Organized November 9, 1871. Incorporated June 12, 1872. Meets first Thursday of every month, in the Chapel of the First Congregational Church. Annual meeting second Thursday in November.
Soon after the news of the destruction of Chicago by fire reached Oakland, several benevolent ladies of the city met and organized a sewing society, for the relief of the sufferers. After this object was accomplished they concluded to organize under the name of the Ladies' Relief Society, for the purpose of aiding the destitute of their own city, especially women and children, and also to provide a home for aged females.
During the year 1871, Elijah Bigelow, Esq., donated to the society a lot on Franklin Street, between Fourteenth and Fifteenth, valued at $7,000, which he subsequently exchanged for three and a half acres of land near Temescal Creek and directly on the line of the Berkeley Rail- road. From the proceeds of a fair held under the auspices of the asso- ciation and contributions, they collected a building fund of $3,500, which together with the exchange of the three and a half acres, they purchased ten acres of land and a building thereon on Linden Street near new Broadway, known as the Beckwith property. This is beautifully located,
