To the Editor of the "Norta-Carsa Day News."
Sin—A very ready and generous response has been made to our appeal, which you were kind enough to publish on behalf of the wounded at Tientsin. As a first result thereof we have wow sent off a first shipment consisting of 105 mosquito-nets, 56 pairs of pyjamas, 12 feeding-cups, and 600 fans, also several parcels of shirts, suits, and various articles of clothing; second consignment will be ready for ment on Friday, and with these we trust that the most urgent needs of the sick and wounded will be filled. Much more, however, remains to be done, and while many indies have kindly come forward to assist in making up the things required, material \is running out and funds are still needed to purchase these, as well as for other expenses connected with the work. We would therefore once more put before your readers aa appeal for contributions (to be sent to Mrs. Holliday, as before) so that we may be enabled to nish the undertaking so well and promptly begun.
Thanking you for the insertion of this letter, We are, ete., ete..
