Appeal for Mission to Forces Fund.
THE last time we asked our people not to contribute more money to the above Fund we hoped that, in the Lord’s good and holy providence, the War would come to an end before the coming winter. It is evident now that, on account of our persistence in sin against God, our young men are to have another winter’s hardships on sea and land.
If the good work carried on since October, 1914, at Portsmouth and Chatham is to be continued, more money is necessary. We therefore appeal to friends to come again to our assistance, so as to enable us to persevere in our efforts to send God’s truth by the mouth of our ministers to our Highland naval men.
Please send your contributions direct to Mr. Alex. MacGillivray, Woodbine Cottage, Glenurquhart Road, Inverness.
NEIL CAMERON, Convener.
