Appendix XII.

Extract from the "South China Morning Post" of the 7th of September, 1937.

CORRESPONDENCE.

TYPHOON SUFFERERS.

(To the Editor, S.C.M. Post).

Sir,-Having regard to the suffering and misery caused by the typhoon to the inhabitants of the Taipo and Sha Tau Kok areas, both afloat and ashore, I ask that you accept the enclosed cheque for $200 as a contribution towards a fund directed at the assistance of these unfortunate people. Perhaps the District Officer North might be good enough to direct the administration of such a fund.

I am writing you rather than to the District Officer direct as I feel there are undoubtedly others like myself who want to help and if they see a fund has been established they will come forward with contributions. I am sure other New Territories residents who have daily opportunities to admire the fortitude of our hard-working neighbours will wish to help them in this extraordinary calamity.

W. T. Stanton.

(We shall be pleased to accept and acknowledge contributions-Ed., S. C. M. Post.)
