A RETURN of the MODE of ELECTION adopted by.the Elder Brethren of the VtINITY-HOUSE,,on adwitting PENSIONERS to the BENEFIT of the FUNDS of the CORPORXIION applicable to CHARITABLE PUR POSES. • . • The CORPORATION Of TRINITY.IIOUSR, obe dience to the Order of the Honourable House of Commons, to lay before them,—" :A-Return of " tie Mode of Election adopted 1-57 tbe,Eider " Brethren 4Of the Trinity-House, o,rl admitting " Pensioners to the Benefit of the. Foods of the " Corporation applicable to Charitable _Pur poses,"—are desirous of giving the Honourable House the fullest information in their power ; in order to which it will be necessary to enter into some detail. There is no trace in the records of the Corpo ration, when the present usage respecting the mode of the distribution of its funds, as applicable to eharitaWc put poses, had commencement ; the most ancient records of the - Corporation* having been burned with their house in Water-lane, above a century past. _ _ _ The origin of the Charity appears to date prior to the reign of king Henry the eighth, at which period an association of maritime characters ex isted for the purposes of conducting ships and vessels belonging to the Crown, as well as all de scriptions of merchant vessels ;- when they mair lained their own poor, or those of the fellowship. Bit they were not incorporated until that reign. In the eight year of it, a Royal Charter was granted, with very extensive authority over ship men and mariners - , with powers to make laws, ordinances and statutes for the relief, increase and augmentation of the shipping of the realm, and with authority to levy pains, subsidies, amer ciaments and forfeitures on offenders, &c.; to enable them to perform, amongst other things, act s of picky or charity, as may be seen in the exemplication of that Chatter. . . . . The Act of the eighth of Queen Elizabeth re- Cognizes the Corporation so constituted ; and in the- thirty-sixth year of her reign the Lord High Admiral surrendered to her Majesty the ballast age, buoyage au l beaconage which appertained to his office, rtvesting her Majesty to confer tl ,- em on the -Trinitv-house ; which . her Majesty did accordingly. granting those tights to the Mas ter, War !rns , and Assistants, and their succes sors, fo: ever, to use, exercise, execnte•and enjoy, , vitl.ont :any stipulation as to the appropriation of revenue. arising - therefrom. King Clirles the Second, in the seventeenth rear Of his reign; did, notwithstanding, give the ballastage to Col. Carlos; but upon the representa tion of the 'Trinity-home, his Majesty re-granted it to them, with a prokision that the profits shouLi go to the poor of the Corporation; and king James the Second, tinder whose charter the pre sent. Constitution exists of thirty-one ,Elder Bre thren, ratified to them all ancient due , , profits, &c. for the better maintenance and preservation of the Corporation, without any accompt to be made or rendered; stipulating that the rises of the monies arising from fines. forfeitures, &e. shall be appropriated to charitable uses, as expressed in the said Charter ; with a protecting clause for the Corporation, manifesting the high confidence placed in them. The Corporation have thus traced, as well es they are able, the 'funds which have been appro priated toward the support of the poor who had been in their own immediate employ, and of decayed seamen, their wives and widows, which, as the trade and navigation of the country be came extended, multiplied beyond the means afforded. In the beginning of the seventh century (1607 a. 1609) the Corporation established three light houses on the east coast of England, which ang mented,,in a small degree, these resources. Not withstanding these benefits however to the Cor poration, Queen Elizabeth, granted to individuds the power of levying tolls for some light-houses, for their own immediate profit and benefit, which to this day remain in private hands; nor was it until the end of that century, and the commence ment of the eighteenth (1680 & seq ) that the Corporation were possessed of any light-houses from , which a revenue was derivable to extend the ptinciple of the charity. Having thus explained the sources of the re venue derived from the, public toward the relief of the poor, which have been greatly augmented during the last twenty years, from the influx of foreign vessels employed in the trade to this country, which paid double duties ; it will appear from the accompts laid before your Honourable Hoose; in the last Session of Parliament, what the increase has-been. and how appropriated ; but the continuance of such a revenue cannot be ex pected, because even it the trade should revive to its former extent, its being carried on in Bri tish bottoms would necessarily occasion a consi derable reduction. he mode or election of the objects, and dis trilyttion of these funds, may be shortly explained, as follows : All poor decayed merchant seamen, whereter resident, in whatever port or place in the United Kingdom, together with their wives, widows and children, are equally eligible for admission to the Trinity-Flonse Charity, heing qualified, and hav ing their Apialifications certified, according to the rules and forms of admission and petition hereto annexed. Petitions of objects,- so qualified and certified, are presented to the Board by one of the Elder Brethren, and on being examined and approved by the Board (which is certified by tk e d e p ut y master's signature On each petition), are mini• .tiered and entered by him ; as resented on every EPRIC% SEVENPI',NOR; • a hook.; thence -are. transferred to the general register of petitions, whet e • they re (Jodie, until put on one of -the :I:wittily books, to receive the regulated, pension, according to the station the party served to at sea. -The whole of the 4ndinary monthly pension ers are divided anti. distributed among eight dis tinct books, which are, for the convenience of the pour people's receiving ti' it allowances-as-near home, aid as, frequently as-may be, paid in eight distinct parishes or districts in - and near the me- , tropolis. .Each of -these eight books is under the care and soperiotendanee of tree of the Elder Bre thren, who ro Lend personally, •and pay pen. sinners residingt in and near Loodow their pews, . shins,tthe first Monday in every second month, as the following - eleces, viz • • st.