A balance of $521.64 was sent to the General Headquarters of the I. W.
W. and this, with $581.36 which remained in the General Office from the
sale of voluntary assessment stamps, was set aside as a fund to be used
for the maintenance of Harry Golden, Joseph Ghilezano and Albert
Scribner, three of the boys who were seriously injured on the Verona.

The financial report was audited by E. G. Shorrock and Co., certified
accountants, and by a committee composed of Harry Feinberg and J. H.
Beyer, representing the prisoners, C. H. Rice, representing the Seattle
unions of the I. W. W., and General Executive Board member, Richard
Brazier, representing the General Headquarters of the I. W. W. The
statement made to contributors to the fund concluded with these
expressive words:

"On behalf of the defendants, and the Industrial Workers of the World,
we take this opportunity to express our grateful appreciation to all
contributors, and to all the brave men and women who assisted us so
nobly in this great struggle to save seventy-three workingmen from a
living death at the hands of the Lumber Trust and the allied commercial
bodies of the Pacific Coast.

"It was the solidarity of the working class, and that alone, which
brought about this great victory for labor, so let us turn fresh from
victory, with determined hearts and unquellable spirit to unflinchingly
continue the struggle for the liberation of all prisoners of the class
war, remembering always that greatest expression of solidarity, 'An
injury to one, is an injury to all.'
