TO THE RATEPAYERS OF LIVERPOOL.
THE PAROCHIAL WATER COMMITTEE, ap-
pointed by the late Special General Vestry to adopt mea-
sures for putting a stop to the costly project of water supply,
known by the name of the Pike Scheme, beg to apprise the
Ratepayers at large, that, hitherto, although all diligence has
been used preliminary proceedings only have been taken, and
that no one conclusive step has been definitely agreed upon.
And they feel it to be their duty, further and emphatically to
declare their conviction, that the question whether any arrange-
ment can be effected at all for staying the scheme, and thereby
protecting the Rate-payers from an enormous expenditure, and
from still more serious liabilities, will entirely depend upon the
election of decided opponents of the scheme, as members of the
Town Council, on the Ist November next.
Slimed in and on behalf of the Committee, in pursuance of
an unanimous resolution.

Churchwarden of Ltverpool,
