Referring to your kind offer this morning to inform our people in Erzroom of my despatch of funds for relief of the poor and needy, I find on consulting late communications from our people in Erzroom, that they are able to secure local money for payment here, I have therefore telegraphed our Dr. Case to draw on me for Lt. 250 of which Lt. 150 is for relief purposes. I enclose herewith a copy of the telegram which I am despatching to-day.
If you will kindly confirm this telegram through your Consul it will be deeply appreciated by us all.
Thanking you for your kindness in this matter, I am, Sir,
Yours faithfully,
W. W. Peet
Treasurer.
Our wire to Erzroom sent this day reads as follows:
