THE recent` attempts at incendiarism in

to keep their boys ,in doors in the even

THE Rer;evr cavils at the brief history
we gave in our little daily of the Bradfifid

is too.ciPtious in his criticisms. We did
not intend to offend the self-coneeitof any
one, but toe a brief account of thb or
ganization of giv
the society. There was in)
space to mention the names of tbn who
had freely given-their services tor the
