Event Comment: By Permission of the Lord Chamberlain. Benefit for Lady Perrott and her Orphan Family. Lady Perrott trusts that this will be her last appeal to public commiseration, hoping to obtain justice from her claims in Jamaica. When it is considered that these agonizing efforts to preserve five helpless children are made by a woman born to all the delicate indulgences attending on rank and fashion, every species of apology would be deemed an insult to be had of Lady Perrott, No. 28, Spring-street, Portman-square
