AN APPEAL ON BEHALF OF A BLIND CLERK.
[To THE EDITOR OF 555 " SPECTATOR:1
Sxu,—May I use your columns to arouse interest in a most difficult case P A man formerly employed as a clerk, and living in Walthamstow, has lost his sight. Through the kindness of one of the societies for helping the blind, and with the assistance of our local Charity Organization Society, he has been provided with a typewriter, and by dint of great perseverance has acquired fair skill in shorthand and type- writing. Unfortunately he seems to have no chance of employment in the open market, and appeals in the local press have met with no response. It has been suggested that some of your readers might find a use for his services at a fair rate of remuneration. To give him employment would be a fitting crown to his plucky effort to fit himself to do something towards maintaining himself, his wife, and child. I shall be pleased to furnish further particulars to anyone interested in the case.—I am, Sir, &c., BRUCE E. WEEKLY,
Chairman Walthamstow Charity Organization Committee.
Bt. Barnabas' Vicarage, Walthamstow.
