The trustees add that "the idea of the
building of this chapel by aid of volun-
tary contributions and without a state
appropriation is unique, and on its com.
pletion Vermont will have the proud dis.
tinction of having the first building pro-
vided in this way. On the strength OF
contributions already received the erect.
ion of the structure will be commenced
in the spring, relying on other contribut
ions to bring the total up to $500
whichlsum at least will be required
