The Society was founded in 1857 and granted a Royal Charter in 1950; since its foundation it has maintained a Home at Belvedere, Kent, for aged and infirm Merchant Navy men of all ranks and ratings, and has recently erected a new home to replace the old, with accommodation for 130. British Merchant Navy officers and men are also assisted by the award of pensions and grants when aged and in need. Separate funds exist for assisting widows and dependants of men who lost their lives in the two world wars and to those who were disabled as the result of such service.

Other parts played by members of the BBC Drama Repertory Company
Kitty's confinement is successfully over, and she and Konstantin Levin are the proud parents of a baby son.
But Vronsky and Anna, still in Moscow, still awaiting an answer to Anna's letter to her husband asking for a divorce, are at a crisis in their relationship. Quarrels between them have become constant, and Anna, increasingly dependent on drugs to dull her misery, has reached a condition where she finds it hard to distinguish reality and her fear-haunted dreams-dreams that are becoming ever more frequent.
Anna's brother, Stepan, on a visit to
Petersburg, has seen Karenin personally in an effort to persuade him to accede to Anna's request.
