    General Dispensary, Aldersgate-Street, Aug. 19, 1778. The committee appointed by a general meeting of the governors of this charity, for the purpose of raising subscriptions to defray the expence of building a house for the more commodious reception of the governors, their officers, and patients, beg leave to inform those governors, who have not yet subscribed, that this undertaking was not adopted till the great encouragement given to this useful and increasing charity, by a considerable addition of new governors, rendered their present house too small and inconvenient for the purpose above mentioned.
