APPEAL.
The Committee of Management have to state that, since
the beginning' of the year 1800, the Royal National Lifeboat
Institution has expended £32,000 on various Lifeboat Estab-
lishments on the Coasts of England, Scotland, and Ireland.
The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the
Society, and other means, since its formation, is 12,800;
ior' which services 82 Gold Medals, 718 Silver Medals, and
X1t3,80 i cash have en id in rewards. The Institu-
tion 4 hasn also expendebde £67p,eaoo on Life boats, Life boat
Transporting-cart lazes, and Boat-houses.
The Committee desire to express their grateful, sense of
the generous support which they have received from the
British public during the past few years, a support which
has enab'ed them to establish their present magnificent fleet
of 123 Lifeboats on the shores of the United Kingdom.
Deeply sensible, however, of the great responsibility that
rests on them to maintain their fleet in a thoroughly efficient
state, and i' s Crews practised in the management of their
boats, whi^h can only be effected by a large and permanent
annual income, they earnestly appeal to all classes of their
countrymen to aid them in upholding and perpetuating so
great and truly national a work.
