expenses of his child, the illness Of his wife,
and the money put out to start himself in
business. Finally he fell sick himself. Three

furnished proper food and supply of wood,
and have resolved to furnish further help and
provide a watcher. Mr.. Hayden is an Odd
Fellow, but not member Of the Franklin
