!‘n fof the foreigner, the stranger, the friendless, and the outcast,
when in sickness or disease, who are here received so far as the
Insane of the InNtitution will permit.
_ Neither patronage nor letters of recommendation are necessary ;
"ere It otherwise, the wretched beiags for whose benefit the Institu•

seeking for the means of admission would, in all probability,
perish unheeded and unknown ; is melancholy instance of which
end gave rise to the founding of this charity.
as_.'!' large debt, which is now gradually being reduced, still encurn-
",4-3 the operations of the Committee, but confiding in the spirit
1d benevolence of an English public, in support of such a
charity, they fearlessly continue their efforts to meet the urgent
'l3seills daily made at their gates by the most miserable and wretched
Or the hutian race.
