APPEAL IN BEHALF OF AN INDIGENT FAMILY
James ERITH, who came to this Colony in the year 1820, as a British Settler, unfortunately in the early period of the Settlement met with very heavy losses of Property, which, owing to a variety of causes, it is well known have not yet been adjusted: this delay has plunged him into difficulties beyond the power of his control; his Wife is now in Europe, with a view to obtain a settlement of his Claims; he himself has been for a considerable time in a very weakly state of health, and having a family of Four Female Children, wholly depending on him for their support, ventures to solicit the sympathy and assistance of a Benevolent Public in order to enable him to liquidate a few debts which he has unavoidably contracted, and to complete his arrangements for carrying on his business as a Baker.
The smallest Donation will be gratefully received by himself, and the Children on whose account he ventures to intrude his embarrassed and unfortunate circumstances before the Public.
