A PITIFUL CASE.
to inn editor. Sir —A most distresalnr case has occurred in a family of the name of Hslcrow, WingUeld-stieet. The two brothers came from England in the Soukar, the youngest unmarried, and ill when he landed, suffering from consumption;.and he has been confined to his bed almost ever since, entirely dependent on the elder one. who has paid out of his earnings for medical aid until be could do so no longer. On 'Thursday last the latter burst a blood-vessel, and is now confined to his bed. He has a wife and four young children to provide for. It is really the most pitiful case I ever saw. to see those poor men both lying in one room, and suffering so much, pasting to jour humanity to insert the above. —ram, «kc./ * . A Friend. [Our correspondent suggests that in such a case as this we might offer to receive the contributions of the humane. We shall be glad to do so. _ Ed. N.Z.T.]
