faithful addresses have been given.
During the present year the Meetings have been held nearly
every week in some of the most frequented districts of the
metropolis.
The promoters have abundant evidence that these effts
or have
been most successful in effecting a great moral change in many
fallen ones.
To enable them to continue their important work, FUNDS ass
earnestly solicited, and will be thankfully received by Mr. John
Stabb, Hon. Sen., 6, Red Lion-square, W.C., London ; and at the
Union Bank of London (Carey-street Branch), W.C.
