GENERAL BOOTH
CONFERMENT OF HONOUR. LEXTER TO THE KING. {United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) LONDON, May 2, General Booth, in a letter to the King, says; “The conferment on me of the Companionship of Honour will afford great pleasure to our people and friends throughout the Empire and elsewhere. My only regret is my inability, owing to my illness, actively to participate in the w6rk which has been my joy for half a century, and to which, if it is Gods will, I shall devote the remainder of my life. I pray that God will grant you complete restoration to health and strength.”—Australian Press Association'—United Service.
