HOW THE WASHINGTON CITY ORPHAN ASYLUM CAME INTO EXISTENCE—ITS EARLY STRUG- GLES AND ITS BENEFACTORS, At the memorial exerelses of the Inte Dr. John C.Hall, which was held last Tuesday at the Wash- ington City Orphan asylum, of which be was a generous benefactor, Mr. John C. Harkness, who is one of the directors of the institution, read the following interesting historical sketch of the tnstitution, which he had prepared at the request of the ladies: The sad resultsof the war of 1812 were not con- fined to the destruction of the public buildings, but left to the eare and sympathy of the citi- zens full share of the orphanage resulting largely therefrom. ‘The proclamation of peace sent a thrill of Joy through every household, and elicited the warmest sympathy for the fatherless children brought to public notice. ‘Mrs, Gen, John P. Van Ness, moved by the fre- quency of appeals to, her charity, consulted with Mrs, ‘Rev, Obadiah Brown, of the First Baptist church, as to the feasibility of effecting 4a organization by which permanent re- Hef could be assured for_ the hel less orphans of the city and neighborhood. As a result of this interview, a public meetin; was called through the press for ‘‘the ladies of Washington and neighborhood, to ve held in the Half or Representatives, on ‘Tuesday, Octo- ber 10th, 1815, to consider the propriety of in- stituting an atylum for the relfef and mainte- ance of orphans.” At the time and place named a number of ladies resj ded to the call. After ayer by Re Dr. Caldwell, Mrs. Hunter was invite reside, and Mrs, Samuel H. Smith to act as secretary. A draft of a constitution was presented to the meeting for consideration, which, after belng amended, was adopted and the Institution named *'Thé Washlugton City Orphan Asylum.” The following officers were elected, viz: First directress, Mrs. James Madi- second do,, Mrs, J, P.

While debating | the gnesiion: How Can These Provided? | Mr. Win.

In this connection it may be observed that to those who are familiar with the onerous duties gratuitously discharged by the lady managers— hot infrequently in the presence of marked tn- xratitude—their continuance in the noble char- ity is Indecd @ marvel, and should command the gratitude of the community whom they serve, As a frame work to give due prominence to the beautiful picture of the disinterested char- ity of the lady managers, it should be men- Uoned in this sketch that when the institution was without a home they ard their friends, at @ large outlay of personal effort, involving ‘In- vestments of time, toil and means, held a series of fairs at Odd Fellows’ hall, creditable to all concerned, and as a final result they paid over fo the trustees to ald them in the building of this present home upwards of $21,000.
