WITH TUE ACT OP INCORPORATION. HALIFAX, N. S. PRINTED B7 JAMES BOWES & SONS, BEDFORD ROW 1873. ?^^ / INTRODUCTION. As every Association for tlic assistance and relief of our fellow-creatures is conunendablc and good, it is hoped the NoiiTii British Society of Halifax will be esteemed such by all who candidly pursue the Rules of its Institution. Wlien people meet with misfortune, or fall into distress in a part of the world remote from the land of their nativity ihey naturally select their countrymen to reveal their siluation to them., and to claim their aid. That they might have it ' i their power to interpose with effect in behalf of such claimants, the natives of Scotland and those of Scotch parentage in the city of Halifax, agreed, in the year 1768, to form themselves into a charitable Society. The good effects of their association have now been expe- nenced for 105 years, and though the objects of their charity, like the contributors to it, have, according to their fundamen- tal principles, been North-Britons only, and can, while their present Constitution lasts, be no other, yet there is nothing so narrow or illiberal in their Institution as to indispose them"^ in their individual capacity, from acting up to the principles of universal charity, and joining with the community at large, m acts of social or private beneficence.
