coma

that they propose to ressin them in their

plment Of which the gsnthhen may
well feel proud, it is an act pfpFAcieal
wisdom on the part of the residents of

that Mr.. SAMUEL ORR should again
