To the Editor of the "Norta-Cuina Dairy News."
Sir,—As a result of the appeal I made sometime ago on behalf of the British Red Cross Society, I am now pleased to inform you that a cheque for £344. 19. 0. representing the contribution of the Shanghai Community to the Fund, has been forwarded by Sir B. F. Alston at Peking to the President of' the Society.
I would take this opportunity of once more thanking all those who have been instrumental in raising this very acceptable sum which, in view of the heavy calls already made on local benevolence, is I think a very creditable effort.
I an, ete., Shanghai, Jan. 10.
