Mafeking, 30 April 1900 Dear Mother Teresa, At the request of Mr. B. Weil I have great pleasure in handing you the enclosed 98.15 pounds, the proceeds of a raffle, got up for the benefit of the Sisters of Mercy. The mere money does not in any way represent adequately the lasting grattitude of the Community towards yourself and the Sisters, for the valuable self devoting services you have rendered to the sick and wounded in Hospital nor our sympathy for your losses and troubles, incident the Siege. Believe me, Yours very truly, R.S.S. Baden Powell |
