An Ostrich in Colootola

30-April-1908

Srijut Surendranath's organ is very anxious for union, we wish it were equally passionate for truth. The country has begun to speak out about the Convention and at Dhulia and Chittagong

The Bengalee seems to have received precisely the same telegram as we have received from Dhulia and it marks it as sent by its own correspondent.
