A County Historical Society.

extended Messrs J. q. Whitall, Rev. Edw
Dillon, Dan'l l. Pine, J. G. Griscom, Chas.
Knight, Benz. w. Pierce, Geo. E. Person
w. Harrison Livermore, Hon. d. 0. Wat
kins, Jos. j. Summerill, A j. Green, A. H.
Swackhamer, and J. d. Carpenter met in
Rev. Edward Dillon's study on Monday
last to consider proposition advanced by
Mr.. Whitall of organizing Gloucester
County Historical Society.
A temporary organization was effected by
electing George E. Pierson, President, and
B. w. Pierce, Secretary.
Mr.. Whitall then outlined the objects of
the society, to wit, to preserve to posterity
the events and objects of the life of the
past and our own generation. While much
of the past has been lost by reason of lack
of organized effort at preservation, much
information and many relics of the past
could be rescued and preserved and made to
form an interesting exhibit of the patriotism
and public spirit OF the first settlers of our
county, their trials and accomplish
ments, all of which constitute their
contribution to our present position
us an imp rant division of our state and the
nation. He then read a letter from Gen.
Davis, of Doylestown, of the Bucks County
Historical Society in which the plan on
which that successful society was builded,
was outlined
Mr. Pierson read a letter from VIM. w.
H. Snowden, of Virginia, formerly of this
county, requesting some historical data.
On motion of Mr.. Watkins the Chairman
was instructed to appoint a committee of
five to formulate a plan OF organization,
prepare constitution and bylaws and take
steps to have the society incorporated
Under that motion the following commit
tee was appointed John G.. Whitall, Rev.
Edward Dillon, W. Harrison Livermore,
Daniel L. Pine and ]. D. Carpenter.
On motion of Mr.. Livermore a commit
tee of three was appointed to consult with
the Property Committee of the Board of
Freeholders to secure one of the rooms in
the Court House for the use of the society.
Messrs. Livermore, Knight and Griscom
were appointed.
During the discussion inquiry was made
if any one knew of "Abbott's History of
Gloucester County"
1t is the purpose to have every section of
the county represented in this society and
to that end correspondence is solicited from
those who approve the organization of the
society and would like to aid in its useful
ness by uniting Herewith. Address, Geo.
E. Pierson, Woodbury., N. J.

SMALLPOX REPORT UNTRUE.
No Apprehension of Epidemic Felt in
: Steamship Circles.

New York, Jan. 12.-In steamship
circles the opinion is freely expressed
that the report from London regard.
ing the fear of an epidemic of small
pox there during the coming spring
and summer is exaggerated. AS far
as the steamship crews are concerned,
no apprehension is felt. Smallpox, it
is said, is exceedingly rare among
sailors on the transatlantic lines, be-
cause it is the regular custom to have
all members of the crews vaccinated
before they are allowed to enter upon
their duties on board steamers.
