Report of Relief Committee.

The committees from the several churches met Sunday afternoon, and gave reports of their subscriptions. Though only a partial canvass had been made, yet the result was very encouraging. The committee believes #2OO will be sufficient to supply the needs of our poor till spring work begins’ iu earnest. This amount should be raised, and can be if all our citizens do all in their power to help on this good work. The committee made disbursement of #45 of the funds on hand for the immediate relief of nine families. Belle Kerr, Sec’y.
