MYNDE circa 1760 To The King's Most Excellent Majesty SIRE, laying this History and Inventory of the Armouries of the Tower INof London before Your Majesty, I cannot but feel that, in a work of this nature, it would be unfitting that I should take credit for more than the compilation and collation of a large amount of work done by others in the past. In tracing the changes that have taken place from the time when the Tower was a Storehouse of Military Equipment up to the present day, when it is the resting place of a Collection of Royal and Historical Armours many of which are without equal in Europe, I have availed myself of the National Records and also of the generous assistance of living authorities who have made a special study of the several subjects which are dealt with in these pages. I therefore ask Your Majesty's gracious permission to acknowledge here my indebtedness and gratitude to my predecessor Viscount Dillon, first Curator of the Armouries, who has unreservedly placed at my disposal the vast amount of notes, photographs, and researches, which he had collected during over twenty years of office.

In conducting the review, the City has been required to take certain steps set out in Schedule A1 of the Representation of the People Act (1983). Having following the statutory process, this report is to make recommendations to the Committee for the future arrangements for polling stations and polling places in the City to be used at UK Parliamentary elections.

A Child is not bom * Genesis iii, 16, into the World, but at the Hazard of that very Life, to which, under God, it is indebted for its own. Such being the Lot of Child- bearing ; not to fhew the utmoft Compaffion, not to adminifter pro- per Relief, to Women under thefe Circumftances muft argue a moft unfeeling Difpofitiom To be capa- ble of it, we muft reiift the generous Propenftty of our Nature, which feems particularly inclined to Emo- tions ol Tendernefs for Perfons in that diftrefsful and dangerous Skua- tiom And who can fay, whether God (who in the midfl of fudgment thinketh upon Mercy) did not, at the very Time that he decreed Woman to * multiply her Sorrow and her Con- ception, defign, in order to mitigate that Sorrow, to imprefs upon the hu- man Heart a ftrong Commiferation of her fad Condition. But, without attempting nicely to account for that particular Regard, which is ufually fhewn to Women in Labor, it is cer- tainly well founded, does Honor to our Species, and ought to be care- fully cherifhed and indulged. For thefe Reafons, and with thefe Views, this Charity was firft in- ftituted, and now lolicits the Coun- tenance and Beneficence of the Public.
