They feel assured, however, that if their
effort, which was sincere and vigorous.
had been supported by the same spirit
which animated them, the enterprise
would have been eminently successful, and
highly useful to the town. But as the pub
lie are not disposed to encourage and as
sist that which appertains SO directly and
peculiarly to their own interest, of course.
the company do not wish to thrust their
services upon them, or persist in confer
ing fayOrs which are not desired. Such
a course would violently contravene the
practice and policy of the age, and at the
same time indicate degree of liberality
which might incense the sel6shness aud
parsimOnY of property holders. Hence
they desist in all further effort to establish
fire company.
Before the dissolution of the company,
the undersigned were authorized as a com
mittee, to make, in an article of this char
acter, public statement of their proceed
ings and of the causes which impelled
their dissolution.
