A few days since there was published In
this pApsr ono OF the most remarkable let.
tors evcr written by any woman. Some Of
the statements made and facts IL contained
were 10 unusual and the interest. not to say
excitement. occasioned was 90 great, that
an Investigation for the benefit Of the pub
lie seemed a necessity. In the pursuit of
such investigation l visited Port Chester.
N. Y. and at the hotel, on the street and In
the stores, l heard . great deal of talk on
the very subject ! was investigating. Rev.
Ernest l.. Scott, after ! explained what !

Rev. Samuel o. Curtice, pastor Of the

Hon. Addison Johnson, member of the
board of supervisors and their delegate to
the assembly at Albany. said: II have

toms instead of what causes them. and not
realizing their great danger until in many
cases too late for human aid.
