California Relief Fund

The liberal-hearted in Massachusetts still have over half a million—to be exact $549,980.01—in their fund for California sufferers; but they do not propose that it shall be handled the way a great deal of the charity fund is reported to have been. They propose that it shall not be given to boards or committees, but to the needy, and have therefore placed its dispensing in the hands of Mr. Jacob Furth of Seattle, and Col. Wm. D. Sohier of the Massachusetts Association. This will make nearly a full million collected by that Association, and presumably the latter sum will meet more of the need.
