THE DISTRESS IN SOUTH WALES
[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] SIR,—Will you accept my very deep and sincere feelings of gratitude on behalf of the poor and needy in the Rhondda Valley, for the very splendid and noble assistance you have given to us in our great time of need. I thought it would be interesting to-you to have a brief abstract of the work done as a result of my appeal made in November last. Could you help me by suggesting how I can show the public my gratitude ?
I feel if every paper who appealed on my behalf would only thank the public and show exactly what has been done it would help them to feel their generosity was made the most of and thoroughly appreciated.
I have a very small sum of money left as balance, which I hope to add to for the winter months.—I am, Sir, &e., B. WATTS MORGAN.
Caemant, Porth, Rhondda, S. Wales.
