OLIN THOROGOOD has been confined in
the Common Gaol of Chelmsford since the 16th of
January last, for not paying a Church. rate of ss. 6d.
In consequence of his long confinement, his business has re-
ceived so much injury, that his friends propose a public sub-
scrip ion, for the purpose of saving his affairs from utter ruin,
and as a testimony to him and to the country that they sy mpa-
,bize in his sufferings, and honour the principle of religious
liberty, which is violated in his person.

Treasui er, Clapham Common, and on his account at Messrs.
Rop.ers aid Co., bankers, z 9, Clemem's-lane ; to Mr. Robert

It will be obvious to the Provincial Press, that it is impos-
sible to send Advertisements beyond the Metropolis ; but the
promoters of this Subscription confidently rely upon its sym-
pathy to make the case known, and that it will urge persons
throughout the country to undertake the trouble of conducting
Local Subscriptions, and sending the lists and amounts to any
of the above parties.
