MoCONKEY, ^:^^i.K -- / _ MEMOm A.L TO THE LEGISLATURE, FOR EDUCATING MUTES AND OTHERS. To the Honourable the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada, in Provincud Parliament assembled. The Memorial of the Municipal Council of the County of Simcoe, That during the present year the attention of the people of Simcoe has been stirred up, in consequence of certain exhibitions of Deaf and Dumb Children from a School in successful operation in Toronto; that enquiries have been made, and your Memorialists find a much greater number of these unfortunate persons in the County than they had any idea of. Viewing the success attending the education in Toronto, and the very limited means by which it is accomplished, and the great Humber who ought to be educated, but cannot, by any i^ssibility, attend the School in Toronto, your Memorialists have come to tlie conclusion that the education of these persons can only be effected bv some jreiieral measure emanating from the Province-, your Memorialists therefore humbly pray /jj^ Honourable Body to take such immediate steps as will at once give an education to the Mutes JMi i^lJiC hilih-en of the Province. id iis in duty bound your Memorialists will ever pray.
