TESTIMONIAL

REV. HUGH

M'NEILI

A T a MEETING of GENTLEMEN who have long
.f.l watched with interest the varied and indefatigable ex-
ertions of the Rev. HUGH M`NEILE in promoting the
cause of true religion and the best interests of the country,
especially in connection with Scriptural Education,—
It was unanimously Resolved,—
That the time bad arrived when some Public Testimonial
should be given, expressive of the high esteem in which he
is held, and of the value attached to his eminent services.
A Committee, appointed to consider the best mode of
carryin,, the object into effect, suggested a plan similar to
that which has been adopted in other cases, namely, THE
FOUNDATION OF SCHOLARSHIPS bearing the name of the
individual whom it was intended to honour ; and having
found, by communication with Mr. M'Neile, that it would
be most agreeable to his feelings that the Testimonial should
be made to confer a benefit on the noble Institution recently
erected in this town, it has been determined to endow Ex-
hibitions and Prizes, in connexion with the
LIVERPOOL COLLEGIATE INSTITUTION.
In accordance with this plan, it is proposed to apply the
funds in the following order :-
Ist. To the endowment of an Exhibition, tenable at the
Universities of Oxford, Cambridge, or Dublin, to be

, .
competed for by the Boys of the 'Upper School.
2d. To the endowment of Two Prizes, equal in value to the
free admission of two Scholars in the Middle School, to

be competed for, every year, by the Boys of that School.
3d. To the endowment of Five Prizes, equal in value to the
free admission of five Scholars in the Lower School, to
be competed for, every year, by the Boys of that School.
The surplus to be applied in the purchase of presentations,
not exceeding three, in the Upper School, to be placed at
the disposal of the Rev. Hugh M'Neile, and any further
surplus to be applied at the discretion of the Committee.
In order that the Contributors to this Testimonial may be
as numerous as possible, it is proposed that the Subscription
in any one name shall not exceed Five Pounds.
As there is reason to know that many persons in various
parts of the United Kingdom will be glad to join in this ob-
ject, it is desired that the design be made as generally known
as possible.
The following Gentlemen have been appointed the Com-
mittee to carry the plan into execution, with power to add
