THE WRECK OF THE STELLA' AND TEE LAPIDARY STYLE.
[To THE EDITOR OF THE "SPECTATOR:']
SIR,—The inscription which Mrs. Marston sent to you written by Miss Frances Power Cobbe, is one that is contemplated and under consideration, but which has not been settled upon yet. I believe Miss F. P. Cobbe intends altering it in some slight details, and had not intended its being published till it was quite settled. I hope very soon to let your readers know exactly what form the monument is to take and what the inscription is to be. Our ' Stella ' Stewardess Fund is now over £450, and is to be apportioned as follows :—(a) Simple monument or memorial (2250) ; (b) support of aged father and starting children on useful lives (2250); (c) any surplus over £500 will go to the Mayor of Southampton's fund for all the sufferers from the `Stella' disaster, and to a public memorial, if one is raised. My last letter to the Times, of which I enclose a copy, explains this.—I am, Sir, &e., ANNIE J. BRYAN& Woollet Hall, North Cray, Kent, May 30th.
