GOLDSMITHS' COMPANY.

Charity Accounts for One Year ending 31st March 1882.

Copy Letter from the Goldsmiths' Company to the Commissioners of Charities.

Goldsmiths' Hall,
31st October 1881.

To the Commissioners of Charities for England and Wales.

Gentlemen,
The Goldsmiths' Company are trustees of 56 Charities. Of these, the income of 31 is given by the founders solely for the benefit of the poor of the Company, and of 12 the income is partly applicable to the poor of the Company. The amount of the income of the 31 Charities for last year was about 8,420l., and the amount of that part of the income of the 12 Charities which is applicable to the poor of the Company for last year was about 1,400l., making together 9,820l. The sum expended by the Company for the benefit of poor freemen of the Company, widows of freemen, and daughters of freemen, unmarried or widows, was 10,733l. The income of some of these Charities is likely to increase in amount. The poor of the Company have been for some time diminishing in number. Of each of the 56 Charity foundations of which the Company are trustees, a separate debtor and creditor account of receipts and payments is kept in the Company's Charity ledger (56 separate accounts), and accounts of all the Charities are annually sent to the Charity Commissioners.

Tables of the names of the founders of the Charities for the benefit of poor members, and of the income thereof, are appended hereto.

It is now evident that the Charity revenues applicable to the poor of the Company will soon much exceed the necessities of the objects of those foundations, and therefore that it will be expedient to find some other beneficial application of the surplus.

With this in view, and for the purpose of simplifying our accounts, I am instructed by the Wardens and Court of Assistants of the Company to apply to the Charity Commissioners for an order enabling the Company to consolidate all their Charities founded solely or partially for their poor and providing that the whole of the revenues applicable thereto shall be carried to the credit of one account with an appropriate heading, and that all payments for the benefit of poor freemen, widows and daughters of freemen, whether by way of pension or donation, shall be debited thereto, the balance whenever there shall be a surplus, to be carried to an accumulation fund, the application of such fund for some charitable object such as the founding a Convalescent Hospital, establishing additional Pensions for the Blind, or the advancement of Education, to be decided on, with the consent of the Commissioners of Charities, so soon as it shall amount to 10,000l.

The Wardens and Court of Assistants hope that this scheme will appear to the Commissioners as it does to them to be expedient, and that the Commissioners will give it their sanction.

I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
Walter Prideaux,
Clerk of the Goldsmiths' Company.

In the return made to the inquiries of the Royal Commission, at the end of the accounts of the Income and Expenditure of our Charities for ten years, ending 31st March 1880, (fn. 1) is the following observation:—

"An examination of this return will show that four fifths of the income of all the Charity property vested in the Goldsmiths' Company is applicable to the poor of the Company, and it will be seen by the accounts that the annual amount expended for the relief of poor freemen, and poor widows and daughters of freemen is considerably in excess of the income applicable to these objects. (fn. 1) A large number of the freemen of the Goldsmiths' Company belong to the artisan class, and become objects of the bounty of the Company in consequence of sickness, age, and want of employment. No deserving member of the Company, no deserving widow, or unmarried or widowed daughter of a freeman, falls into poverty or decay without receiving on application to the Company, pecuniary assistance. The number of persons applying for pecuniary relief, however, diminishes year by year, and the time may probably come when the improved annual value of the Company's trust property, and a diminution of the number of persons requiring relief, will render it desirable for the Company to take into consideration the expediency of applying some portion of the income of the trust estates under a scheme to be approved by the Charity Commissioners, in a manner different from that provided by the wills of benefactors."
