Whereas it has become necessary
for Mrs, Sarah M. Lucas, who is one

make her home in a new field, and
among other friends, and,
Whereas Sister Lucas is peculiarly
endeared to our Circle, for having
served as Army Nurse to the troops

things well, consoling our hearts

tions, take occasion to extend to
