At a general meeting, held in the Synagogue Chambers, Elm Street, for
the purpose of receiving the report of the institution's progress, and
to elect a board of management for the ensuing year, the following
account was submitted, which has been forwarded to us for insertion.
The honorary secretary (the Rev. S. M. Isaacs) read an interesting
report of the Society's transactions during the past year, which
demonstrated that the daughters of Israel were, as usual, active in
benevolence, visiting the sick, comforting the dying, and performing the
last duties to all who required their aid in a large congregation like
that in Elm Street. It is gratifying to hear, that not a single case of
sickness had occurred during the past year, which was not immediately
attended to by the appointed members; and it is at the same time
pleasing to be informed that the Society's funds are increasing in
proportion to its usefulness. |
