St. Vincent de Paul Orphanage SOUTH DUNEDIN ♦ AN APPEAL St. Joseph's Cathedral, Dunedin, October 28, 1908. Permit me, through the means of your widely-circulating paper, to make an appeal to "your charitably-disposed readers in the interests of the orphan and neglected children who have found a home in the St. Vincent de Paul Orphanage,. South Dunedin, under the care of the Sisters of Mercy. The Sisters have now over ninety such children under their care, for thirty of whom they receive no payment, whether from the Government, or Charitable Aid Boards, or. any other source. In the past it has been our proud boast that we never refused to give a home to a deserving child, -whether payment was foreseen or not. This places a great burden on the shoulders of the good nuns. Your charitably-disposed readers can help them to carry that burden by sending subscriptions in money, or in gifts of clothes or other goods, all of which will be thankfully received. I therefore now appeal to that wide circle of friends who are interested in the work of the Orphanage that they may <lo something for the ' little ones ' whom Christ came *to save. "** By sending subscriptions direct to the Sisters of Mercy, South, Dunedin, or to me at the address which appears at the head of this appeal, they will be helping a noble cause by providing a home for the homeless child. (Rev.) JAMES COFFEY, Adm., Manager, St. Vincent de Paul Orphanage.
