tributed to the Defence of the Country :--also that a Sub-

thew Boulton, Esq.
am directed by the Committee of the Patriotic
Fund, at Lloyd's Coirze-House, to inform you, that the
Funds of that Subscription are applicable to the Relatives of
every Defender of his Country, and distributed to the Indi-
viduals who may be intitled to the same acording to circum-
stances, and will not ,preclude those who. may be relieved
froni any other Patriotic Fund.
They conceive, however, tbat as the Subscription is in-
tended to embrace one 0 bjea and one Cause, which is equally
dear to all, and extending over the whole of the [Lilted King-
doms, that it is to be desired, that partial Subscriptions
should merge in the General Fund at Lloyd's.•
