LADlBS AND GENTLEMEN, For the past 15 years I have bad the honour of being your representative, and once more I place my services before you and seek a continuance of your confidence. The next three years will probably see a chancre in the system of Poor Law Administration—in the meantime, if elected, I will continue to take a sympathetic interest in the deserving poor. I will endeavour, at the same time, to safeguard the general interest of the ratepayers by opposing needless expenditure. My experience of rating and valuation is well known to you, and the interest I take in the financial questions of the Guardians will be con-, tinued. Trusting that on April 4th I shall receive the vote and interest of my fellow-townsmen and all those who have supported me in the past, Your obedient Servant. DAVID EVANS. The Oafé, Queen's-road, Merthyr. Election of Guardians, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE DOWLAIS WARD. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, With much gratitude I have to tender yon my sincere thanks for your kindness in returning me a Member of the Merthyr Tydfil Board of Guard- ians, and this without a contest makes the compli- ment so much more to be appreciated. Allow me again to thank you, and also my sup- porters who me not voters in the Ward, for attend- ing, and for the hearty and encouraging reception given meat the Meeting on Monday Evening, the H inst. I trust, by close application, to become versed in the necessary requirements of the Poor Law, and wish to say my best endeavours will be used for the betterment of those who fipd it necessary to appeal for assistance to the Guardians. You may be sure the interests of the Dowlais Ward will not be neglected by me. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Yours faithfully, CHARLES FENWICK. 18th March, lftjO. Merthyr Board of Guardians ELECTION, 1910. TO THE ELECTORS OP THE PENY- DARKEN WARD. LADIES Aim GENTIAMEK, Yon have done me the honour of electing me as one of your Representatives on the Board of Guardians for several years past, and as the term for which you last elected me will expire this month, I again appeal to you for a renewal of your confidence. In making this appeal I claim to have faithfully attended to the duties devolving upon me as your Representative on the Board, and as a Guardian of the poor-whilst carefully enquiring into all applications for relief and extending every assistance to the necessitous—I have en- deavoured to avoid reckless distribution and wastefulness in the several Institutions whioh are managed by the Guardians. A good deal of the work of the Board is done in Committee, and in this direction I have always given my best attention and regularly visited Schools, Cottage Homes, the House and Infirmary. If you again honour me by electing me as one of yonr representatives, I will give the same careful attention to yoar interests, to the wants of the poor in the renydarren ward, in particular, and of the parish generally. I am, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your obedient Servant, THOMAS EDWARD MORGAN. 230, High-street, Dowlais, March 17th, 1910. Merthyr Board of Guardians. TO THE ELECTORS OF PENYDARREN WARD. LADIBS AND GzNTLism-am, Once again I beg to offer myself for re-election on the above Board. During the nine years I have had the hopour of ve representing you, I have discharged my duties faithfully and concientiously. Although family considerations have obliged me to live in Cardiff 1 Lr for the present, I can assure you that this will in no way interfere with my attending the meetings, and care for the interests of the poor as before. I am in Merthyr almost every day of the week, and consequently, there can be no difficulty in my interviewing any people who wish to see me on matters pertaining to the Merthyr Union. The importance of having women on the Board who can readily enter into matters concerning the aged, the siok, and the little children who are committed to the care of the Guardians, is now fully recognized, and I beg of you, in considera- tion of my former services on the Board, and m the various committees, to hsnour me with a re- newal of your confidence. I remain, Youra faithfully, (Signed), MARY A. EVANS. The Waterloo, 38, High Street, Merthyr TydfiL March 21st, 1910. TONG & COBON, AUCTIONEERS, VALUERS, GAUGERS BROKERS, &c.
