TO MRS DON.
Dominion President, W.C.T.U. Dear sister from our Southern Isle, Mistress of rhetoric and speech, Whose kindly face is lit with loving smile, Whose words of wisdom, cheer, inspire and teach. We hail you as the champion of our cause, Which strives to banish the accursed drink, To make and cherish good and righteous laws, And steer our Nation's course from Ruin’s brink. You long have laboured for this purpose true. And spent your life and strength in ceaseless flow; Have ever kept our cherished goal in view, \nd bravely grappled with our treacherous foe. With much regret we now must say farewell, God speed your journeying over land and sea; The outcome of the contest God alone can tell, But may your heart and ours be glad with Victory. —Written by Mr Fulljames. Auckland, July 28th, 19?5.
