The Tomb of Geoffrey Chaucer in Westminster Abbey is fast mouldering into

irretrievable decay. A sum of One Hundred Pounds, will effect a perfect

repair. The Committee have not thought it right to fix any limit to the

contribution; they themselves have opened the list with a subscription from

each of them of Five Shillings; but thy will be ready to receive any

amount, more or less, which those who value poetry and honour Chaucer may

be kind enough to remit to them.

Subscriptions have been received from the Earls of Carlisle, Ellesmere, and

Shaftesbury, Viscounts Strangford and Mahon, Pres. Soc. Antiq., The Lords

Braybrooke and Londesborough, and many other noblemen and gentlemen.

Subscriptions are received by all the members of the Committee, and at the

Union Bank, Pall Mall East. Post-office orders may be made payable at the

Charing Cross Office, to William Richard Drake, Esq., the Treasurer, 46.

Parliament Street, or William J. Thoms, Esq., Hon. Sec., 25. Holy-Well

Street, Millbank.
