CLEVELAND BRANCH SANITARY COMMISSION.
TO the Pastors Of all Loyal Churches -
While watching the progress of our gallant
armies in the field, we may not forget the
claims of that other great army of wounded
men Who have fallen in gaining the hope
full successes that bring joy to every loyal
heart.
The Sanitary Commission, in its work
upon battle-felds and in hospitals, has ex-
| pended within the last six months over one
and q half millions of dollars, mainly for
wounded soldiers-supplies not otherwise
within their reach, At tn present rate of
expenditure the treasury of the Commission
will be exhausted in few months at latest.
It is decided to present this cause through
| the churches, and to entreat that the con-
tributiOns of the approaching Thanksgiv-
| ing Day may be made THANK OFFERING to
| the disabled and needy soldiers.
Pastors to whom this appeal comes, will
| please urge their people to give generously
| to this object. 1t is now for each one of us
| to decide whether the Sanitary Commission
that has been the loving hand of the peo-
| pie stretched out for the succOr of their
noble armies, shall cease its Good Samaritan
work, or whether, by the generous support
of loyal public, it may continue its minis
| trations of mercy so long as our suffering
| soldiers need the care and comfort which
it offers.
Donations may be sent to Geo. T. Strong,
Treasurer Sanitary Commission, 6s Wall
| Street, N. Y.
Contributions from Northern Ohio may
! be addressed to Soldiers Aid Society, 95
Bank Street, Cleveland, Ohio, an authorized
