S. War Bond and Stamps! for the book, and the original copy of the broadside, "Wilmington's An swer," written by Carl Carmer, and presented to the society by Bnai B'rith, which offered the highest subscription in bonds for it. "Family History," said Mr. Canby in an explanation of the book, which will be published within six months by the Riverside Press, is an informal account of the Canby family in England from 1580 and in Wilmington from 1730 to about 1925. In Limited Edition "It is written," he stated, "not merely to record for my own family the history of their ancestors but also to present the biography of a rather typical American family-more typical than what usually gets into novels and biographies because there are no great people involved, nor any rascals, utter failures, degenerates, or incompetents." Mr.

Canby declares that accounts of the Tatnalls, Shipleys, Prices, Gauses, Flinns, Pooles, and other Wilmington families are included in this work, offerine a picture of the social and industrial background of Wilmington through two centuries. The book, which will be illustrated with prints of old paintings, photographs, and daguerrotypes, will be published in a limited edition, since Mr. Canby felt the subject was of interest only to a small group of historians and genealogists. Broadside Print Included Both the original pencil-written manuscript of Mr. Carmer's "Wilmington's Answer" and one of the hand-printed broadsides of the essay, made by Rodman Ward, are on display at the society's museum.

Only 100 broadsides were printed by Mr. Ward.
