A GOOD WORK .
Whatever may be the faults of Freemasons , it cannot be laid to their charge that they are unwilling in general to aid any work that has for its object the spiritual or temporal well-being of their fellow-men . We shall , therefore , make no apology
for bringing before our readers the claims which a brother , the Eev . J . M . Vaughan , who is labouring in the East of London , has upon our sympathy and pecuniary assistance , should we be in a position to afford it . Bro . Vaughan ( as appears
from the prospectus which we append ) is curate in charge of St . John's District , in the parish of St . George ' s-in-the-East . Any one acquainted with that portion of the metropolis will be ready to re-echo the words of Mr . Cook , preacher of
Lincoln ' s Inn , who stated in a recently-published volume of sermons that the clergy who were toiling in the East of London year after year seemed to him to evince somewhat of the spirit of the early martyrs . Sincerely do we trust that
good will result from our publication of the Eev . Bro . Vaughan ' s "Voice from the East End of London . "
" The district of St . John is part of the large and necessitous parish of St . George ' s-in-the-East , and contains a population of 6 , 000 souls , chiefly poor . " It abounds with the children of dock labourers and others connected with the shipping and wharves of the Thames , of those employed in the
sugar refineries , of coal whippers , needlewomen ^ , & c , many of whom are growing up in ignorance and vice . There is no church or national suhool at present , but in consideration of the numbers unprovided for in spiritual things , the Committee
of the Bishop of London's Fund has secured a site for a school-church , and made the exceptional grant £ 1 , 200 towards the erection of the same ( estimated cost £ 1 , 500 ) . " A ragged school , with the assistance of tie
Earl of Shaftesbury , the Marquis of Westminster , the Eagged School Union , and other friends , was established in February , 1865 , at a cost of £ 300 . The school became so crowded after six months ., that it was found absolutely necessary to erect an
additional room for further accommodation ^ which is also full , although only opened on the 1 st of January last . Four hundred and fifty cMMven are being educated in these schools free of charge * " To raise the needful funds to settle the
builder's claim and extricate the school from debt , every exertion was made at Christmas last , but only half the required sum was subscribed , To meet this deficiency the present appeal is made , in the earnest hope that it may please the Giver
of every good and perfect gift to dispose the hearts of many of His children to help on , and that without delay , this work of faith and labour of love .
" One hundred pounds ( in addition to the further sum which is being expended on these appeals ) is urgently needed , and shall the success of the schools be crippled for want of this ? "Operations also consist of services ( Sundays
