The inventory of assets and schedule of total liabilities have not yet been filed. *** The Batavia Relief Association. Twelve members of the Batavia Relief Association, Poormaster CROSS and Secretary YATES met at Mrs. ENSIGN's last evening. The minutes of the last meeting were read. The number of persons aided the last week and the donation sent in were recorded, and it would seem a generous Thanksgiving was enjoyed by many whose needs would never have been known except through this organization. Thanksgiving collections from the German Lutheran church and from the Free Will Baptist church were handed in by representative of the same, also one dollar from a lady, which made the whole amount (cash) $10.50. *** NEIGHBORING TOWNS.
