D|sBANDS AFTER
MANY YEARS
Richmond County Relief Associ-
alton Goes Out of Existence
By Special Correspondens.

BY special correspondents.
Richmond County Relief Association
organized in Tottenville forty-two
years ago, disbanded last night after
struggling along for the past several
years. The association was started
In 1877 by members of Huguenot
Lodge No. 381, F. and A. NJ, as a
benefit association and on the death
of any member each one was assessed
the sum of $2.10 that was turned over
to the beneficiary named. After a
while the association branched out
until 1t took in others outside of the
lodge and the membership extended
over the entire fifth ward
1t started out with a membership
of about fifty and at one time there
were $50 or the roster. At the dis
bandment there were ninety members
on the roll, thirty-two in class A and
sixty-eight in class B. Each received
a notice of the meeting and there
were but eight that made their APP
pearance, six men belonging to class
A and two women members of class
B.. Three of the number were off,
GERS. Charles w. Knight who has
been the president of the association
for tw~enty-eight years, called the
meeting to order and after explaining
the call the vote was taken that dis
banded the organization. The asso-
citation has paid out more than
$4,000 in claims during its existence
and when the disarmament took place
there was not a cent in the treasury.
With the exception Of the secretary
all of the officers of the association
gave their services without any COM
~pensation. The secretary only re-
ceived the ten cents per capita at the
death of a member for postage and
collection of the fines and dues. For
the past four years Charles N. Leh-
man, the secretary has given his SER
vice gratis because of the small men,
bership and the hard struggle that the
association was being put through.
At n time the association was one
of the strongest in this section of the
state, but during the past few years
1t began to go down when many
deaths occurred and no new members
were being taken into the orgapiza-
ton.
