DRUMMOND AND GLASSON, COMMERCE HOUSE oc2 TIMARU. THE MAGDALEN ASYLUM. A YOIOB FROM MOUNT MAGDALA AN APPEAL. «'<«>»» IN appealing for subscriptions for the FIRST MAGDALEN ASYLUM in New Zealand, the Sisters of the "Good Shepherd ” desire to express, through me, their sincere gratitude to the inhabitants of this City and the Colony generally for the kind 00-operation afforded them since they commenced the great work to which their lives are devoted in their temporary residence, Manchester Street North. Hourly we meet with a poor Magdalen, tired of a misspent life, seeking a shelter, and finding no security against the biting tblasts of renewed temptation, turns away with the weight cf the world’s accusation, with the world’s condemnation, and becomes the victim of an unholy impulse, which cannot be recalled without a sigh nay, without a tear, Kindly, therefore, bear in mind—1. A most desirable site has been acquired for the Magdalen near Christchurch. 2. His Eminence Cardinal Moran laid the foundation-stone at "Mount Magdala” on the 18 th February of last year, in the presence of 5000 people, and the first poaLii uc the Asylum is nearly completed. 8. The advantages of the Magdalen will be extended to all New Zealand and elsewhere. 4. The waifs and the wanderers who are rescued from the paths of misery and sin are not asked to what creed they belong. It is sufficient that they need succour. 5. The inmates of "Mount Magdala”and the Good Shepherd Nuns placed over them will remember always, with lively gratitude, the benefactors of the institution. 6, Subscriptions may ba paid either in cart or in full, according to the eonveni6&«« of subscribers. 7, If, therefore, it were ever true to say "that he gives twice who gives quickly,” it is particularly so on the prwent occasion, in order that soon we may see another Home of the Good Shepherd added to the 150 Homes scattered over the globe in which more than 4000 Rb&ioibusbb bestow their devoted care on 20,000 i Children and young girls, while a judicious channel will be opened for the outlay of the Funds entrusted to the Institution. 8, The Sisters of the Good Shepherd will be grateful to all those who encourage their friends to subscribe to the fundi of the Magdalen Asylum. The favor of an early response will enable me to bring to a speedy conclusion an institution from which circles of good must emanate to exercise a salutory influence on the future of the Colony.
