CoNckRNING CHARITIES. •

by a Olneunission under the Great
- day of Motet in the Arm year of your
Majesty's Tilsit, to inquire concerning Charities in Ragland and
Wales, do further report,
That they have proceeded with the inquiries intrusted
to them, and that the result of such investigations as they
have been enabled to complete since the presentation of
their last Report will be found in the ensuing pages :
PARISH OF ST. MARTIN VINTRY.
VELLOWES'S CHARITY.
By indenture of demise, dated letb November, 1720, made
betwee2 William &Rime', Esq. and Sir Jobs Fellowes, executors
of the wIl of Thomas Coulson, of the one part, and Sir John Ryles,
Bart. and eleven others. of the other part, eciting, that Henry
Ilaylin, Esq. had, for the consideration of £5OO, by indenture of
bargain and sale, dated Tth March, 1622, granted to the said
Thomas Coulson and his heirs, to the use of him and his heirs, two
me‘sttages and tenements, with the appurtenances, situate on the
west side of Nicholas-lane, in the parish of St. Nicholas Aeons,
London • and also reciting, that Thomas Coulson, by Ms will, dated
11th 0c;.1697, had devised all the residue of his real and personal
.tars to the said William Fellowes and Sir John Fellowes, and

their heirs , and further reciting, that at a vestry held for the
united parishes of St. Michael Royal, and St. Martin Vintry, in
1712, it had been agreed by the then Rector of the said parishes,
with the approbation of the churchwardens and principal pa-
rishioners thereof, that the said William Fellows.. and Sir John
Fellowes should have liberty to build a vault on the north side of
the chancel of the church of St. Michael Royal, to be a place of
burial for themselves and their families • and that the said William
Fellowes and Sir John Fellowes, at their own costs, had caused a
vault to be built in the chancel of the said church, in which vault
the said Thomas Coulson had been since interred : It was witnessed,
that in pursuance of an agreement made some time after the death
of the said Thomas Coulson with Montague Wood, the then Rec-
tor, and the parishioners of the said united parishes, and in honour
of the memory of the said Thomas Coulson, and to the intent that
the said vault might always thereafter be appropriated by the said
William Fellowes and Sir John Fellows,, their heirs, &c. as a place

of burial for themselves and their families, freed and discharged
from the payment of all duties and fees of burial in the said vault,
except such as were thereinafter mentioned, they, the said William
Fellowes aid Sir Jobn Feilowes, demised unto the said Sir John

Ryles and others their executors, &c. the aforesaid two messuages
or tenements is ;he said parish of St. Nicholas Aeons, with the ap-
purtenances to hold to them, their executors, &c. from the

Christmas ensuing the date of the said indenture, fur 1,000 years,
at the yearly rent of 65.8 d. payable at Michaelmas. And it was
by the said indenture declared, that the said demise was upon trust,
that they the said Sir John Ryles and others should in the fire
place, out of the rents and profits of the said premises, pay to the
said Montague Wood, and his successors. Rectors of the said
united parishes, the clear yearly suns of £5, by two half-yearly
payments; and on further trust, that they should dispose of tbe re-
sidue of the rents and profits of the said premises towards placing
out and apprenticing such and so many poor children, male and
female. born within the said parish of St. Martin Vintry, to such
honest trades and employments as the said Sir John Eyles and
others, or the majority of them, should think fit ; and it was pro-
vided, that the money paid on apprenticing any one such poor child
should not exceed the sum of 210, with a proviso, that so often as
the trustees should be reduced to the number of five, the survivors
should assign the term to so many other persons, officers or inha-
bitants of the said ward and united parishes, as, with the surviving
trustees, should make up the number of eleven persona, of which
number the Alderman and Deputy Alderman of the said Ward of
Vintry, and the Rector of the said parishes for the time being,
should always be three.
The above statement is taken from a recital in a trust deed,
bearing date 14th March, 1775. The last trust deed bears date
the 20th October, 1820. and at the time of our inquiry there were
twelve Trustees living, including the Rector of the united parishes
an.i the Deputy Alderman of the Ward of Vintry.
The trust property at present consists of a warehouse,which was
built about forty years ago upon the site of the houses above men-
tioned, and is now in the occupation of Sophia Hackett Crank,
under a repairing lease for 21 years from Midsummer, 1819, at a
gond rent of £65 per annum. Mr. Crank, uncle of the present
tenant, was the lessee, under a building lease for 42 years, which
expired at Michaelmas, 1818. at the rent of 212 per annum. The
present lease was made in pursuance of an agreement with him,
a the highest bidder, at a Meeting held by the Trustees, of which
public notice was previously given by Advertisement in the News-
r vers.
'l'he premises being in very bad repair, one of the Trustees,
who Is by profession a builder, was appointed at a meeting of the
Trustees to survey the premises, report their state, and to give
notice to Mts. Crank of the repairs required to be done. The
survey was accordingly made. and notice given, and the repairs
have been commenced by Messrs. Babington and Co. who are
under tenants of bits. Crank.
The sum of 25 a year has been regularly paid to the Rector
of the two parishes, and the residue of the rent has been applied
In occasionally apprenticing poor children of the parish of St.
Martin Vintry, except that the sum of sel was annually paid
out of it from the year 1812 to 1816 inclusive, to the Vestry-
clerk, who is stated to have received the rents, and kept the ac-
counts for a former Treasurer of the Charity. The premium al-
lowed was formerly £5, but the Trustees have lately, in some
instances, increased it to 210.

