The SOLDIERS RELIEF FUND.

To tAs Churches aud People Of Maine:
The state of Maine has sent regiment
Of her noblest sons 10 battle for human
kberty and 70 defend the national honor
in the war with Spain. The dangers and
hardships Of this contest will be great
its centres will be outside the limits OF
our own beloved land and where, be-
sides the enemy and the privstions incl
dent 20 war, our BOYS must face the con-
ditions which surround the unaeclimated
in the tropics, and that subtle foe,
disease.
In order TO tighten their burdens and
TO relieve in some measure their dis
tresses, il is proposed TO raise funds 10
be expended for such comforts and deli
cscies, not supplied by the general gov
eminent, as NAV be necessary for the
sick and wounded men Of our regiment.
The change from the inspiring air. the
cool, refreshing springs, and the luxuri-
Gus homes Of Maine, 20 the privstions OF
army life under n hot southern sun Is
very great, and Is infinitely intensified In
the distress Of the sick and wounded.
We may greatly relieve that distress.
This is case where the gift of "a cup OF
cold water only" cannot lose its reward.
The pastor Of every church in Msine
is hereby requested TO call the attention
Of his congregation to these facts, and TO
fix the first Sunday in July as dsy on
which collection shall be taken for this
fund.
The money received from all sources
for this purpose will be forwarded 70, or
expended under the direction Of Major
Bradbury, surgeon Of the First Maine
Volunteer Infantry, who first suggested
the raising Of this fund, and who awaits
our generous response. All collections
and subscriptions will be forwarded TO
