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 ••f life at sea, and to enable them
even' ually to obtain premises more commensurate with the
necessities of this great maritime country, which loses 2,000
saqors annually by casualties alone, without including those
who may. perish by war.
Subscriptions th thkfully received by the bankers, Messrs.
Barclay, Bevan, and Co., Lombard-street, and by the Secre-
tary, at the Offices, No. 77, Curuhill.
