convenient to have some definite
point from which to date. To
the original settlers on these
shores Noahs flood was a very
real catastrophe, In which every
thing on the earth was washed
clean: and, by reference to the
Bibles OF 90 years ago, one may
learn that this flood occurred

forefathers the time that had
elapsed since the food was a Ions
period TO contemplate; but now
adays we are oontented to look
upon the $4,000 years, more or
less, since the last glacier left
these shores as mere moment OF
time in the great past.
We are. indeed. very close to
