S. REPORTS. Moroni, Sanpete Co., June 24tj!J1874. Dear Editor: The members of the Relief Society, are generally feeling well and ready to assist in the great Work which lies before us. Many deaths among the children, and a few among adults have occurred through scarlet fever, which, I am happy to say, has subsided. Our Society have raised one hundred dollars to assist in gathering the poor Saints: they have donated upwards of forty dollars, within the last few months for the benefit of those at home who were sick and needy, and the sisters have been very kind in visiting them and administering to their wants. We, as a Society, have been taking your paper and desire to renew our subscription, wishing tho Exponent good success, Tjlitha Avery, Sec'yO as Regen t pro tern; was i ndorsed montsrv rAstnmtirihS.
