Letters To Editor

To the Editor Of The SEsFINn.
Dear Sir:
On Sunday the 18th day Of Jan
nary, 1894, Miss Ella Plummer and
the writer went 20 Goshen Church.
and enjoyed a fine sermon from Rev.
William 7. Cover, and after the serv-
ice, We left that old historical church
and passed through LaytonsviIle, a
thriving village and on to the Olney
road and viewed the farms and dwell
ings Of former residents, such as
David L. Pugh, Walter Nagruder
and others.
The farms down to Olney and
Sandy Spring are well kept and in
a high state Of cultivation.
We passed On TO "Fair Mi" which
was once boarding school that the
writer attended IN 1856. The main
building which was the school room
still stands as it was then, and TO
the writer IT seemed new building
must have been built adjoining.
The Quakers sold it about the year
1850 TO Richard L. Kirk for a girls
school. His wife, Mary F. Kirk and
her brother William H. Farquhar
were the teachers, assisted by Miss
Mary P. Coffin. Friends Of the
writer who attended this school were
Laura Magruder, Harriet Ann Wat
ers, later Mrs. Nathan Cooke and
Emma Jones, who became the wife of
Reuben Riggs. This property is now
owned by a Mr.. Mathews, who came
out TO meet US and gave a kind
invitation TO walk in and view the
building but time pressed and we
promised another visit next summer.
When Mr.. Mathews heard the writer
had been to Goshen Church, he said
his grandmother was Kittie Griffith
and lived in Howard County, and
rode TO Old Goshen Church horse
back in the years that are passed.
Just outside of the entrance to
Fair Hill" is a residence once owned
by family Of Farquhars, among
them Misses Anna Edith and Eliza,
the former sometimes assisted in the
school, They have all passed on.
As we passed down on the Sandy
Spring road the scenery was lovely;
well kept farms, fine residences and
outbuildings all nicely kept We also
visited the Friends Meeting House."
it is in fine state of preservation
and looks like it did when the writer
attended it while at school about
seventy years ago.
On the way we viewed the new
building Of Emory NJ. E. Church
South. On leaving there we passed
through Rockville, our rising county
town and back to Gaithersburg, feel
ing proud Of old Montgomery County.
ANNA WATERS MERRIwETHER.
Note: The writer is a guest Of the
Methodist Home in Gaithersburg, Md.
and a life long resident Of the Coun-
ty, and viii celebrate her 93rd birth
day March IL, 1894.

lief program will be present to ex-
plain the necessary details. The most
Important to be considered in con-
nection with this program are: first,
drouth relief; second, farm rental
leases; and, third, the corn-hog re-
duction program vote.
"The State Holiday Association
has tentatively laid, down the follow
ing drouth relief program: first, to
call mass meeting in all counties
considered emergency counties to Sc
cure force behind our demands; Sec
ond, to have each mass meeting if
farmers select from among their
number grievance committee which
shall receive all grievances concern
ing relief arising within the county,
such committee to officially repres-
ent any person having any legitimate
grievance; third, we demand that re-
lief be increased up to $75 per month.
Fourth, that we attempt to get sur
rounding states to call similar meet
ings demanding that all congressman
and senators from the states affected
by the drouth, form a committee to
go to Washington to demand age
quate relief.
"The demand for more funds by the
state directors of relief from the fed
eral government have been consisten-
thy ignored and the budgets that have
been made up on the basis of pitifully
inadequate relief now available have
been consistently slashed. It is nee
essary, therefore, to present our de-
mands directly to the source of funds,
which in this case is the federal
government.
"We believe that all farm organi-
cations and all farmers should make
a special effort to take part in these
meetings so that they may be as sue
'cessful as possible.

Village Council at
Morton Pays Debt

A steady hammering on the village
Indebtedness throughout 1884 was re-
vealed when the clerks financial
statement of Morton was made
known last week.
With characteristic economy, the
village dads struck another blow at
the burden of Indebtedness this year
by wiping an additional $1,000 from
the slate which leaves the total out
standing debt only $4,000. This was
done without the need Of raising the
annual tax levy.
