ELECTION ADDRESSES. ELECTION OF GUARDIANS. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF OSWESTRY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,— I beg to offer mvself as a Candidate for the Board of Guardians, and solicit your votes and interest. If elected I should endeavour to make brighter the lives of those who are compelled to go to our Union. I should also advocate partial out- door relief, and try to keep down expenses con- sistent with the requirements of management. I have the honour to be Your obedient Servant, THOS. EDWARDS. LJys Farm, Oswestry, December 3rd, 1894. ELECTION OF GUARDIANS. TO THE ELECTORS OF THE BOROUGH OF OSWESTRY. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,- I beg to offer myself as a candidate for the Board of Guardians. Having been your representa- tive as a Director of the Oswestry Incorporation for nearly four years, I claim to have some know- ledge of the work required to be done. I am an advocate of economy, with efficiency, but I strongly deprecate making the Workhouse a sort of a haven where everybody would like to go, yet I think it is the duty of every Guardian to brighten up the homes of the unfortunate people who have to go there, so that they may pass their time in a cheerful manner, as the life of a pauper in a Workhouse is a pitiable existence. I shall, if elected, gladly support any scheme for the better classification of the inmates of our Workhouses. The Guardians elected under the new District Councils Act will find in the Oswestry Union every- thing in good working order, with an excellent staff of disciplined officers in and out of the House. If you do me the honour of re-electing me on Board, i will endeavour to the bt»st -e £ 'U1oY1 ability to keep up the high position that the Oswestry Union has attained. I have the honour to be Your obedient Servant, THOMAS WHITFIELD. Willow House, December 3rd, 1894.
