WOMAN’S TOUCHING GIFT
CHINESE REFUGEE FUND
(Per Press Association.) DUNEDIN, this day
An unusual and touching token at once bespeaking 'thrift and generosity, was received by the mayor this morning in the guise of five worn and tattered banknotes of a value of £3O, which had obviously been stored away for many years. An unsigned message with the parcel, apparently in a woman’s handwriting, read: “A thanksgiving offering for the Chinese refugee children.”
