The Committee, in seeking the support of Public would point out that though as yet the Society is in its infancy, it has been the means alleviating a great deal of distress.

The Committee have been limited]] in the 1 *?^ they have been enabled to afford, by the scarci*; of funds; but they hope, under the present circumstances of the Institution, the Subscribers and the Public will assist them with the means to enlarge its useful purposes.

The Committee are also desirous of drawing the attention of the numerous Subscribers and Friends of the Institution to the necessity of an Asylum being erected at once, so that provision may be made for the aged and infirm, and destitute and orphan children.

i The Government having granted a site, voted a sum of one thousand pounds (£1000) wards this object, the Committee are desirous ' proceeding as soon as sufficient money can be raised towards the erection of a suitable building, the cost of which they have ascertained would be about two thousand pounds (£2000)— they earnestly solicit public support for so worthy an object, feeling sure that the appeal will mcc* with that hearty response so generously concede* in cases of this kind by all classes of the community. Subscription can be placed to the credit on tht Otago Benevolent Institution, Bunk of Net* South Wale 3, or forwarded to the c ffioe of the Society, Farley's Buildings, Princes streor. W.
