1t is rather singular that so large body of

the above named gentlemen are the only
citizens of Edgefeld who are members of
the association Hail all hail to our

learn that there are seVenty-One orphans
in the Asylum, all in good health The
thanks of the association we're rendered to

appropriation for the benefit Of the orphans,
and also to the butchers generally, for
