Liverpool, 6th Jan., 1846.

A T a MEETING of the OWNERS of PROPERTY
41L and RATE-PAYERS of the Township of Tranmere, in the
County of Chester, convened by the Overseers of the Poor of
the said Township, in pursuance of a Requisition numerously
signed by the Owners of Property and Rate-Payers, held at the
QUEEN'S ARMS, on FRIDAY, the 9th day of January, 1846, at
Ten o'clock in the Forenoon.
It was moved by W. W. PERRY, Esq., seconded by GEORGE
LAW, Esq., and carried unanimously,
That JAMES ABRAHAM RHODES,
_Esq., take the Chair.
Moved by Mr. Wm. ANDREWS, seconded by JOHN LANGLEY,
and carried unanimously,
That for the reasons stated at this- meeting, the proposed
measure of Mr. Robert Alexander, as an improvement bill for
the Township of Tranmere, shall be strenuously opposed in all
its future stages, it being based on misrepresentation and ut-
terly inadequate to the wants and purposes of the township,
and would cause a large increase of its local burthens without
procuring any commensurate advantage.
Moved by Mr. JOH N ELLIS HIGGI N, seconded by Mr. SAMUEL
RAWLA ND, and resolved, ' •
That it is highly expedient that no local Parliamentary mea-
sure for this Township be at present attempted or adopted by
any party until the Government Bill, introduced in the last ses-
sion, for the improvement of the sewerage and drainage of
towns and populous districts, known as Lord Lincoln's Bill,
and which seems to embrace all the objects and wants of this •
township and obtainable at an inconsiderable expense, be first
disposed of ; and, in the meantime, that this township do peti-
tion both Houses of Parliament to pass the same into a law.
Moved by Mr. JABEZ DUNSFORD, seconded by Mr. JAS. BALL,
and Resolved,
That Messrs. William Waring Perry, William Sharp, Henry
Anderson, William Stuart, James Abraham Rhodes, James
Routledge, Henry Cram, James Ball, and George Law, be now
appointed a permanent local committee to watch the future pro-
gress of the proposed bill ; and that the said W. W. Perry, W.
Sharp, and George Law, be now empowered to act as a deputa-
tion in London, on behalf of the township, to oppose every at-
tempt to carry the measure through Parliament.
Moved by Mr. Wm. STUART, seconded by Mr. HENRY By-
c HANAN, and resolved,
That the foregoing resolutions be printed in the Liverpool
Chronicle and Liverpool Standard, and also in the two Chester
papers.
Moved by Mr. DUNSFORD, seconded by Mr. WOODCOCK,-
That the warmest thanks of this meeting be presented to
Messrs. Perry, Sharp, Law, Routledge, Cram, and Anderson,
who have retired from the late committee, for the interest they
have taken in the affairs and welfare of the township.
JAMES ABRAHAM RHODES, Chairman.
Moved by Mr. GEORGE LAW, seconded by Mr. HENRY AN
DERSON, and resolved,
That the thanks of this Meeting he given to the Chairman for
his kind and able conduct in the chair.
