The Committee are also desirous of drawing the attention of the numerous Subscribers and Friends of the Institution to the necessity of an Asylum beiug erected at once, so that provision may ba made for the aged and infirm, and for destitute and orphan children. The Government having granted a site, and voted a sum of one thousand pounds (£1000) towards this object, ths Committee are desirous ot proceeding as soon as sufficient money can ba raised towards the erection of a suitable building. the cost of which they have ascertained would be about two thousand pounds (£2000)-tbey earnestly solicit public support for so worthy aw object, feeling sure that the appeal will mcc. with that hearty response so generously conceded in cases of this kind by all classes of the ooinmu m Subscriptions can be placed to the credit of the Otago Benevolent Institution, Bank of New South Wales, or forwarded to the office of the Society, Betray street, Dunedm
