 The Canaan Hose Company, which is alive, active, able to give a good reason for it's existence, and has oc- casional use for dishes, would like to possess the dishes supposed to be owned by the "Canaan Assembly," which ap- pears to be dead, well-nigh forgotten and having no use for them. The dishes are still in existence-most of them-but from present appearance there is nobody with authority to act for the Assembly. George Roger was the last president of the Assembly, and at present probably has little or no concern for their fate. If anybody else feels called upon to assert authority in the matter, let him or them speak up or forever hold his or their peace. and the dishes will probably find their way into worthy hands where they will | Hn oohpIxy rrO01
