now being made by this Institution to save the lives of Ship-
'wrecked Crews. Their help was never more needed than at
lhe present time, when, through the extraordinary exertions
the Society has made within the past few years, it has now
One Hundred and Fifteen Life-boats under its manafTment,
tor the maintenance of which, in a state df thorough efficiency.
a large permanent annual income is absolutely needed, if its
Immune mission is to be perpetuated.
