The names of the ladies who have engaged.in the design, and who have .coroperated imits completion, include' some of the first in the city. Their,j endeavors have been- continued with quietness,, yet with energy. Judge Oswald Thompson,-Messrs. Wm. O. Hud wig, S. Moms.Waln, Charles E. Lex, George M.
