Status: Needs Review

The large front window of the hcurch was reserved
for a Stowe Memorial at her request, as the congre-
gation was formed from the people of all denomina-
tions who gathered for Professor Stowe's Bible
readings, but in all these years it has never material-
ized. It seems fitting that this tribute should be paid
in the place that she loved so well and where so many
pilgrims come to worship at her shrine.

The people of Mandarin are trying to raise money
for this purpose, but this is a mission church and they
are too poor to do this without the help of her North-
ern friends. The colored people whom she taught to
read and write are collecting what they can in grate-
ful acknowledgement of her efforts in their behalf. A
committee has been formed and as soon as a sufficient
amount has been raised for an adequate memorial
they will see that it is done.

Any sum will be gratefully received, and may be
sent to either

Mrs. Norman Merry, Mandarin, Fla.
Mrs. Susan H. Hooker, Trustee,
15 Carthage Road, Rochester, N.Y.
