THIS EVENING (TUESDAY), the 2Gth Instant,

TO TM

THE LAW COURTS AND ST. GEORGE'S
HALL.
The Inauguration of St. George's-hall, and the universal
admiration which it has elicited as a work of consummate
architectural magnificence and public utility, forcibly reminds
us of the obligations and the respect we owe to the genius and
the efforts of its ►amented author, the late W. L. ELMES.
We should feel the obligations the more sensibly from the
conviction that those efforts in our favour were amongst the
proximate causes of his premature death ; and from the fact
that his surviving widow and son have been thereby subjected
to pecuniary privations And embarrassments, which we are
generally hound to mitigate by every means in our power. A
Committee has, therefore, been composed of the subjoined Gen-
tlemen to carry out this expression ; in which it is confidently
believed every individual of our community will warmly par-
ticipate, by the provision of such means as will relieve Mrs.
Elmes from those embarrassments under which she is now
suffering. The late Mr. Elmes rose early into eminence upon
very limited means; but the expenses consequent upon such
professional distinction were unfortunately unredeemed by
that recompense vthich, with time, would naturally have
followed his meritorious labour. Still he neglecte 1 none of
the daties of son, a husband, and a father. The prudent in-
surance of his life in the Sun-office was unhappily vitiated by
his vain search of health in Jamaica, and his death there in
1847, of which a small sum only was recovered by the liberality
of the Directors of that institution.
The following Gentlemen have been appointed a Committee
to receive Subscriptions, and Contributions are respectfully
solicited. COMMITTEE.
