SPECIAL APPEAL.

LANCER HOSPITAL,
Nu, 1, CANNON-ROWLIA.BLIAIdENT•I3TREET, anp

vali'l3ll6i-ii-oN.

President—The Right Hon. the Earl of AIRLIE.
Treasurer—JOHN PARKINSON, Esg., 66, Lincoln' s-inn-field •
Chaplain—The Rev. NATHANIEL LIBERTY, 6, Elm-place,
Brampton.
Banker.—Mesars. COU'r II and CO., 69, Strand.
Chairman—The Hon. Colonel OGILVY, Hextable•hall, Kent.
Those in health and affluence are most respectfully informed
that there are many of their fellow-creatures languishing in
poverty unheeded, and suffering under the most painful and de-
structive malady to which the human frame is liable. This
Hospital has now been in operation nearly four years; d'2 cases
have come under treatment, and it is most gratitiyilig to an-
nounce that extensive benefits have been effected. Generous
diet, expensive medicines, and maintenance of the Charity, in
and out of London, entail heavier expenses upon the Committee
than they are able to meet, more particularly now, when the
stream of public benevolence is directed to the Patriotic Fund.
Subscriptions, therefore, are earnestly entreated, and will be re-
ceived by the above gentlemen, as also the London booksellers,
Messrs. Rivington, Hatchards, and Nisbet& By order,
W. J. COCKERILL, Secretary.
