cost per annum for the running expenses of
the association such as printing, postage, sal
aries, ETC.. has been but 70 cents per men,
Der. There are at the present time nearly
$500 members in this association, and if there
are on an average four persons dependent on
each member, we have 10, 600 persons de-
pendent on this association. 1t is safe to say
that 60 per cent. of our members are men of
limited means, and they avail themselves of
the benefits of this association to make
provision for their families in the event
of their death. There is no doubt
in my mind that this and kindred associations
are great benefit to the public. could
cite a number of instances which have come
under my observation where the town would
not only be obliged to take charge of and
bury the remains, but provide for the family.
will mention one or two of the many such
casess In 1878 one of our members died,
leaving a widow and four little children. His
long sickness had left the family in needy
circumstances, the children barefoot, the
widow destitute of proper clothing. They
would not let their wants be known while he
was living, and upon being appraised of his
death the proper officer of this association
visited the family, provided for their imme-
date wants. clothed the children and paid
the widow after the funeral was over 81, 800
In cash. In 1879 one of our members was
supposed to have been lost at sea, with his
vessel and crew. They have never been
heard from since leaving port. Our board
of directors wishing to provide for the FAM
lily, three in number, two members of the
board of directors put themselves under
bonds to stand between the association and
all loss if the amount due was paid from our
funds. After filling the sureties the money
was paid them and properly invested in Uni
ted States bonds. The family wants were
provided for, and at the close of the year
the widow received 3d. 77 instead of s., 200,
which was paid these two directors at the be-
ginning of the year. We do not shirk the
of any claim. In 1876 one of our
members committed suicide, and within eight
days the widow was paid the amount due
from this association. These are a few of
the many cases which we have experienced,
and are offered to show that the broad man
tie of charity underlies our actions and do
ings. We earnestly protest against taxing
the widows dollar. No one is making money
out of the associations. The board of di-
rectors give their time and services without
one cent of pay. The funds are not squan-
1ered in paying fancy salaries or erecting
large buildings, but are kept in the members
pockets until called for by death. We have
