LOYAL REFUGEES FROM SOUTHERN IRELAND.
[To the Editor of the SPECTATOR.] SIR,—Very many loyal refugees from Southern Ireland arrive in this country in a destitute condition, penniless and with only .the clothes they stand up in, while others, less badly off, arc still in need of clothing. They find themselves sorely handicapped in their search for employment by the lack of decent garments, and in several cases the gift of a suit has helped a man to a job. The Association is also assisting a considerable number of men to emigrate to our Colonies and they have to be equipped. The demand for clothes is. therefore acute and our stock has run very low. I therefore venture to appeal to. those of your male readers who have clothes to spare to send them to our Clothing Branch, 23 Tedworth Square, Chelsea, London, S.W. 8. Could the donors see the gratitude with which these gifts are received, they would feel themselves well repaid.—I am, General Secretory, Southern Irish Loyalists Relief Association. 12 Palmer Street, S.W.1.