The cumber of apprentices placed out during the last eight
years has been nineteen; there is now (July, 1848), a balance in
favour of the Charity of £416 7.. The balance is in the bands
of Mr. Thomas Whitby, Deputy Alderman and Trustee of the
Charity, at Interco. at five per cent. and that Gentleman has
kept an account of the sums received by him, and the sums dis-
posed of towards apprenticing.
We think it our duty to recommend that the balance should
be invested in the Public Fund., in the names of some of the
Trustee., and that the dividends should be applied for the pur-
pose of apprenticing.
The annual rent of 6s. Bd. has not been paid to the grantors of
the lease for many years, no demand having been made of it.
MUST TRRYILIAN'II CHARITY.

It will be seen on reference to our Statement of the Charities
belonging to the Dyers' Company, that Henry Trevilian, by will,
bearing date the 24th of September, 1636, gave to that Company
4100, to be disposed of to the best advantage ; and directed that
out of the benefit of the said 4100. 44 should be applied every
other year to buy eight gowns of 105. price a-piece, to be given by
the Master and Wardens of the Company to four men and four
poor women of the parish of St. Martin Vintry, that should he of
the age of 50 years at the least, or otherwise lame or impotent, on
the 2d February, every second year, for ever.
The Master and Wardens of the Company do not bestow the
gowns in the specific manner directed, but every other year 44
is paid by the Company, which is expected In the purchase of
gowns given to poor widows, expended by the Churchwardens.
The distribution of this Charity has been for many years confined
to women.
roux SZYDOII S CNAIUTT.
It will be seen, on reference to our account of the Charities
nder the management of the Merchant's Company that John
Illydon, amongst other charitable bequests, gave to the Company,
an% to be lent to six young men ut the Company, at interest,
amounting in the whole to 410 per annum, of which 43 per
annum was to be applied to the poor of St. Martin Vintry ; and
that that sum, together with 42 6s. 7d., being the dividend on
477 14s. Td. Old South Sea Annuities, which had been invested
by the Company In respect of arrests due from it to this parish
on account of this benefaction, and another of 416 Ad. a year,
given to Martin Barrett to this parish, as hereinafter next men-
tioned, is annually paid to the parish.
The entire sem of 45 Is. 7d. is annually received from the
Company, and is carried to an account including the distribution
of bread, clothes, and money. to the poor.
MARTHA BAIIIIITT'S CHAIM.

