TO ORDER OF NUNS. Mrs. G. H. Lanman Says Statements Have Done Her and the Church In- justice. New a letter to the York, May 11 Ir New York World formerly of Norwich, writes to contra- dict certain sensatioral reports {! have lately appeared about her in N York papers. She writes as follows Asks for Justice. To the Editor of the World: Sir: I am troubled by the sensational and largely untrue articles about me which are being printed in certain newspapers, and 1 feel that the time has come when for the honor of the the saintly Order of Marie Reparatrice and for my own sake I must pubiicly deny these untrue and sensational stories, and I am sure that the World, which is ever on the side of justice, will print my letter in its columns. These stories should have Jeen de- ago, but I from New York, and I &id not think that anyone would attach much impor- tance to these fairy tales so palpably untrue to those Who knew me wil.

These newspapers say that I have given a million dollars to the church and to the Order of Marie Reparatrice. This is absolutely untrue.

This club prospered exceedingly and my heart was in it. When I met with financial losses I sold my home and went to live at this club., Later I sold my personal beiongings for its benefit and begged for help to continue the club and keep my girls together. I overestimated my physical sirensth, and in 1911, when I came to New York for Christmas, I was not strong enough to go back to my work, and had to leave my poor “children” to zet on as best they could without my help. I am very proud of these girls. By their own efforts they have kept up their club and paid per cent. of its indebtedness. 1 wish I had a thousand dollars to give them!
