necessary

At the time when the present Building was erected, no main
sewers existed in the neighbourhood—these have been a work of
comparatively recent date ; but, having been completed, the
operation of the "Liverpool Sanitary Act" rendered it compulsory
upon the Committee to drain the whole of the extensive premises
under their charge.

After much consideration they resolved to enter at the same
time upon certain Alterations and Repairs, the necessity for
which had been apparent for years, and which, it was manifest,
could be carried out with greater convenience, and at a less cost
to the Charity, simultaneously with the Drainage, than if deferred
to a future period.
These works, the execution of which has been spread over the
last four years, have at length been brought to completion ; and,
although the cost they have entailed has exceeded what the
Committee at first had it in contemplation to expend, yet they
have the satisfaction of knowing that the town now possesses an
Institution that is not excelled in its arrangements and appoint-
ments by any other of its kind in the country.
When the high Price of all Articles of Consumption during the
greater portion of that time is also taken into account, it will not
excite surprise to know that the sum of £6,000 is required in
order that the Charity may be perfectly free from debt, of which
it must be borne in mind that fully £4,500 has been incurred on
the Buildings alone ; and it is to raise this amount that the Com-
mitte Appeal with confidence to the proverbial liberality of the
Liverpool public in supporting their Charitable Institutions, to
provide the means for extinguishing the Debt that at present
atands against the Charity.

Contributions for this object will be thankfully received by any
Member of the Committee, or by the undersigned,
EDWARD GIBBON, Chairman.
ROBERT HUTCHISON, Treasurer.