It will • be seen also, on reference to our account of the Cha-
rities connected with the M ' Company, that Martha Barrett,
by will, bearing date 25th September, 1534, gave to the said
Company, 41.100. to be lent to youag men thereof, at the interest
Of ik3 6s. ed. of which the sum of 16s. id. was to be paid to the
poor of St. Martha Vintry.
This sum is annually paid by the Mercers' Company, and la
curled to the above mentioned account.
HOMY slurries QUAILIIT.
It appears front an entry in a Court-book of the Company of
Stationers, bearing date the 4th December, 1604, that the Com-
pany received a legacy of £52 fruni the executor of Henry Billage,
in respect of which they were to pay yearly to the Churchwardens
and Overseers of St. Martin's Vintry 525. the same to he distri-
buted by 12d. every week, in bread, to the poor and needy of the
said parish. It further appears by an entry in another WO of the
Company, dated 7th February, 1673, that a sum due fur Ave
yeah attars of the said Sta. per annum was ordered to he paid to
the parish, and that it was also ordered that the Cupipauy gatauld
be obliosi by writing for the flue payment of the said annuity in
future.
It does not appear that any such obliptiop is now in the pos.,
session of the parish,. but the sum of sea. is annually paid by the;
Company, and is sytriyd to the Chose mentioned acc. ant,
which a weekly distributionsof bread is Dade. • out of

This sum Is regularly received at Midsummer from the Coopers'
Company, and is carried to the general account.
maw ANTAS.II DONATION.

Arnoqgst the Charities recorded on the tablet above-men-
tipued, it is stated that Susan Amyas gave, in the year 1650, .C 5
per &Daum, for ever, to the poor of this parish, to be paid by
tip trustees of ber almshouses in Old-street, in the parish of
St. Luke. •
This pmn is received annually by the Churchwardens from one
of the trustees of Amyas's almshouses, and is carried to the
general account.

PICT= THOMIGAeII CUT.

It is stated in she returns made to Parliament in 17t6, that
Peter Tbomegay gave, by will, the date of which is not men-
tioned, Z5O South Sea Annuities to the poor of this parish, then
vested in the East India Company, and producing 50s. per

duced, and the sum of ASO stock now stands in that fund, in the
names of Mr. Thomas Whitby and Mr. Joseph Proud, the di-
vidends of which are carried to the general account.
SAND'S CHAIM.
John Rand, by his will, dated 27th of August, 1706, and
proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury, gave to the church-
wardens and overseers of the poor belonging to the parish of St.
Martin Vintry, London, and their successors, for ever, for the use
of the poor of the said parish, a rent-charge of 285. per annum, for
ever, issuing and payable out of a large mesauage or tenement
called Fishermen's Hall, situate in Thames.street, London, and
directed that the said churchwardens and overseers, and their suc-
cessors, should lay out the said rent charge in buying of bread, and
on every Sunday. fur ever, divide and distribute the said bread
amongst the poor of the said parish of St. Martin Vintry, Leaden,
not exceeding one penny loaf a piece.
The tenement called Fishermen's Hall is supposed to have been
taken down a great many years ago, and a warehouse, formerly
used by a sugar.baker, was bulk upon its site, being No, 78, Upper
Thames-street.
The firm of Clemetson and Robinson are the present occupiers
of this warehouse and premises, and Knowlys, Esq. is the
owner of the inheritance.
In consequence of the rent-charge having been unpaid fur many
years, application was made to Newman Knowlys, Esq. a trustee
for the proprietor, who was then a minor, and it was agreed be
tweets him and the parishioners, that the arrears of the annuity for
six years should be paid. The sum of £8 Ss. was accordingly
paid by Mr. Knowlys, as due at Lady-day, 1828, and was carried
to the general account of the present year.
)lAIGACIT DAME'S CHAZITY.
The particulars of this Charity, in respect of which the sums of
7s. 6d. per annum is received from the Ironmongers Company
are detailed in the Tenth Report. This small sum is carried to the
general account.
The following distributions are made in respect of the eight last-
mentioned charities; fifteen two-penny loaves, the cost of which
is 61. 10s. per annum, are given every Sunday to as many poor
people as apply, their number usually varying from five to eight.
A sum, generally amounting to 51. is also given at Christmas,
together with a share of the King's bounty-money which for the
last ten or twelve years has been 51. per annum • and a sum vary.
ing from 31. to 41. is bestowed on the poor at Baiter.
Of the money thus given, that denominated the King's Bounty
is given to poor housekeepers residing in the parish, but the red.
due is distributed among those who receive parochial relief.
The last-mentioned distributions are made on Christmas-eve,
or the day preceding, and in Easter-week, and all applicants be
longing to the parish receive either more or less in proportion to
their wants, and the numbers of their families. It is stated that
upon these occasions the distributions, including the sum expended
in bread, always sacred the money received on account of the re-
spective Charities, and that the surplus beyond such receipt is paid
out of the panes rate.
The Vestry-clerk and the Churchwardens enter in the minute
book of the vestry an account of the sums distributed at Christ-
mas and Easter; and the sum paid for the Sunday-bread is
brought into the Churchwardens account, a general statement of
which, including the receipt and expenditure of all the Charities,
except Fellowes's, is printed annually, and distributed to every
payer of rates in the parish, but we think it desirable that a book
should be provided, in which a statement of the money received
and applied in respect of the various Charities should be kept dis-
tinct from those in which the parochial accounts of the Church-
wardens and Overseers are entered.
DS. HOMPIIIIM HOOT'S CRAILITT.
Dr. Hedy, by Will, dated 9th November, 1706, gave to the
united pariahs., of St. Michael Royal, and St. Martin Vintry ,8100
for apprenticing poor children ; and for the ordinary vhisor of that
his charity he nominated the Archbishop of Canterbury for the
time being. The charity therefore being thus placed under the
superintendence of a special visitor, we have abstained from any
further inquiry relating to it.
DUMFRIES, Oct. 13.

