"The Petition of Catherine Hogan

Sheweth that her husband having left her with five Children, one of which has been confined to his bed for the last three weeks, in consquence of which she (Catherine Hogan) has not been able to follow her usual occupation of outdoor work, and is reduced to great distress, and is unable to provide nourishment for her sick boy, or the necessaries of life for the other four or herself, in consequence of which she is compelled to appeal to the benevolent inhabitants of Mudgee for the smallest trifle to enable her to provide for herself and her children, remembering at the same time that they who give to the poor lend to the Lord.
