ROYAL NAVAL BENEVOLENT

SOCIETY.

A Quarterly Meeting of this Society, instituted in the
year 1739, for affording relief to officers of the Royal
Navy, their widows, and families under circumstances of
misfortune and consequent distress, was held yesterday,
y.t the Thatched House Tavern, at twelve o'clock.
The Chair was taken by Captain Sir Charles
Ogle, R.N.

There was a very numerous attendance of members
on the occasion. Among the gentlemen present we ob-
served Lord Radstock, Sir H. Baker, Bart.; Sir Edward
Codrington, Captain Dickenson, Lieut. W. Bedford,
Captain Bradshaw, Captain Drew, Captain Larcom,
Commander Payne, Captain Kelly, &c.
The Secretary, Mr. Dickson, proceeded to read over
the minutes of the last quarterly meeting of the Society.
Letters were also read from the Earl of Haddington,
Vice-Admiral Sir J. A. Ommanny, Captain A. B.
Beecher, and Cap. F. A. Schaw.

From the report of the Society's accounts it appeared
that the total amount of monies received by the Society,
since Jan. 13, to March 31, amounted to the sum of
1,1361. 10s. 2d. Of this sum there had been received
from

Life Subscription £2s 0 0
Annual Ditto 442 18 6
Donations l6l 19 6

Interest on invested property 506 12 2
The expenditure of the Society during the above period
had been on account of grants voted at the last quarterly
meeting, 4321. The other expenses, including rent,
printing, stationery, investigation charges, and other in-
cidental expenses, the sum of 2321. 18s. 7d.
The thanks of the Society were voted to the auditors
of last ycar, and fresh ones were elected for the en-
suing year. _ _ _

A Sub-Committee was appointed for the purpose of
examining the memorials of applicants.
The meeting was addressed by Sir Edward Codring-
ton, Captain Bague, and Commander Payne.
A long discussion took place upon the subject of Miss
Hoare's application. It appeared that at the last quar-
terly meeting of the Society it was resolved that no
further relief should be afforded to her. In consequence
of that resolution she had published what she had termed
a manifesto of her grievance, and had, to a very large
extent directed public attention to the Institution in
question. The present discussion arose upon the ques-
tion of re-affirming the decision of last quarter.
It was at length moved by Captain DaEw, seconded
by Admiral M.INLoN, and carried unanimously—" That
any further relief granted to Miss Hoare from the funds
of this Society would be injurious to its interest, and
contrary to the pledge given in the address to the pub-
lic, which states is would exclude the undeserving from
participation in its benefits."
The Committee then proceeded to inquire into and
decide upon the merits of the applications made to the
Society. The number of memorials presented was 36,
and the sum proposed for voting was 4801.
The cases having been disposed of, and grants of
money to the amount of 5131. (being 331. over the sum
originally proposed) having been voted to the various;
applicants, a vote of thanks was given to the Chairman,
and the Committee rose at five o'clock.
