death found him ready to enter into tn
; rest that remaincth tor the people of God
s.
We have neither desire or intention T.
advocate the formation Of literary societ
in this town; the determined and well d
rccted cndeavors that have heretofore bee
made and to no purpose, have convince
us that the number who appreciate tn
} value or enjoy the pursuit Of literary al
. tainments is so mcager, that il is an axle
!, matte impossibiity to accomplish anythn
= of merit in this direction. There are how
;, ever several well organized Mite Societie
h in our town and one in Graceham and W
know that in the past the literary exc
:. cses have often been in fine taste and {
8 sterling merit and it is devoutly to
a hoped for, that during the coming wint'
|. they may in their several meetings, suppl
the place of the impossible lyceum.
