TOXTETH-PARK BOARD OF GUARDIANS

The usual weekly meeting of_ this board was' held
'yesterday, at the public offices, Park-road; Mr. H. S.
Alpass, the chairman, presiding. The other members

Joseph Wilson, J. D. Carter, W. H. Ogden, John
Wilson, HenryLayland, Joseph Harrison, Joseph Brun-
drift, J. B. Hughes, and J Grindrod.
Mr.Fouon, governor of the West Derby Workhouse,
stated that there were in that establishment, last week,
331 paupers belonging to the district of Toxteth-park,
against 323 last week. Of these 31 were in hospital.
Cheques were granted to the- relieving officers for the
relief of out-door paupersi to the amount of £95.
Mr. HEATH reported the death of a pauper, named
Rose Gurrey, who had, been in receipt of relief for the
last twelve months. He found that she was in a burial
club, and entitled to £5 at her death. There being no
relations of hers alive that he could find, he- made a
claim on the society in accordance with the act of parlia-
ment ;:but he found a man named Fairclough had made
a previous claim, on the ground of having in his posses-
sion a will made by the deceased.
The CnAinmAra then read the will as follows:

the case, and which impression I do not think the resolution
is intended to convey. At the time of my appointment my
