Committee for the Repair of the TOMB OF GEOFFREY CHAUCER.
JOHN BRUCE, Esq., Treas. S.A.
J. PAYNE COLLIER, Esq., V.P.S.A.
PETER CUNNINGHAM, Esq., F.S.A.
WILLIAM RICHARD DRAKE, Esq., F.S.A.
THOMAS W. KING, Esq., F.S.A.
SIR FREDERICK MADDEN, K.H.
JOHN GOUGH NICHOLS, Esq., F.S.A.
HENRY SHAW, Esq., F.S.A.
SAMUEL SHEPHERD, Esq., F.S.A.
WILLIAM J. THOMS, Esq., F.S.A.
The Tomb of Geoffrey Chaucer in Westminster Abbey is fast mouldering into
irretrievable decay. A sum of One Hundred Pounds will effect a perfect
repair. The Committee have not thought it right to fix any limit to the
contribution; they themselves have opened the list with a subscription from
each of them of Five Shillings; but they will be ready to receive any
amount, more or less, which those who value poetry and honour Chaucer may
be kind enough to remit to them.