Betwixt five and six o'clock ou the morning of Thurs-
day last, smoke was seen issuing from the two-story tenement, si-
tuated in Loch:labels-gate, opposite to Queen-street, and occupied
by Mr. Dawson, auctioneer, and below, as shops, by Mr. Robert-
son, grocer, and Mr. Dryden, flax-dresser. The alarm was soon
given, and shortly after six, the engines were brought to the spot
and commenced working ; and before the lapse of many minutes,
the flames reached the slates, and after melting the glass, blazed
most fearfully through the windows, so much so tbat the strongest
fears were entertained for the safety of .the surrounding buildings,
not excepting those on the opposite aide. Betwixt seven and eight
o'clock the flames became weaker, the effect of the engines more
apparent, though the water that supplied them had to be brought
from the Nitis, and the pipes, in tome instances, were found too
short for the purposes required. Before nine o'clock, when the
streets were cleared, the danger was over, though not until Mr.
Dawson's house, and the premises adjoining,bad become a moulder-
ing mass of ruins.
CORONER'S IN UEST.

Yesterday morning at ten o'clock an Inquest was taken
at the surgeons-room of the London Hospital, before Jose Us-
wim, Esq. on view of the remains of Andrew Kirwan, who died in
that institution on Wednesday morning. The reason for instituting
the inquiry at so unusually early an hour was in order to guard
aginst the threatened attack of an infuriated mob, who had anent-
bled and continued immovable outside the hospital during the en-
tire of the previous night, vowing destruction to the building and
vengeance on its inmates unless the body of the deceased was im-
mediately delivered up to them. The cause assigned for these
violent demonstrations is as follows :
The deceased, it appears, was an Irishman, and an impression
having gone abroad among his countrymen, that it was the stand-
ing practice of the London Hospital to open and anatomize such
Patients as died within its walls,—an operation to which they had
a great antipathy,—they determined to preserve the corpse of their
friend from such mutilation ; and for that purpose congregated in
large bodies, and vociferously demanded its delivery. This was of
course refused, the coroner's jury not having returned their ver-
dict; and a riot and disturbance, the consequence of which might
have been moat disastrous, was just on the eve of commenting
when Mr. Miller, the principal officer et Lambeth-street, and Mr.
Almereth, the chief constable of Whitechapel, fortunately arrived
on the spot, and by argument, and giving a pledge that the body
should remain uninjured, they pacified their irritation. Though
they succeeded thus far, they were unable to prevail on them to
disperse, and they continued to assemble in the Mile-end-toad until
the warrant was issued for placing the corpse in their head..
The ease itself was one of ordinary occurrence. The deceased
was passing along Rucliffe-cross, when he was knocked down by
a horse, and his side coming in contact with the kirb stone, five of
his ribs were broken. He was removed to the hospital for assist-
ance; but the injuries he received were so serious, that death was
the cuasequence Verdict—" Accidental death."
