Mr.. Donnelly is one of the ablest
clergymen in Michigan, and the SIM
pie announcement that he is going

overlooking.

Smith, d. M. Estey, E. A. Todd,
Geo. Harlow, and c. K. Leonard
Directors. Some $4,000 worth of
stock was subscribed for, and 10 per
cent paid in. This ensures the sue.
cess of the enterprise, though some
more of the stock should be taken
by Owosso men, but if not subscribed
for by them will be by eastern capt.
talists.
We think that all of our readers
will be interested in reading the very
able and instructive memorial address
