Sir,—In the absence of Sir Arthur Pearson I beg to acknowledge with many grateful thank: receipt of your letter dated June 18, accompanied with a further generous remittance of £1,634 15s. subscribed through the agency of the "North China Daily News.
I enclose an official receipt this amount, and confirm your total of £19,934 15s, subscribed up to date by your readers for the benefit of our nien.
Sir Arthur will be most interested to hear of this contribution on his return about the middle of September.
With renewed thanks, am, ete., W. Bates, Secretary, Blinded Soldiers'

In addition to what has been sent we have in hand the equivalent of roughly £200. So our readers have subscribed over £20,000 to this fund. No other community outside Britain has come anywhere near this total.—Ed.
