Contributions are to be sent to the Receiving Depot, No. 2 Great Jones

acknowledged by the proper committee.
It is particularly requested that each contribution be plainly marked

that each article be accompanied by a memorandum of its value.

the Treasurer, to whose order all checks should be made payable.

that is determinable.
