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.
