User-Contributed Transcription Officers for term No. 3 were chosen in May. This election passed off in an orderly way. The list being long, I'll endeavor to be brief, and just name brother Mitchell who was chosen for Chief. He selected very good supporters this quarter. One of them being a Minister's daughter. Worthy Treasurer was the next office to fill. For this was chosen a young man whom for short we call Bill. He sits on the left of our Chief, has W. T. on his sash and keeps our dues and fees, and in fact - all our cash. Our Secretary Financial has a great deal of care but she is very hopeful and will not despair. She thinks her friends cut up a mean caper when they appointed her to read the old paper there being no one who can better wield the pen. Brother Price was elected to office again. As Secretary he has acquired considerable renown. He is honored with the assistance of the Belle of our town. For Chaplain this term we have Brother Phillip Steuben, a minister of the gospel and one of the finest of men.
