SHIPWRECKED FISHERMEN AND MARINERS'
BENEVOLENT SOCIETY,
26, BUCKLERSBURY, LONDON.

THE Liverpool Shipmasters' Association having con-
JL to become the Auxiliary Branch of this Society,
beg to caution the Public against Persons making application
for relief representing themselves to be Shipwrecked Fisher-
men or Mariners.
It is requested that all objects in apparent distress be re-
ferred to Mr. Moss, the Master of the Rooms, 5, Oldhall-
street, who will thoroughly investigate the circumstances,
and, if deserving, afford relief.
This Society is founded with the view of giving relief and
assistance to the widows and orphans of fishermen, and of
mariners, members of this Society, who lose their lives by
storms and shipwreck on any part of the coasts of the United
Kingdom, while engaged in their lawful occupations ; and
also to render necessary assistance to such mariners,soldiers,
or other poor persons, as suffer shipwreck upon the said
coasts.
The nature of relief intended to be given by the Society is
of the following description :—Should a fisherman, having a
wife and family depending on him, be unfortunately drowned
whilst in the exercise of his calling, the agent, or some mem-
ber of any Branch Committee on the spot, shall visit, with
as little delay as possible, the cottage of the poor widow and
orphans • and if it be ascertained that the fisherman has left
a son old enough t 6 pursue his father's business, for the
maintenance of the widow and family, he is to be assisted in
part or the whole, as the case shall prove to require, so as to
place him with materials in a boat, to enable him to under-
take it. If, however, the lost fisherman shall not have left a
son old enough to assist, in any material degree, the widow
and family, the next endeavour should be to induce the widow
to maintain herself and family by her own exertions ; and, to
assist her first efforts, the rent of her cottage, for the first
year of her widowhood, might be paid ; or such other de-
scription of relief might be afforded, as may appear to those
on the spot best calculated to rescue the widow and orphans
from want and distress. Relief of a like nature will also,
under similar circumstances, be offorded to the widows and
orphans of mariners, who, at the time of their being lost,
were members of this Society.
In case of mariners, soldiers, or other poor persons, who
may suffer shipwreck, they are to be supplied with food and
cheap clothing, when their cases absolutely require it, and as
speedily as possible are to be forwarded to their respective
parishes, or to the places of residence of their friends.
The terms of subscription to this inestimable Society are
fixed at the low rate of two shillings and sixpence per annum,
to enable all classes to contribute to it.
Mr. Moss is authorised by the Committee of Management
to receive Subscriptions and Donations.
Subscriptions and Donations are also received at the Office
of this Paper.

When a Postmaster is applied to for a Money Order, for
the Metropolis, he will be careful to ascertain in what part of
London the person in whose favour the Order is granted
wishes to have it paid, so that the Money Order may be
drawn upon the Office which is most convenient to him, and
the Postmaster will direct the Letter of Advice to the Office
on which it is drawn, as at that Office alone it can be paid.
A Money Order granted upon London, without specifying
any particular Office in London,; can only be paid at the
General Post Office in St. Martin s-le-Grand. •

no hazard. Money Orders, for Sums not exceeding Five
Pounds, are granted and paid by every Post Town in the
United Kingdom, and by the Chief Office in St. Martin's-

ceiving Houses within the Twelve Mile
Those who may desire to remit Bank Notes or Drafts
payable to Bearer, may Register the Letter on payment of a
