Str,—Will you allow ie to inform contributors to the above fand that they will find copies of the list of subscribers, made
of the Hongkong and Shanghai Bank. A to the 20th of February, on the counter supplementary list will be printed when the fund is finally closed. We have remitted £9,000 to the Lord Mayor, and have at present about Tis, 4,500 in hand. It would every gratifying' to the Committee to receive' further subscriptions to enable them to send a final remittance of £1,000. The sum needyd is not large, and the Committee feel that the patriotism of British subjects here may be cov dently appealed to. 'The fund xt home is large, but none too large for the demands which will be made upon it, especially as the gallant fellows from the Colonies, who have done so much for the mother country, have also to be remembered. 'There hus' been little news from the front lately but what we hear all points to severe fighting at an early date. Britishers out here have already shown their desire to help the men who are laying down their lives for the Empire, and will readily subscribe the small sum still needed to round off the fund in a manner worthy of Shanghai. Tam, ete., Tavtor, Hon. Secretary. 25th April.
