MR. PAGE AND WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
AS we said last week, the letter signed by the Prime Minister and the ex-Prime Ministers and Lord Grey of Fallodon make it certain that we shall have a Page Memorial to testify our gratitude to the great American who helped us in our need. We also feel sure that one of the forms of that commemoration will be a Tablet in Westminster Abbey. That being so, we are most anxious to support the splendid effort made by the English-Speaking Union to raise the necessary funds. Mr. Wrench, the honorary secretary, has asked us to acknowledge week by week in the Spectator the contri- butions sent to him at the English-Speaking Union, Trafalgar Buildings, 1 Charing Cross, London, W.C. 2. Cheques, by the way, should be crossed "Page Memorial Fund." We are delighted to do this, and we shall also be delighted to receive and acknowledge donations from any of our readers who may prefer to send them direct to us. In the case of those who wrote to us sup- porting the scheme before the issue of the Premier's letter we shall, if permission is given us, note this fact in the donation list.
We still should like to see the small sum required for the Abbey Tablet voted by Parliament and so made a national gift, but the Scholarship, which demands a greater sum, ought properly to be obtained by subscription.
Donations received for the Page Memorial Fund are as follows :-
