from Mr. Alderman Thompson, M.P. :

"'To 11. F. Richardson, Esq.

• " Thames-street, April, 18, 1846'
It was then moved by FREDERICK Salmon", Esq., seconded by
TnomAs James SEBLE, Esq., and unanimously carried,
"That, in the opinion of this Meeting, the Bill purporting to be
An. Act for securing the due administration of Charitable Trusts in
England and Wales,' is unnecessary and impolitic, likely to be
vexatious and distressing in its operation, and will tend to the injury
of all, and the annihilation of some, of those public and private phi-
lanthropic Institutions hitherto alike the honour and pride of the
British nation." .

It was resolved unanimously—
" That petitions be presented from the Governors of the City of
London General Fension Society, praying the Legislature to reject
the Bill intituled An Act for securing the due administration of
Charitable Trusts in England and Wales,' and that the preparation
and presentment of such petitions be confided to the Board of Directors
of the Institution.
"That the best thanks of this Meeting be presented to Mr. Sheriff
Laurie, for his able conduct in the chair this day, and for his en-
lightened benevolence towards this and the numerous charitable In-
stitutions of the City of London."
HENRY F. RICHARDSON, Secretary.
