2. Moved by Cuaurrorritat BUSHELL, Esq.: seconded by
CHARLES LANGTON, Esq. :
That although the Turkish Government may, under the spe-
cial circumstances of the ease, be willing to make eventual
provision for the relief of its suffering subjects, yet, that in
the opinion of this Meeting, the urgency of immediate need
overleaps all questions of distance and technical obligation,
and demands the administration of present help as a simple
dictate of human conscience.

A PPEAL FOR FUNDS 70 COMPLETE ST.
MARY'S CHURCH, WAVERTREE.
1:11,
After long continued efforts had been made with a view to
providing an additional Church in WaYertree, and considerable
difficulties in the way of such object had been overcome, the
first stone of the above Church was laid by the Rev. Augustus
Campbell, Rector of Liverpool, and Vicar of Childwall,' on
Monday, the 15th of April, 1850. • .
The pecuniary means, up to that period procured, having
been found inadequate for the building of the whole of the
church, it was suggested. and in consequence resolvireded,
for to
uth A
build so much of the sacred edifice as should be requ
immediate accommodation, namely the Nave, Soisle, and
Porch ; and then, as funds could 'be obtained, to proceed with
the other portions as set forth in the specification and accord-
ing to the plans—that is to say, thaChancr.l.t-isic*-and
the Tower and Spire.
The Church, in its present state, was the result of the fore-
going suggestion and determination, and through the blessing
of God on the undertaking it was opened for Divine Service.
under the licence of the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, on Sun-
day, the 29th of February, 1852.
At that time there was a heavy debt on the Church, which
proved an obstacle to its being consecrated; but by perse-
vering exertions, during three years, that debt was discharged,
and the Consecration took place on the 7th day of Mayln,
clum-
,
855
when the Rev. Samuel Fenton, M.A.. was appointed
bent; and shortly afterwards a separate district was assigned
to it by an order of her Majesty in Council.
So many years having elapsed without any further progress
in the design as originally contemplated, there is a general
feeling that the church should no longer be allowed to remain
in its unfinished condition, but that renewed efforts should be
made with a view to its completion, for
beeeffcting which
there
the
sum of £2,550 will be required ; and it is to hope
will not be wanting persons willing to contribute mewls in
order to perfect a temple dedicated to Almighty God, andti thus
afford accommodation for the rapidly increasing population of
the district, and add an ornament and an attractive object to
the currounding neighbourhood.
For the purpose of carrying intp immediate effect the above
most desirable work, the following gentlemen have censented
to act as a committee, with power to adrl to their number.
