Title

Great Risk Remaining in the City, Etc.

Description

Wilkins expects to have permission to proceed to Philadelphia shortly. At that time, he hopes to complete the arrangements respecting the stores. There will be a considerable supply needed for the coming year which, if provided at Philadelphia, will save much expense. Hodgdon deserves the thanks of the public for continuing his exertions in the city during the outbreak of the contagious disease.
