The Famine in India by Justine Abbott of Bombay
A sobering appeal on the Indian famine, detailing sixty million affected and ten million at risk, with relief efforts led by the British government, missionaries, and American committees. It urges private charity, outlines coordination through the Committee of One Hundred, and champions two cents a day as a life-saving contribution.
