BRETHREN: Having identified myself with
your cause for many years past, feel that may
venture, with safety, to trespass for moment
upon your indulgence. Prompted by desire TO
honor God, we are engaged, as you are aware,
in the erection of new Church edifice. This
enterprise is not designed to invade any other
communion, or to interfere with any other organ
lied congregation, but from the 'usappropriated
materials which are yet lying, as it were, in the
open field, to rear spiritual superstrncture to the
honor of Jehovah's name. Thus far God and the
people have smiled upon our efforts, and our
Church edlhce is now enclosed. But we need
further aid, and the ladies who in part compose
the congregation, will commence Festioal on
Monday evening next, in Iddd's Concert Hall,
for the sale of Fancy and useful articles and Re
freshments May not solicit from you smile
of encouragement BE assured that any sub
stantial evidence, ho,oeper small, of your friendly
regard, will be long and gratefully remembered
by your felow-aborer In the cause Of humanity.
