Of late years the roll pf membership
has augmented with unexpected sue.

ed'e' nothing daunting, the active
members took up arms and went
to work with a will. A thorough
canvass was made, but was found in-
adequate to meet the large expense
=mooted with the erection of aifhurch,
edifice, and the undertaking had reach-
ed to a clitnax, when Mr, Trivitt, a,
gentleman who has been blest with a'
