Scope and Content

1872 Hamptonburgh Sept 4th. A Fair representation of the descendants of Wm Bull & Sarah Wells having arrived the President Prof R H Bull of New York called the meeting to order. Rev T Tegget of Chester opened the exercises by prayer. Victor M. Drake followed in a short address. After which there was some entertaining songs, by Mrs Crosby of Crawford Miss Bertie Gale & others & some volunteer singing by a party not descended from the loins of William Bull. Dinner then came on & the aching void was filled and quieted. After Dinner the orator of the day Robert Jackson Esq of Hamptonburgh made the annual address. Which of the faults & foibles of this noble band of relatives did nothing extenuate or of its failings weakness lack of culture insignificance
