PUBLISHERS' CARD.


The publishers desire to express their thanks to the people of Rochester, for the courtesy and aid extended to them in their labor of canvassing for the Directory. And while efforts have been made to have the Directory correct, patrons will please bear in mind the difficulty of compiling an edition of so large a list of names without an occa- sional orthographical error; and we trust that all who give the work any attention will look for its merits rather than its defects.

BOCHE


THAT'S ALL. 71786


A little boy once had a dynamite bomb, That's all, that's all; Not a soul know where he'd gotten it from, That's all; that's all; He played with it until he thought he must know What, was in it; said; he, "Now I must go Get a hammer; " he did, and he hit it one blow; That's all ; that's all.


Now that ladies are donning the hoops, That's all, that's all; That crinoline bills will bust pocket books, That's all, that's all; Now there's the young wife who is out on the flirt, For instead of three 'yards 'twill be nine for her skirt, While her husband is wearing a short-waisted shirt, That's all; that's all' III


For bargains in clothing go to Lothrops, Farnham & Co., That's all, that's all; Their price for the best is exceedingly low, That's all, that's all; ; Everything there that gents wear will be, Most wonderful bargains in clothing we see, On Market street, Rochester, at number forty-three, That's all; that's all.

later, April 15, 1829, at the house of John York, by Rev. J. J. Wentworth, when seventeen persons received the hand of fellow- ship. The first clerk of the church was Jesse Meader, who after- wards became one of our most useful ministers.
