Charities mark fortieth year at Free masons and education gala
The fortieth anniversary of a charity aiding poor married women in child bed was celebrated at Free Mason's Tavern with Michael Angelo Taylor in the chair, etc. A General Meeting of the National Society at Baldwin's Gardens followed, with the Archbishop of Canterbury presiding and a bequest of £5,000 noted. A separate charity event at St Paul's cathedral drew Lord Mayor and bishops, ending in a large collection for the institution. A deadly theatre wall collapse in Shrewsbury killed several, with an infant miraculously saved and orphans aided by locals.
