In behalf of those who will be the happy |
of these contributions l wish TO
Express my sincere thanks for the many
lifts both large and small. They will all
)e extremely welcome | am sure. A dollar
1r two will buy -four enough to support a
lshcrman's family many weeks. The bene-
to them will be much greater than any
possible loss felt by these glad givers. They
NiIl bring a happy Christmas TO many a
and where most appreciated.
Funds received in the future will also 10
'orwardcd to Bishop Dictrichson. and will
,e receipted for in the press.
Very respectfully.
Hans N. Orfeld.
