THE CASE OF FRANCES MICKLEBURGH,
Of Thrandeston, in the County of Suffolk.
UNDER the afflicting circumstances of the conviction of her Husband, at the last Lent Assizes for the County of Suffolk, of the crime of Murder, Mrs. Frances Mickleburgh was left in the position of a widow, with three young children, and with heavy liabilities incurred for the defence of her husband, and for taking up the copyhold of a small Farm, which, through the kind and generous forbearance of Sir E. Kerrison, she still holds, but which she will be unable to carry on without the assistance of the benevolent. An appeal is therefore made to all who can feel for her painful position, to render her such assistance as may enable her to support herself and to bring up her children by honest industry; and the subscriptions which have been already received from the Gentry and Clergy of the neighbourhood will, it is hoped, be regarded as attestations in favour of her case; but satisfactory references will be given if desired. Any sums, however small, will be thankfully received by the Petitioner, and Messrs. Oakes, Bevan, and Co. have kindly consented to allow contributions to be paid at their Banks.
