RUSSIAN FLAG DAY IN WALES.

To the Editor, Amman Valley Chronicle

Sir, – I have much pleasure in forwarding you for publication in your valuable journal a list of collection received up to date in response to the appeal to Wales of behalf of the Russian Wounded.

This you will see, at the moment amounts to £3,810 18s. 2d. Notwithstanding the increasing numerous calls upon the generosity of the public, it is most gratifying to note how magnificently the Principality is manifesting its practical sympathy with this movement; and although the list is somewhat long and newspaper space is a consideration, yet I venture to beg the favour of your giving it insertion, which, in view of its great interest to a large number of your readers, I sincerely trust you will kindly do so as a stimulus to the many other places whose names we should be most happy to add thereto.

Thanking you very much in anticipation – Yours truly,

J. W. TAVERNER,
Hon, Treasurer.