•Catiteriae's, LintehOu se, Wapping, Southwark, Sha6well, Itotherhithei Itatclifre, •• • • Deptford. The vacancies as they occur in these books., by death or otherwise, are-filled up by tie two Elder Brethren -sylus pay each- )ook, who select the oh, jests • from, a list which is . k:pt, and regularly filled up, of all -petitions presented and recommended by them to .the Board, from time to time, as before mentioned, being qualified according to the afore; Said roles, and previously approved by the Opard. The objects so selected may be either residett in London, or at any out-ports or places - in the United Kingdom ; there is no distinction br limi tation in this respect. When these books were first instittited, the greater part of the pensioners (then inconsider able in 'lumber in comparison with what they are at present) were resideet in the several parishes and places where the monthly books are paid ; hut at present the greater part on each monthly book is resident at the out-ports ; but these have their pensions regularly remitted and paid to them, at their residences, twice or thrice in every year, by agents appointed for the purpose, but without any expense to the parties. Besides these eight books, there is another paid at theTrinity-House,Tower-hill, the vacancies on which are reserved, and filled up with objects re f.:ono-mewled generally by any of the elder bre thren, or persons connected with or known to the Corporation. There arc also several books, viz. the House Book for decayed pilots, their wives and widows; one for the wounded seamen and their wives, and the widows of such killed in the several great naval battles of the last war, viz. of the .4tlJune, 1794 ; St. Vincent's, the Nile, Camperdowit, Trafalgar, Copenhagen, Algiers ; also for those lost in the !St. George, Defence, Hero, &c. &c. ; for decayed prisoners of war iii France, their wives and svidows ; for decayed seamen- employed in the block-ships stationed for defence of the Thames against invasion :—Also.a casualty hook for poor fishermen or seamen, or others lost or disabled by shipWreek or accident front storms in assisting ships in distress. It is not possible the Brethren should have per- sonal.knowledge, in all cases, of the parties. They are taken up upon the testimony and re commendation of respectable characters, and ge nerally scleeted according to their age, infirmi ties, or other chcentvances that are represented by the parties recommending. There is no exclusion of -any port or place, or partiality intended toward any ; although it may be supposed the brother tnay be open to applica tions most where he is best known ; but where . any substantial ground has occurred to call for a deviation Isom these general rules, the Corpora tion: have invariably departed from them, as in the cases before mentioned of the wounded seamen in the several great naval actions of the last war, their wives and children ; the wives of prisoners of war; particular casualties by storms or accidents, &c.; and lastly, by taking sixty persons on the list at once from the port of Liverpool, on account of the representation of the distress of the sea-faring class there, and in consideration that so few had ever before applied front Ihence. These are the principles that have guided the Corporation in their adoption of pensioners genes. 1 1 rally to partake of the charity. The parties benefiting thereby, and their re spective stated monthly allowauceS; are as fol low, viz. : Masters of ships Os. per month, to them, their wires and widows, and 2s. for each child under 12 years of age. Mates - - - - 4s. 6d - ditto - ditto. Boatswains, gunners or carpenters 4s. od. - ditto = ditto. Petty 01ficeis - - - - as. Bs. - ditto - ditto. Seamen - - - as. - ditto - ditto. And at the commencement of the year, each has a bounty , of one month's additional pension, to meet the severity of the season. There are besides for the decayed masters and their wives and widows, 120 almshouses at Dept ford and Aide End, with an allOwance of two chat drons of coals',.and a suitable dress for each per.. son. The single person (whether man or wo. man) has 3Ss. per month, the married 60s. pee month ; and also an annual bounty of one month in January every year ; and as it was found that medical assistance too much exhausted this sti pend, a regular practitioner has been some time since engaged to attend the sick and infirm, and where surgical assistance is wanted, Sir kVilliam Wizard has uniformly lendered his e7<perience and talent serviceable toward their relief. There are both at Minim"! and Mile End, chapels for the pensioners, where divine service is regularly performed by chaplains appointed and paid by the Corporation, wlm, ‘‘'hen required, at tend tie pensioners at their honses. The preceding statement applies to pensions grunted to decayed mariners iu general, who have not been in ally employ tinder the Corporation ; to which way be added pilot , , and those tti ho have been butnediately in the Corporation's ser vice, consisting of ballast-tnen, wat et men, liglo licupers, and other officers and taetnbers"bt the
