- "More than three hundred young men in the Northern states, are in similar circumstances. These are not, indeed, all orphans; neither are they all sick ... all of them are poor, and their family friends are not able to assist them. ... These interesting objects of charity, have the united testimony of the officers of all the colleges, that their scholarship is respectable, and in some instances, very superior ... Aaron P. Cleveland Esq. of Boston, treasurer of the American Education Society, will receive money, or boxes of clothing for this class of indigent young men."--P. 16.
