answer:
B Emigrated people from
Europe
From the life of Levi Ward Reed:
In his capacity of presiding officer of the Ward, where he resided, the
poor were the especial objects of his love and kindness. He extended aid in a
quiet way, his private means being liberally used for the benefit of others,
the objects of his generosity not being confined to his own Ward. An instance of
his practical ideas and method of helping others may be cited. He furnished
means for a considerable number of people to emigrate from Europe. This was
advanced to them in the nature of a loan. When they came here he would provide
a home for them and find them employment to earn means to pay off their
indebtedness and become established sufficiently acquainted with the
circumstances in the new land, they would start out as they chose; but his kindness
did not stop on merely enabling them to come here; it extended to opening the way
for them to get a start.
