Illinois Staats-Zeitung, June 26, 1872
The Chicago Bohemians resolved in a meeting to collect money for the support of their countrymen in Bohemia, who lost all they had through a terrible inundation during May 25th to 28th, and to forward it to the Aid Committee in Prague. At the meeting, immediately, about $250.00 was collected. An Aid Committee was formed consisting of:
Cenek Duras, President
