Summary Remarks  An Interesting Case. It is little more than a year since the benevolence and humanity of the Settlement were appealed to, in the behalf of the Widow and Children of Mr Andrews, a Naval Officer of merit, who had long been considered a prisoner of war at Bangalore, and after his release, entered into mercantile concerns at Madras, where he married an amiable European gentlewoman. He lived there for three years, when his business went into decline he was advised to try his fortune in Bengal. He arrived in December 1791, and sent for his family from Madras. In March 1791 they had the grievous misfortune to find that the affectionate husband, the tender father, and their only earthly protector had been dead twelve days. Mrs Andrews soon found herself in a state of poverty, and she struggled with the climate, being victim to it about a month ago leaving f.... Orphans, the eldest scarcely five years of age, and the youngest born four months after the father's death. These Orphans will be considered as having strong claims to the attention of the liberal and humane. Any bounty bestowed on them will be received by Messrs Paxton, Cockrell and Co. or by Messrs Baillie, Reid and Co.
