Mr.. Notwithstanding Day was
but little observed in this neighbor-
hood. | was pleased to hear what a
pleasant time you had in Shepherdstown
on that day.
Our community has been saddened
by the death of Mrs. Elizabeth Wagely,
an aged citizen of Wageleyyille, who
calmly breathed her last on the 9th of
November, after short hut very severe
illness Monday, December lst, We as
sembled at her late residence to pay the
last sad tribute of respect to her who
had ever been true neighbor in time OF
trouble. Rev. Mr.. Rodgers, Of the
Baptist Church, preached a very appro-
pirate sermon, from St John 10th chap
ter and 1st verse : "Ie believe IN
God; believe also in me- Her remains
were taken to Your town for interment.
The Good Templars have added con
sideraby to their number since last
wrote; during the past two weeks they
have initiated seven or eight ladies', and
two persons of the sterner sex.
Leetown has organized Brass Band.
They are raising the money to purchase
their Instruments DIR. Balch is leader
of the band. Leetown is becoming
popular for rOcm music. | hope they
may succeed as well with Instrumental
music.

Of his predecessors under favorable aus
pices, and has been laboring with sue
cess and acceptance.
During the period of history covered
by this sketch, five other churches have
been built up in Shephertistown, and all
of which are indebted to the Lutheran
for some of their membership, but the
Lutheran church is the largest of all,
and holds the proudest record. The
congregation boasts that for three-quar-
tiers of century they have been blessed
with a ministry of which they have ev-
cry reason to be proud.

bition which is intended at once to Gel
CITRATE the Anniversary OF our lndepen-
dence as Nation, and our progress as
a people in arts, in manufactures, Ill ag-
ricultural, and in mining, it is most de

having the State handsomely represent

Mr.. Boteler, recommend the appoint

commend that YOU authorize either the
appointment of a State Board, as

JOHN J. JACOB.
PnU.ADELrHIA,
November 20, 1873.


Hi, ErcelIency JOIN J. JACOB, Coz
ernor Of Hest Virginia
Sir have the honor to solicit your
concurrence with the United States
Centennial Commission in the work OF
,uocurinp such representations OF the
nanral resources and industrial pro
,,ress of your State as will insure It's
successful participation in the lnterna-
tional Exhibition of 1876.
After careful deliAeraiion the Com
mission has concluded that this end
may best be attained through the in
strnmentality of State Board>, which
should tie composed Of men thoroughly
familiar with the capabilities OF the
State or Territory they represent, and
mon which will devolve the response
bility for the exhibition male under
their direction. The seheEie upon
which it has seemed best TO of9anize
these Boards is embodied in section five
of the ',regula,ions for Exhibitors IN the
United States" a copy Of which is here
with inclosed and to which ] beg to dl-
rect your attention.
The magnitude of the labor OF prepa-
ring and classifying the exhibits for
each State, and the limited time remain
ing. convince the Centennial Commls-
sion that the organization of the State
Boards cannot safely he deterred beyond
the first of April, 1874, without imper-
iliuu the interests of the exhibitors they
are to represent.
have, therefore, to express the hope
that your Excellency will lay the sub
feet before the Legislature OF your State,
with such recommendation as will III
sure the appointment of the members of
the Board, as suggested at an early day.
In order that you may have further
information of the object, scope and re-
o,,iremcnts of the work intruSted to the
Centennial Commission, the Commits
sioners for your State have been re-
ouested to confer with you, and they
will be pleased to render You any aid
YOU NAV desire, in inaugurating means
70 secure a full representation of the re
sources of Your State in the Information
al Exhibition.
am, with great respect,
Your obedient servant,
a r GosIoRN, Director General,
l.. S. Centennial Commission.
