manhood. 1t so happened that my en-
trance on the rights Of manhood was

announcement that either Of them
would be present. health and strength
permitting, at future meeting was
sufficient to rouse fierce enthusiasm
among our elders.
To one who had been all that time
out Of the current it seemed an odd and
slightly amusing fact that while in
1868 lay representation was the great
issue. in 1888 woman representation led
all other topics; abbott. the former was
much farther advanced in 1868 than the
latter In 1889, or in 1892 for that mat
