right side: The people that walked in the darkness have seen a great light, they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death upon them hath the light shined. Henry D Reece.

From thee our bounteous God We every good receive Thou givst us clothing friends and food And by thy grace we live Thy pitying eye beheld How we in darkness lay From the this institution came That we might read and pray O let us greatly prize these kind instruction given For now we read thy holy book That guides our feet to heaven. O may thy Spirit bless This learning to our good And may our benefactors find The favour of their God. May we and they at last At thy right hand appear And when the toils of life are past Will meet in glory there
