" last Appeal, to the insurance COMPANIES, AT a meeting r held on the Bth inst. , of the Wangajui Fire Brigade, it- was decided to appeal to the Insurance Companies through the , medium of the press, for the, last , time, for their oft promised assistance in the way of procuring a Fire Engine. The Brigade' desire to bring to the notice of the Companies, represented in Wanganui, the. large, interests they have at stake, and their comparatively- unprotected position, consequent on the absence of all appliances for extinguishing fires. This fact, was (recognised by each of the Companies, when it promised to contribute to a fund for the purchase of an engine- There has, however, been no inclination to redeem that promise. Some months ago the London & Liver-pool; office promised an engine on its own account, which originated in an offer made by the Colonial office in Wellington. The engine has not come, and the Brigade suppose the intentions of the Company respecting it have changed. The 18th R. I. being about to leave, the town will be without an engine, and the services of an organised Brigade will be rendered useless. In the presence of these facts, the Brigade have resolved that if assistance from the Insurance Companies, or others, is not given to procure an engine, steps (.will be taken to disband the Brigade. , By Order S.COi^EMAN, Secretary.
