The Committee have a full persuasion , that sufficient good will appear from their report to have been effected by this Society , not merely to justify its having been originally instituted , but also to afford its friends a bright prospect of its future and certain usefulness , and ,
therefore , to interest them warmly in its continued support . And even with regard to the instances in which the Committee have not been able , for the present , tx > carry the objects of the Society into effect , the hindrances that have arisen are so
entirely of a temporary and casuafl nature , as ought by no means to occasibn despo-udeney , but rather to awaken u& to * the necessity of a more lively zeal , antl more spirited exertions . In compliance witih tfre getieral w&h of tlWJ Society ; , expressed on the day of
