DONATION TO MISSION TIMELY AID REMEMBERED How a sailor who had been assisted some years ago by the Flying Angel Missions to Seamen, when down and out, and how he recently expressed his gratitude in practical form, was told at last evening’s committee meeting of the mission by the chaplain, the Rev. H. K. Vickery, -f > The chaplain said he had received a letter from the vicar of Kawakawa enclosing a donation of £l4 to the mission funds, handed him by a young man working on the north railway. He had soma years earlier received timely aid from one of the mission s branches, and wished to make a contribution now that he was on his feet. Mr. Vickery said the case was not an isolated one, but wished there were many more like the grateful sailor from the North.
