heard.the rumor that they were expected,
as speakers had so oftbn disappointed our
people by failing to he present. Happily
on this occasion, however the speakers
were in attandance at the appointed hour.
But unfortunately the late hour at which
notice was given of the meeting, ana pre
vious disappointments, made the 'attend
ance small ; but those fortunate enough
to, be present had the pleasure of listen
ing to two as able, earnest aud eloquent
,addresses as we ever heard delivered. It
iSno wonder that these gentlemen are so
suceessfid in winning nien from the path.
of intemperance. None who hear theth
can doubt that tbeir efforts are .put forth
throl44ll no .pecuniary or selfish motives,
but from ‘an earnest desire - that others
shall shun the path that can lead onli.to
misery, woe',and degrehation. At the
conclusion of the addresses several names
were added to the Murphy Pledge roll..
