JOHN HARRIS, Boot and Shoemaker, | Foxton. October 19, 1888. THE MAGDALEN ASYLUM. A VOICE PROM MABDALA. AN APPEAL. IN f ppealinn for b^bscriptions for the FIRST MAGDALEN ASYLUM in New Zealand, the Sinters of the " Good Shepherd" desire to express, through me thpir sincere gratitude to the inhabitants of this Oily and the Colony generallj for thd kind co-operation afforded them sirce they commenced the pruat work to which their livos are devoted in thei temporary repidencp, Manchester Street North. Hourly we meet with a poor Mugdalen tired of a misspent life, peeking t* shelter, and finding no security a?ait'6t the biting blasts of renewed temptßtio", turns away with the weight of the world's accusation, with the world's condemnation, and hecomosthe victim of ft" unholy impulse, which enjinot be recalled without a uiyh— nay, without a ted. Kindly, tbmior. , bear in mmd — 1. A most desirable fii-.s has beon acquired for the Magdalen near Christ church. 2 His Eminence Caidiunl M- rau laid !iu foundation-stone at ''Mount Magdala " on the 18th of February of last year in the presence of 5000 people, nnd the first portion of the Asylum in near y completed. 3. The advantages of the Mapdalen will be extended to ull New Zealand and elsewhere. 4. Thewaifa and the wanderers who are rescued from the paths «f misery and sin are not aßked to what creed (hey belong. It is sufficient that th«y need succour. 5. The inmates ot " Mount Magdala" . and the Good Shepherd Nuns placed over | them will rememb r alwnye, T7ith lively l gratitude, the benefactors of tbo institution. 6. Subscriptions mny be paid either in part or full, according to the convenience of subscribers. 7. If, merefore, it were ever true to s y "that he gives twice who give* quickly " it is particularly so on the present occasion, in order that soon we may see another House of the Good Shephe d added to the 160 HomcH scattered over the globe, in which r oie than 4000 Beligieuaes bestow their devoted cure on 20,000 Children and young girls while a judicious channel will be found for the outlay c the Funds entrusted to the Institution. 8. The Sisters of the (iood Shepherd will i c gtateful to all those who encourage ueh'friends to subscribe to the tunds of i the Magdalen Asylum. The favour oi an early response will enable me to bring to a speedy conclusion on institution from which circles of good must emanate to exerfise h salutary influence on the future of the Co!ot y. ] I SUBSCRIPTIONS will be also re. caived by Messrs A J. WHYTE and \ H. H. LOUGHNAN ; and by the Key. Mo her Prioress, Convene of the Good Shepherd, Manchester Street, North. Cheques ai d P. O. Ordern to be made payable to me. Ii» tt.
