sistance after the storm of August 27,

claimed, appointed a committee to
investigate the true conditions, and
the report .-hows an enormous amount
of damage to St. Helena and ad?
jacent islands and also that 156
houses of the poor people on St.
Helena and Paris islands were either
demolished or badly wrecked, re?
quiring a large expenditure of mon?
ey, and that the food crops that were
to Jiave been their support the com
' ing season were also ruined;
"Be it resolved, that the board nt
trade of Beaufort appeal to the peo?
ple of the State to contribute to al?
leviate the suffering. and also re?
quests The State of Columbia and the

solicit subscriptions ,to be forwarded
to the Beaufort board of trade for
distribution if any subscriptions are
received."
