SUPPORTED ENTIRELY BY VOLUNTARY CONTRIBUTIONS. Offices: Victoria House, 111, Victoria St., Westminster, S.W. President-HIS GRACE THE DUKE OF WESTMINSTER. K.G., &c. &c. Chairman of Committee and Treasurer-JOSEPH FRY, Esq. Secretary-M. W. MILTON. THIS IS THE ONLY AGENCY FOR PROVIDING FREE SUPPLIES OF WATER FOR MAN AND BEAST IN THE STREETS OF LONDON, and the relief which it affords both to human beings and dumb animals is incalculable. Thousands of people, young and old, who now quench their thirst at the Fountains, would probably be driven to the public-house; and if it were not for the Troughs, the amount of suffering amongst the multitude of dumb animals continually crowding round them would be almost inconceivable. Half-an-hour spent at any one of them during a hot summer's day would do more to secure sympathy and support for the Association than any words which the Committee can use; they therefore very earnestly solicit liberal contributions, and they trust the good work will not be permitted to languish for lack of funds. ANNUAL SUBSCRIPTIONS and DONATIONS may be paid to the Bankers, Messrs. Ransom, Bouverie & Co., Pall Mall, S.W., and Messrs. Barclay, Bevan & Co., Lombard Street, E.C.; or at the Offices, to M. W. MILTON. Secretary.
