We had for visitors Sallie Caulis, Sue Leggett
Debbie & Alban Brooke, Lottie & Walter Pleasants,
& Mary B. Kirk.

Benjamin H Miller was made forman,
and the secretary being absent (as usual)
Pattie R. Stabler served pro tem.

The storm prevented a walk aroud to
see the views which we know are fine,
and the garden which we heard was good

The meeting was called to order after the
usual hour, the minutes of last meeting
read, & the following questions asked.

1st. Will the insects on Wm Moores cherries
injure the trees ? It is thought they
will & no one seemed able to give a
remedy.

2 Do any members think it worth
while to battle with fate against the
flies ? Not much, some thought it
would answer the purpose to burn them with
alcohol, by saturating a rag & setting fire to it.
