There have been eighteen cases
treated at the Fresh air camp of the
Topeka NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. society on
the North side. The report of Mrs.
Charles Brooks Thomas. chairman of
the dispensary committee has just
been made. 1t gives a hint of the
great work being done-a work that
has been handicapped greatly by lack
of funds
The report shows that total of
S1.925.47 was collected.
The total disbursements have been
.$1,12487.
The balance on hand today is $780,
60.
The patients have contributed $20S.-
rs during the time the camp has been
established, five months.
Mrs. Thomas has devoted a great
deal of time, personally to the work
without remuneration. Her report on
the individual cases is well worthy of
careful consideration. 1t is as follows:
''Since the opening of the Tubercu-
losis camp 8 patients have been adj
mitted. Eight persons have been re-
fused admission-four on account of
the advanced stage of the disease and
four being non-residents of Topeka.
Four other persons have been offered
the privilege of the camp, but it was
refused.
''The patients may be divided into
three groups. Those receiving camp
routine, charity and pay patients and
those receiving camping privileges. The
latter merely rent ground and are dis
tinct in every way from the camp
routine.
AT present there are eight patients.
Four full charity, three paying nom
inal sums and one family having

Three Hundredth Anniversary
Celebration Closes.
LONG LIST OF EVENTS
Last Address of Exercises on the Old
Parish Of Elizabeth City 10 peliv-
cred by Jacob Heffelfnser-much
Interesting Data Is Given.

With an instructive ana entertdin
ing historical address by JACOB
Heffelfinger, the senior warden OF
the board of vestrymen and for for
ty-eight years an active member N
the church, the three hundredth an
i.iyersary exercises OF famous ola
St. Johns Episcopal church ended
last night.
Although the services since Sunday
morning have all been entertaining
and enjoyable, it is not speaking
6isparagingly of the other speakers
TO say that MIR. Heffelfinger unques-
t'onably made the address OF the.
three days celebration. Mr.. Heffei-
finger is an antiquarian of more than
local note and his recent discovery
Of the first foundation of the
church of Kecoughtan brought joys
10 hundred of Episcopalians in Vir-
ciria. His theme last night, was.
therefore, appropriate, as he gave
most comprehensive and accurate his
, tory of the. church from its beginning
In 1910 TO the present.
Early Historical Events.
After giving an interesting acccdnt
including old King Kecoughtan, who
inst inhabitated this section and the
arrival of John Smith, to be followed
hy the taking of the peninsula by the
white man, Mr.. Heffelfnger told OF
the history of the church.
Following up his narrative with
the story of the parish OF kecougi-
tan, Mr.. Heffelfinger traced the mis-
tory until 1916, when Dale set sail
for England. leaving behind him Capt.
George Webb in command and VIII
liam Mease as minister, with 20 men
and boys, eleven of whom were
farmers.
How long Mr.. Mease was minister
at Kecoughtan, or whether or not he
had a church to preach in, is not
known, but he was back in England,
in 1907.
The most interesting points of Mr..
Heffelfinger's papers are:
Name is Changed.
First house of burgesses was as
sembled in July and August, 1910.
William Tucker and William Capp, re-
pres ented this plantation. In sixth
petition TO assembly was asked TO
change name of Kecoughtan and
give that incorporation new name.
May, 1920. this request was granted.
Name changed to Elizabeth City, in
honor of daughter of King James l,
English names for English settle
nents being the fashion. Name ke-
coughtan chung to locality for many
years. and as late as 1900 Governor
Nicholson still used the Indian
name.
About 1919 came over the three
old pieces of communion silver now
at ST. Johns. All three pieces bear
Hall mark" Of 1913. Two pieces

Gently by Mr.. Jacob Heffelflnger, was
