The Late Flood ; Meeting in Salford.

--~-- -

A meeting, convened by the Mayor of Salford (H. D
Pochin, Esq.), was held at the Salford Town Hall, yester-
day morning, to consider what steps should be taken for
the purpose of affording relief to the sufferers by the late
flood. There was a numerous attendance, a considerable
proportion of the gentlemen present beingfrom Manchester.
The Mayor, in opening the proceedings, said it was ad-
visable something should be done as speedily as possible
to relieve the sufferers by the flood. A largo number of
the inhabitants had been compelled to leave their homes,
and had been altogether without shelter, except such as
was provided by the Corporation. But further assistance
was needed, A great many of the poor people had lost
their property, and funds were required to supply them
with bedding and coals. The losses by shopkeepers and
millowners, he anticipated, could not be relieved by any
fund springing from that meeting ; but he imagined that
£ 1,500 would be sufficient to relieve the very poor:to whom
he had referred. He had had the following returns relative
to the inundation prepared by the chief constable :—Houses
inundated in Salford, 1,414; in Broughton, 1,253 ; in Pen-
dleton, 18; cellar dwellings inundated in Salford, 100; no
returns for the other districts ; shops inundated, Salford,
225 ; Broughton, 53; Pendleton, 3;. total houses, 2,685 ;
cellar dwellings, 100; shops, 281. Persons occupying inun-
dated houses in Salford, 7,070 ; in Broughton, 6,265; in
Pendleton, 90; which, with 3,000 estimated as the number
of persons occupying houses not visited, made a total of
16,425 ; persons occupying inundated collars in Salford,
500; no returns from the other districts. Manufactories
stopped front working in consequence of the inundation in
Salford, b 4; in Pendleton, 3; no returns for Broughton.
Hands thrown out of employment in Salford, 2,629 ; in
Pendleton, 495. Manufactories inundated, but not stopped,
in Salford, 7; in Broughton, 3; in Pendleton, 1. Houses
rendered unsafe in Salford, 54; in Broughton, 9; other
buildings unsafe through the inundation in Salford, 3 ; in
Broughton, 9. Mr. W. Langton proposed a resolution ex-
pressing sympathy with the sufferers, and determining on
raising subscriptions for their relief. 3lr. H. J. Leppoc se-
cosded the resolution, and said the Mayor's estimate of the
amount necessary was very inadequate to meet the case.
Mr. Alderman Cawley concurred in this opinion, and sug-
gested that the committee to be apppointed should be a
general committee to include Manchester. Mr. Alderman
Grundy, Manchester, said it was a general calamity and
there ought to be joint action. (Hear, hear.) The Mayor
said his estimate related only to the relief of those who,
without assistance, would be left in absolute poverty ; but
if they were to deal with losses of from £3O to £1,500, it
was clear the sum he had named was insignificant and in-
competent to meet the case. He should be happy to work
under the Mayor of Manchester, if that gentleman would
consent to act as chairman of the committee to be ap-
pointed. Mr. B. Armitage said the very necessitous cases
could be best relieved through the Board of Guardians.
The suggestion, however, was received with disapproba-
tion ; and Mr. Armitage said he would not press it. The
resolution was passed. Mr. J. Cheetham, M.P., moved that
that meeting should be appointed a general committee to
carry out the foregoing resolution, and said the committee
would do well to consider whether it would not be wise
to endeavour to have a portion, of the surplus of the
Lancashire Relief Fund applied to this distress. Mr.
Alderman Heywood, Manchester, seconded the motion,
which was passed. Mr. Alderman Cawley moved that
the Mayor of Manchester should be invited to co-operate
with the committee. Mr. Alderman Heywood seconded
the notion, and it was passed. The Rev. T. A. Stowell
said ministers of all denominations should bo requested to
make collections in aid of the fund; and the Rev. T. G.
Lee said all denominations ought to be represented on the
Committee. On the motion of Mr. Langton, seconded by
Mr. Alderman Pellett, it was resolved : "That the thanks
of this meeting be presented to the Mayor, for the efforts
made by hint to alleviate the distress caused by the flood ;
and that the Mayor be requested to take such further steps
as he may deem desirable until the executive committee
is in operation." Mr. Alderman Heywood was appointed
treasurer to the committee, and Mr. Alderman Davies
and the Town Clerk were appointed secretaries. Mr.
Kilkman said ho was the unfortunate proprietor and
builder of £14,000 worth of property in Broughton, where
during the last three or four years £60,000 worth of pro-
perty had been erected ; and the whole of it was now
becoming depopulated, in consequence of the inun-
dation. If it was put up for what it would bring,
its value would not be equivalent to the chief rent which
would be shortly owing to the lord of the manor. It was
important to consider what could be done to prevent so
widespread an inundation occurring again. A second inun-
dation had almost occurred on Sunday morning, owing to
the bank in Hough-lane not having been repaired. The
Mayor said the bank was not seriously damaged until Sa-
turday. The question of rendering the inundations less
destructive was a very important one, and would receive
the best attention of the corporation.—Mr. Ald. Cawley
said the matter should have his best attention; but he must
remind some of the builders of Broughton that they had
built houses at a level which the experience of former
floods should have induced them to avoid. Subscriptions
were announced amounting to £650, and additional sums
amounting to £240 were guaranteed. A vote of thanks to
the Mayor for presiding concluded the proceedings.
