THE "SPECTATOR" CHRISTMAS FUND FOR THE POOR CLERGY RELIEF CORPORATION
[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] S111,—T am desired by my Committee to send you the expres- sions of their sincerest thanks for your kind action in reference to our Christmas Appeal. You were good enough to start a Subscription List with a donation of £10 10s., and this list has now reached the sum of £201. This generous response will enable us this year to meet many cases of distress amongst the Clergy families which otherwise we should not have been able to meet. I feel sure that it will be a real satisfaction both to your readers and to yourself, to know this. –I am, Sir, &c., MANDEVILLE B. PHILLIPS. 38 Tavistock Place, Tavistock Square, W.C. 1.
