Young Men's Christian Association

New York, 1895

For some time past there has been a movement on foot to organize a Jamaica branch of the young men's Christian association. The object is to unite Christian young men of the evangelical churches in fellowship and effort. At a meeting Wednesday evening an organization was effected by electing William A. Shannon, president, and Wm. Stanton, secretary. A committee of two from each church will be appointed by the several pastors.
