 Fredericton, 2Sth October, 1825- 
 ■■■■■'' ■■ Gentlemen, ■••■••. x"*-'- '-• t' '•' >' ■••! . - 2: i.. 
 
 \^^E who row lake ihe Liberty of addressing you, having bccij 
 appointed a Committee, at a General Mceiirg of the Inhabit- 
 
 ants uf Fredericton, convened by His Exrellency the Lieutenant* 
 
 ;,'''t'i\j v/:;'n-ii •}'■'■ y 'II ■■ 
 Governor, on the day after the destructive Eie in this Tuvr., to in- 
 
 (] lire into and relieve, as far as a libera! subscription then raised, 
 would enable us, the mjsl urgent wantsof the sufferers ; have exerted 
 ourselves to the utmost in the charitable undertaking. But accounts 
 uf calamirins, of the like nature in other parts of the Province, hav- 
 ing since come to our knowledge, His Excellency has been induced 
 to call a second meeting for the benign and laudable purpose of devis- 
 ing means for rendering the same assistance, which numbers may 
 elsewhere noiy UBfprtunaiely require ; in furtherance whereof, a se- 
 cond subscription for a Genera?. Fund, was proposed which 
 was most liberally supported, and W still increasing. At the head 
 of which His Excqllency, in addition to icverai other sums from 
 hisjwivaie purse, placed Fifty Poundi, and which, (together with 
 such sums as charity from other quarter? my furnish) will be dis- 
 tributed to the besudyantage and relief of all luflferers throughout 
 the Province ; and 4)ur object in now addressing you is to solicit 
 your co-operation with us, in this worji. of duty J^nd urgent ne- 
 cessity. 
 
 Wc have therefore ventured to nominate you a Committee fof 
 
the Parish of . ,, . . ., o aiiured thaf you will use 
 
 every endeavour in your several districts to obtain such charitable 
 aid as can be afforded) in money wherever it can be obiaiihed, but 
 where more convenient, in lumber, grain, or produce of any kind, 
 and to excite the immediate active zeal of tvery one, in an undertak- 
 ing so good and laudable, we are confident we need only remind 
 them, that hundreds, (we may say thousands) of our fellow creatures 
 are in misery and distress. 
 
 And also we would further venture to recommend, that when the 
 Committees have collected all in iheir power, they communicate 
 with the Central Committee, safely depositing the donations they 
 may have received, until arrangements for the distribution of them can 
 
 be made.
