Show CHARITABLE. The recent sad accident at Mendon in this county, by which young Hill lost one of his limbs, has drawn out the sympathy of the good people of the settlement, and caused them to express their charity in a very substantial manner. On Friday evening a ball was given in the meeting house, and as a result the sum of $14 was cleared. Afterward Bishop Hughes appointed a committee of young men to visit the families of the town and solicit aid, and we believe that a liberal response was given. |
