In consequence of the total destruction of this theatre, with
all the properties, scenery, dresses, and effects, upwards of 300

gaining a subsistence, besides having sustained the loss of all
their property in the theatre. The assistance of a benevolent
public is earnestly and anxiously solicited in behalf of these
poor sufferers and their families during their present state of
~evere distress. A Committee has been formed to secure the
judicious distribution of the funds which may be raised.
The following bankers have kindly consented to receive
subscriptions—Messrs. Coutts and Co. ; Messrs. Glyn and
Co. ; Messrs. Drummonds ; Sir Claude Scott, Bart. ; and
Messes. Western and Young ; and subscriptions will also be
most thankfully received by William Withall, Esq., 7, Parlia-
ment-street; by Wilkinson and Cobbold, 5, Chancery-lane;
and by the Committee, who sit daily at the Treasury-office of
the late theatre, 18, Stangate-street, Lambeth.
