Fulford Memorial Fond. 
Wilmington, Del., March 30.— Since my last advice of March 
2, relating to the contributions to the Fulford Memorial Fund, 
at which time there was on hand $544, subsequent donations have 
brought the amount up to $561, and the donors have been as 
follows: John W. Hoffman, S. M. Van Allen, Baldwinsville 
Gun Club— Windsor Morris and C. J. Dalley— WiUiam Torpey, 
R. M. Crumley. 
The committee in charge of this fund has advised that the 
contractors who will furnish the monument have made conces- 
sions which will enable the committee to expend the above 
amount and at the same time probably have some money on 
hand, and any part of this fund that remains on hand at the 
dote of dedication will be used toward furnishing floral offer- 
ings that would be most appropriate for the services. 
It will therefore be unnecessary .for interested friends to make 
further donations unless they wish their contributions to apply 
toward the flowers. 
I wish to tiiank every one for the interest which has been 
evinced by the sportsmen friends throughout the country. 
The next report covering this will be a final one, showing dis- 
position of the money, when it is placed in the hands of Messrs. 
Keller, Elliott, Butler and Fanning. J. T. Skelly.
