SUBSCRIPTIONS
for the WIDOW Thiid
CHILDREN of the late Captain R. H. GRONOW,
formerly of the Grenadier Guards, and Author cf " Recol-
lections and Anecdotes," " Celebrities of London and
Paris," Sm. Captain Gronow, who lately died in Paris,
has left a widow and four young children, by his second
marriage utterly destitute, without means to defray his
funeral expenses, or even to purchase bread. Captain
Gronow was disinherited by his father, in favour of
his brother, a clergyman, and the small income which
he derived from the interest of a sum charged on the family
estate ceased with his life • while the sums he received
from time to time for his " Recollections" were expended
in providing for the increasing expenses of his young
family. Under these distressing circumstances the friends
of Madame Gronow in Paris came to her aid, and they now
appeal to the liberality of her late husband's friends in
London, and also to the readers of his Reminiscences, for
contributions to enable her to maintain and educate her
children.
Subscriptions received by Messrs. SMITH, ELDER, and
Co., 65, Cornhill, and 45, Pall-mall ; and by Messrs. Cox
and GREENWOOD, Army Agents, Craig's-court, Parliament-
street.
