An aged lady visited the Lambton Quay pavilion yesterday, and, stalingthat her age was 76, said she wished to give a penny to the fund for overy year she had lived, but could only do it in instalments. The old lady pud down the first instalment, and arranged to come each week until she had made goodlier promise.
