At———, visited No. 325, placed December 11,1863; with
a wealthy farmer. This dear child is very pretty—has been
adopted, with every advantage, both temporal and spiritual,
afforded. Behold a brand plucked from the burning; an orphan
girl of twelve years, rescued from one of the lowest dens of in-
iquity and crime in our city, frequented by both whites and
blacks.

At Sandy Hook, Washington county, Md., visited No. 48,
placed February 14, 1861, with J. H., a well-to-do farmer.
Boy nearly of age, a great favorite. This was a news boy,
taken from a wretched celler, in a degraded locality in the
southern section of our city. His home has made a "man" of
him.

Near Oakland, Allegany county, Md., visited No. 5 placed
November 3, 1860, with J. P., a poor farmer, owning 1,000
acres of poor land—a poor house and a poor manager. Few
educational advantages, either spiritual or intellectual. .Boy
the son of a destitute widow. REMOVED HIM, after rny return to
Baltimore; having traveled SEVEN HUNDRED MILES,
and visited TWENTY-NINE CHILDREN, at an expense of
only N1FE DOLLARS AND NINETY GENTS.
