This Institution is designed to supply a great national
want, viz., an asylum for the orphan daughters of sailors in
the Royal Navy and Merchants Service and of Marines.
It clothes, maintains, and educates them for domestic
service, and provides a home free of expense for former
inmates while out of situations, thus shielding them from the
temptations they might otherwise be exposed to.
The Committee earnestly APPEAL for CONTRIBU-
TIONS to meet the increasing applications through the
recent storms and loss cf life at sea, and to enable them
eventually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
siolors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may perish by war.
Subscriptions thankfully received by the bankers, Messrs.
Barclay, Bevan, and Co., Lombard-street, and by the Secre-
tary, at the Offices, No. 77, Curnhill.

" Henry, Lord Brougham and Vaux, make oath and
say that when I made my affidavit in the above matter on
the 27th March last I knew nothing of the specific charges
made against me or against any member of my family by
the said Edmunds, nor did I know that the committee ap-
pointed to investigate the above matters intended to pursue
their inquiries beyond the circumstances of the said Ed-
munds's original appointment as Clerk of the Patents, and to
travel into the private concerns of my family, and among
others into the circumstances of a mortgage debt alleged to
have been incurred by me in 1811, more than half a century
ago. Now I make oath and say, that I made over the pre-
mises so mortgaged, and which are known by the name of
the Howes Farm, which forms no part of the Brougham
estate, to my late brother, James Brougham, in the year
1810. That from that time no part of the rents has ever been
received by me or by any person on my account or for my
benefit. That my said brother James was put into possession
of the said premises in 1810, and continued to be sole bene-
ficial owner thereof until his death in Dec., 1833. That
from his death until the present time the whole rents of the
said premises have by my direction been applied towards
the payment of his debts and liabilities. That the money
borrowed in 1811 on the security of the said premises was
borrowed by my said brother James solely for his own use,
and was wholly received and wholly enjoyed by him. That
the legal estate in the said premises being still in me, I was
a necessary party to the said mortgage deed, which I executed
in 1811, and which I have never seen from that day to this, nor
heard of till Oct. last. That I have been informed there was
some transfer of the said mortgage in 1827, but I say that
I was never told of any such transaction at the time, that
I never received nor dealt with any part of the money, and
that I never executed any such transfer. And I further
say that no claim has ever been made to my knowledge for
interest upon any such debt, and that I did not know and
did not believe that at the time of my said brother's death
in 1833 such mortgage still existed, and therefore that I,
froth my brother's death until the present time, directed all
the rents of the saidpremises to be applied in relief of diffe-
rent liabilities affecting my said brother's estates. That the
first time I heard of any claim was in a letter from James
Leman, solicitor of the said Edmunds, some time in Octo-
ber last, in which he stated that the said Edmunds's funds
were exhausted, and that he had nothing left but a mort-
gage " upon the Brougham property," or words to that
effect. And I further say that, well knowing there was no
such mortgage upon the Brougham property, I directed my
brother William Brougham to write to the saidLeman that
" I knew of no such debt and that I owed no such sura.,
That late in the same month of October the mortgage deed
of 1811 upon the said Howes Farm was found, as I have
bowl informed, in the muniment room at Brougham; but I
was not there, and I never saw, and never since have seen
the said deed. And I further say that after I had left Eng-
land I was informed that the question of the validity of the
said mortgage was to be referred to Lord Cranworth. And
I further say I have been informed, and believe, that the
said Edmunds has stated upon oath that I was kept inigno-
ranee of such reference. Now, I say that such statement
is absolutely false, for I was not only informed of such in-
tended reference at the time, but I afterwards sent to the
said Lord Cranworth, in December last, from Cannes, a
paper signed by me, in which I stated that I submitted in
all respects to his arbitration and award. And I further
say that acting under the firm conviction and belief that I
owed no such debt, and that the claim So made against me
by the said Leman on behalf of the said Edmunds in respect
of a debt of £5,000 alleged to be secured on the Brougham
property was, as regarded me, an unjust claim, I directed
my said brother William to resist and oppose the same by
every means in his power, and to urge upon the said Lord
Cranworth that, inasmuch as no interest had ever been de-
manded of or paid by me, or by my order, or with my
knowledge, privity, or consent, in respect of any such debt,
that such liability, if it ever existed, ought not now to be
pressed against me, and I believe that my said brother did
accordingly resist such claim on my behalf. And I further
say that if, as I have been informed and believe, my said
brother ever offered to take upon himself such debt, such
offer was purely voluntary on his part, and, having been
made without my knowledge or consent, could in no way
render me liable for any such debt. And I further say that
the said premises are now liable to the claims of certain
creditors of my said brother James to an amount largely
exceeding the value thereof, so that if said claim for £5,000
were extinguished by the money which I am informed and
believe is secured on the said Edmunds's death by a policy
for £3,000, or inany other manner, the said premises would
become at once available to satisfy the claims of the said
creditors, but would confer no benefitupon me, or upon any
member of my family. And I further say that neither I nor
any existing member of my family have ever benefited, or
ever can, under any possible circumstances, benefit, by
any payments that have ever been made by the said Ed-
munds, in respect of the said debt, or otherwise. And I
further say I have been informed and believe that the said
Edmunds has stated upon oath that Alfred Montgomery, a
Commissioner of the Board of Inland Revenue, told him
that I had said to him, the said Montgomery, that I had
given him, the said Edmunds, the said Patent-office, on the
understanding that the proceeds were to be applied for the
benefit of his brothers and sisters. Now, I say that such
statement, whether made by the said Edmunds or by the
said Montgomery, is false ; for I say that I did not give
the said Edmunds the said Patent-office upon the under-
standing that it was to be for the benefit of his brothers
and sisters, or upon or coupled with that or with any other
condition or understanding whatever ; and I further say
that I never said either to the said Montgomery, or to any
other person, that I had so given the said office, and I say
that such statement is altogether untrue, whether made by
the said Montgomery—but which I entirely disbelieve—or
invented by the said Edmunds. And I further say—that
when the said Patent-office became vacant, by the death
of William Henry Scott, I had full power and absolute right
to have given it to any member of my own family, as Lord
Northington and as Lord Eldon had done, the former to
his daughter in her marriage settlement, the latter to his
son, William Henry Scott; and that if I had followed the
example of my predecessors in office, some member of my
family would have enjoyed for his life a sinecure of nearly
£4,000 a year; but, so far from having the desire to unduly
enrich my family at the expense of the public, I voluntarily
abolished the said sinecure, replacing it by the said office
of £4OO a year, which I gave to the said Edmunds. And,
lastly, I say, that from November, 1830, to November, 1834,f
the said Edmunds enjoyed by my gift the twoooffi s 0
Pursebearer and Beeretary to the Commissions the
Peace, and that such offices, while I held the Great Seal,
were paid by fees, and averaged together a sum exceeding
£l,lOO a year, although they were afterwards, as I believe
in Lord Cottenh 's time, reduoed in amount and paid by
faxed annual sums. And I further say that when the said
