Anderson orphans, Newhills

ABERDEEN, 16th February, 1814,

TO THE BENEVOLENT.

Any aid of the humane and generous Public is hereby resorted to, if a small fund could be raised to preserve the helpless orphans, as it is intended to send them to Kildrummy, from whence the family moved about three years ago, how soon a place can be obtained.

The aid to this helpless and destitute family of orphans will be thankfully received at the Banks: Athenaeum; News-rooms, Netherkirkgate and Quay; Mr Ewen's shop; Public Library; Baillie Brown and Messrs. Angus' shops.

The application of the contribution will be under the direction of John Niven of Thornton.
