AN APPEAL FROM THE BACKBLOCKS

At Tuatapere—a bush township in Southland—Mass is celebrated in the most westerly part of New Zealand. The few scattered Catholics are making a bold endeavor to raise funds for a much-needed church but realise their difficulties without assistance from outside. They therefore appeal to the generously disposed readers of the Tablet to help them in their enterprise. Subscriptions may be sent to the undersigned—tery, Riverton—and will be acknowledged in the Tablet.

(Rev.) D. P. Buckley.
