In appealing to their fellow-citizens, the Committee are im-
pelled by a deep conviction that the Volunteer Forces generally
have not received that support to which they are entitled. The
five regiments specially belonging to the City, numbering over
3,500 men, are now without the advantages which have been
afforded by most of the great towns 'of the kingdom. The
Volunteers have devoted their time, and largely contributed out
of,their means,, to the exceptionally heavy charges incident to
City Corps, but which now press very severely. The Committee
therefore desire to provide for the City Regiments a good Rifle
Range, Drill Ground, and suitable Headquarters and Armouries,
of which they are entirely destitute. The Committee appeal
with confidence to the patriotism and liberality of the Citizens
of London thus to ensure the permanence and efficiency of its
contingent to the Reserved Forces of the kingdom.
