The Brooklyn-based Women’s Union negation honors, and a note about women who support themselves. The forty-seventh anniversary of the New York Bible Society was celebrated. Bibles and Testaments valued at $13,572 were issued during the year. Revenue of the year, $21,926, expenditures, in aid of West sufferers, brought total receipts to $281,999.67 by Saturday night.
