This valuable Institution, which has now beeri established
upwards of fifty, years, claims the attention of the Merchant,
the Shipowner, and the Underwriter, as well as all other par-
ties interested' in the mercantile Marine of the town of
Liverpool.
Hitherto it has worked silently, yet most beneficially,
affording help in the time of need, in distress, and under
bereavement to the widows of deceased members, and to
many superanuated captains it has been a sheet anchor in
their old age.
Proof is given of a part of the benefits derived from it, as
thirty deceased captains, who had subscribed £9OO to the
Society, their widows having received, in annuities, £6OOO
out of it. Other and numerous instances of its usefulness
can be adduced from the minutes of its proceedings.
Shipmasters, by becoming members, shew a commendable
affection and consideration for their wives and families, and
a disposition of care and thoughtfulness, which cannot fail
to recommend, them with their employers. They secure a
certain provision in old age for themselves, or for their
widows and children ; and they have a beneficial interest in
an honorary fund of upwards of ten thousand pounds.
The widows on the books will now receive each £l2 per
annum, superanuated captains £l6, and orphans 4:6 per
annum, with every probability of increase in these
annuities.
The rules and regulations arenow under a careful revision,
in order to afford, if practicable, still greater advantages to
the several parties, and to extend the sphere of the useful-
ness of this Institution.
Masters of vessels are therefore requested to inquire into
the merits of this foundation ; and are called upon, as they
love their wives and their offspring, as they regard thpir own
interests, or as they respect the good opinion of the commer-
cial world, to join this most valuable Society.
Merchants, Shipowners, and Underwriters, knowing the
dangers to which Ship-masters are exposed by their vocation,
are specially called upon to support this Institution ; and in
doing so by donations or annual subscriptions, contribute
towards the moral advancement of a class to whom they en-
trust their ships and their. merchandi d
ze, and secure the
prayers of the widow in her old age, an the gratitude of the
orphan.
Every information will be given, either by application to
the several members of the Committee, or by the Secretary,
at the Office of Win. Jones and Co. Wapping.
By order of the President,
SAML. BRADFORD, Secretary.
