Overseers Poor - Jos. Fields, John Grace, Jacob Cook, William Cooper, Alex. Sutherland and Abraham Buckles.
At the last regular Communication of Lebanon Lodge No. 215, the following persons were elected officers for the ensuing year:
G. S. Brace, Wor. Master; Henry Fry, Sr. Warden; W. A. Evans, Jr. Warden; T. C. M. Alderson, Sec'y; James J. Henritze, Treas.; Sam'l V. Scott, Sr. Deacon; Balford White, Jr. Deacon; H. Ashbrook, Steward and fifer.
We are now having remarkably fine weather, and very seasonable. Corn and Oats are looking finely, and our Wheat is almost ready for the harvest, and promises an abundant yield, although slightly touched with the rust, but not supposed so as to injure the grain. Excuse brevity. More in my next.
