DONATION OF £5OO MADE ANONYMOUSLY. PROJECT ANYTHING BUT DEAD AS RESULT OF WAR. (By Telegraph—Press Association.i WELLINGTON. This Day. A gift of £5OO toward the building of the projected Anglican Cathedral for Wellington was announced yesterday by the organising secretary of the appeal. Canon D. B. Malcolm. He said the donation comes as a most welcome surprise, and he had no idea of the identity of the donor. The bank had simply notified him that the moneyhad been paid into the cathedral account. Canon Malcolm mentioned also that within the last four weeks the sum of £9OO, exclusive of the £5OO alreadyreferred to. had been received in the form of promises redeemed. In addition. £5O had come in during this week. He had received a letter yesterday from the Bishop of Wellington, the Rt Rev H. St. Barbe Holland, enclosing sums which amount in Now Zealand currency to £25 given him byEnglish friends without his solicitation. The bishop, he added, was due from England very shortly. "The way that money is coming in for the cathedral indicates that the project is anything but. dead as a result of ihe war." said Canon Malcolm.
