from which the men had gone
Many children and especially infants
in these families were in distress.
At the conclusion of Mrs. Testers
report, Mrs. Napier took the matter
under Amusement and promised to
formulate plans for the relief of the
sufferers.
After consultation with persons in
authority, it was found that the
privates in the army had not received
their pay in three and one-half
months and consequently had not
been able to provide for their fam
lilies.
This fact was Immediately COM
municated to Hon. J. c. Napier who
sent an appeal to Mr.. Emmett j.
Scott of the War Department with
the result that the men have been
paid and their families provided for,
The ladies interested in this line

appeal. The men in the army and

who remain at home. Men and

ed to are the real patriots of the day
