the attendance at the annual, meeting of

was large, but not as: much so as on some

owing to appearances threatening rain in,.

A Quincy correspondent in the last Re

of this society 'towards strangers and the

dwindled down to about eight persons of
both sexes, and but a few more years will
pass until the institution will be among
the things that were. One

only this small remnant is left.
The land known as the Nunnery Farm,
excepting about twenty acres, is a grant
of the Common wealth to the Seventh-day
Babtist Society for the use of single per
'sons only. The founders came from Lan
caster county, and were among ' the early
inhabitants of this valley. For a number
of years the society was quite large, and
both men and women wore a peculiar
style of dresi. Of late years their dress
and their customs differ little from those
of other people. It will not be many
years before the State will again come in
to possession of the Nunnery property,
although the denomination outside of the
Nunnery will doubtless continue to wor
ship in the old church.

understand Mr. F. stated that if our peo

subscriptions the exteLsion of that road
this far would be guaranteed and also a
guarantee given for six per cent. on the
money thus invested. Such a promise,
if it means anything, is certainly a liberal
one. This is about all we have beep able
to glean in reference to the matter, and
hence forbear further comments for the
present,

day and the Sacrement of the Lord's Sup

meetings were closed at noon on Wednes

were held is a fine three story brick build

of foundation stones, preparatory to pull

Hoover (father of Frank) was superin
tending the work, and he in common with
-many of the lookers-on warned the men
of the hazardous nature of the undertak

the remonstrances of those who saw the
danger at a safer distance. They were

only now remains for the people to unite
