AS secretary of the Fair Association
Captain ]. d. Hereford, by his uniform
courtesy and great efficiency, cons
tributed no little to the satisfactory
measure of success achieved at the last
meeting. Captain Hereford is a sober,
accomplished and courteous man of
business, and deserves the confidence
80 universally reposed in him. We
are glad to learn from him, as we do,
that the directors are already at work
to make our next fair great success.
The CORE spondence relative thereto is
a heavy task for the secretary.
