TitleCopy letter from Robert Holberton, Archdeacon of Antigua, to the Secretary of the Relief Association, Dublin
DescriptionHe has instructed the bank for two bills of exchange for the relief of the "starving Irish peasantry". Their community is small and far from wealthy so this is a made from private contributions collected from the congregation at St Johns and the other parishes, including from patients at the Lazareth leper hospital. He would be grateful if £5 could be forwarded to Reverend Henry De Willis of Portadown, as a particular offering from the school children of St Johns to those in Armagh.
