[ ERRATA . —For £ 11 , 090 in fourth line of leader on page 92 , read— £ 11 . 126 13 s . 6 d . ] The Earl of Mount Edgcumbe , Prov . G . M . for Cornwall , in proposing "The Chairman ' s Health , " said that it was as well in exciting times like the present , to turn one's thoughts from war and foreign politics to questions which concerned the meetings of honest

They might not have thought when they were at that table that they would be recipients of the bounty of this Institution ; but it was a fortunate thing that there was an Institution , which opened its doors to deserting objects of charity . Year by year tributes to its worth were made frcm all parts of the country in the shape

[ ERRATA . —For £ 11 , 090 in fourth line of leader on page 92 , read— £ 11 . 126 13 s . 6 d . ] The Earl of Mount Edgcumbe , Prov . G .

Year by year tributes to its worth were made frcm all parts of the country in the shape
