The Foundling Site

In another column this week we publish a letter from Mrs. Trevelyan, the Honorary Secretary of the Foundling Site Appeal. We are delighted to hear that such a mag- nificent response has been made to the Appeal that only a further £18,000 is needed to secure the whole site for the children and for London. We cannot believe that what is so nearly achieved will now be allowed to fail. At the same time, we hope that this confidence, which our readers will no doubt share with us, will not deter any of them who can afford to do so from claiming the privilege of helping to justify it.
