A LIBERAL RESPONSE 
Manchester Citizens Responded Most Gen- 
erously to the San Francisco Relief Fund 
Collected by the Committee Yesterday— 
Contribution thus far $1,360.60 
Manchester has responded most 
liberally to the San Francisco relief 
fund. All day yesterday the commit- 
tee to whom had been given the work 
of collecting subscriptions for the 
fund received money, and the total 
amount figured up last night far in 
excess of what was expected. 
The total amount received up to 
last night, most all of which was col- 
lected by the committee yesterday, 
was $1,560.60, and there are many 
who have not yet given, who will. 
Mr. Swett, the chairman, desires the 
BREEZE to say that those whom the 
committee have not been able to see, 
and who wish to contribute, may leave 
their contributions with the town 
treasurer, Mr. Stanley, in the town 
hall, on or before next Wednesday 
night, as the total contribution will be 
sent to the general treasurer next 
Thursday morning. 
Last Friday Gov. Guild appointed 
Chairman F. K. Swett of the select- 
men at the head of a committee to 
look after the local subscriptions, and 
Saturday evening Mr. Swett called a 
meeting of representative citizens in 
the selectmen’s office. As a result of 
the meeting the following committee 
was made up: Fred K. Swett, Alfred 
S. Jewett, Wm. J. Johnson, Edward 
A. Lane, Oliver T. Roberts, W. F. 
Powers, George Kimball, E. H. Brews- 
ter, C. A. Lincoln and Edwin P. Stan- 
ley. This committee organized with 
Mr. Swett as chairman, A. S. Jewett 
as secretary and E. P. Stanley as 
treasurer. They decided to make a 
canvass of the town and give every- 
body an opportunity of giving, how- 
ever little or much they please. 
The following circular was dis- 
tributed around town Wednesday, and 
yesterday the committee made their 
rounds collecting the subscriptions : 
Manchester, Mass., April 24, 1906 
Feilow Citizens: 
In accordance with the request 
of the Governor to the Chairman of 
the Board of Selectmen, 4 commit- 
tee was appointed to solicit sub- 
scriptions in aid of the sufferers by 
the dreadful catastrophe which 
overwhelmed and nearly destroyed 
the principal seaport,of our west- 
ern coast. The undersigned were 
appointed to canvass the town in 
furtherance of this cause. The 
devastation and havoc wrought by 
these elemental forces was so over- 
whelming that unparalleled activity 
became necessary to alleviate the 
great suffering and hardship which 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
followed in consequence. Govern- 
mental protection has been thrown 
about them for the time being; but 
the need of continuous aid for some 
time to come is very apparent. 
What, then, is our duty in this 
matter? Plainly, by all the ties of 
a commoi humanity, to give of our 
means for the relief of our unfortu- 
tiate friends and fellow-countrymen. 
We appeal to you, then, fellow- 
citizens, to contribute most gener- 
ously, according to your ability, 
towards this most worthy object. 
Let. us strive, then, with a noble 
emulation, to make our gifts com- 
mensurate with the occasion and 
the pressing needs of those sorely 
afflicted. With and unselfish spirit 
and lofty devotion to duty, may we 
ever keep in mind that sublime ut-
