Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forty-First Annual Report of the Association for the Relief of Respectable Aged Indigent Females, Established in New York, February 7, 1814: Presented at the Annual Meeting of the Society, November 28, 1854 Twelve months have taken their rapid flight, and are numbered With the years beyond the flood, since the last Annual Report of this Association was presented to its benefactors. During that period the dreaded pestilence, that walketh in darkness, has visited every part of our land, sundering the dearest ties, and causing many hearts to mourn for those that are not. Yet Within the walls of this Asylum. In a family of nearly ninety aged persons feeble and infirm as many are, Where any prevalent disease might naturally be expected to make its ready inroad, not one instance of the cholera has occurred. We would not be understood to attribute this remarkable preserva tion to any human'foresight or skill in the management of our house hold, although a Wise supervision of diet, and other prudential measures With regard to the health of the family have been faithfully observed, but to the sovereign mercy alone of that good and gracious God, Who has ever blessed the endeavors of this Association to provide for and cherish his aged poor, would we render all the praise.
