Mr.. EDIToR The. writer has been
greatly interested in reading a little yol>
ume recently published concerning "The
Harmony Society at Economy, Pa"
That society made its first settlement
in Butler county, at Harmony. George
Rapp was the founder of the society, and
accompanied the members from old WGr.
temberg, Germany, where it originated.
The book is written by Rev. Aaron
Williams, ID. d., who has had every ia.
cility for becoming acquainted with this
peculiar people, their origin, their histo-
ry, their religion, and their social system.
In other respects the learned author is
we'll qualified to execute work of this
kind, as the reader will find on perusal.
The undersigned has the honor of an in
innate acquaintance with him for nearly
forty years, and can assure the public
that the history cannot be otherwise than
reliable.
The people of Butler county should
avail themselves of the opportunity now
offered for securing the book. 1t is sold
by Mr.. Heineman, at his Book Store.
Yours,
LOYAL YOUNG.
