This sum was ovcrs1bscribcd and the
majority OF those who were on the lists
met their obligations promptly.
There were some. however. who neg
lectcd TO remit. Those who promptly
paid their subscriptions are naturally
dissatisfied at the failure or the others
10 redeem their promises, IT was the
agreement and The anticipation that the
mortgage indebtedness would he lifted by
January !, 1910. and this would have beeu
done had the subscribers lived up 10
their word.
The commit tecmcn. al the close Of yes

subscriptions will come forward promptly.
