The blessed of the Father He invites to an inheritance in the kingdom (contrast Gal. 5: 19-: 5:5; 1 Cor. 6:9, 10; ef, 2 Tim. 8; Jas, 2:5; Rev. 21:7). The inberitance of the kingdom is not something we earn, it is a gift (Lu, 12:32), This kingdom hss beenn PREPARED FOR US. Jesus gives a9 2 reason for inviting them to an in heritance in His kingdom the fact that they had ministered to Him in His need The whole destiny of man hangs on his faith, but the proof of faith is conduct (ef. Gal. 5:6 Jas. 2:17, 18). How glad we ought to be to give the thirsty Christ 'a drink when we think of the water He hss already given us (Jno, 4:14; 6:55) How glad we ought to be to give the bung. ry Christ to eat when we think of the bread He has given us (Jno. 6: 32, 35; How glad we ought clothe Him when na- ked (Ina. 64: 6; Rom. 3:13, 14; Phil, 9), visit Him when sick (Lu. 1: 68, 78), or in prison (Lu. 4: 18). It is deeply aig nificant that the righteous were not aware of the good deeds that they had been doing. the most acceptable righteousncas to God ix that which is free from self- consciousness, Jesus Christ £0 identifies Himeelf with His people that any act dona to them He regards as done to Himself (ef. Ac. 9:4, 51. Who Christ's brethren are we learn in ch. 12: 49, 50; 28:10; Heb. 2:11, If then we wish to feed Christ, we should feed them. If we wish to minic ter to Christ in any way, we should so minister to them. The real test whether or not we love Christ and love God 1s, do we love the brethren (1 Jno, 3: 14} 4:20', The real test whether we love our brethren is, do we minister to their need (1 Jno, 3:17), The one thing that shows '(ch. 18:5; 10:40) King."

Benson, son of Mra. John Benson, who left here some years ago for Kindersley, Sask. He enliet- ed with the 46th Bn. early in the war and over @ year ago was reported missing. Only recently bave his relatives learned particu- lars of the circumstances surrounding his death. A comrade writing to his mother said :-- *] did not actually see Fred killed, neith- er did Lowry, whose name and number I also mentioned, but in this sction--the breaking of the famous Drecourt-Queant switch line--the 46th lost very heavily, and it was the one and only time we had bayonet work. Fred was in C Company, Lowry and Tin D, C and D were in first move that day. A and B being in sup- port. We took our objective, Dury, and the wood beyond, in 55 minutes, but the 44th Bn.. which should have lesp-froy us at once. didn't turn up; in facf, to them we can ascribe the greater part of 'our loss, for they missed their 'assombly point" the night before and were some twenty hours late, and when things are worked out to the minute you can slightly grasp what that meant. We were driven back about 300 yards when orders were passed down for all C and D Company men to rendezvous to the left. We got there and though badly thinned out were told we must retake our positions--these were only shell holes, understand--and would go over the top again in four minutes, We did so and retook our positions, It was just after this, if I remember rightly, Lowry saw Fred running back and called to him. He came over and said all his section had been wiped out with a sbell but himself, and where was company headquarters, for he had te report to it; as near as possible he was directed and started out for it but nev- ler got there, and about two days later some of the burial party of which I was put in charge brought him in. I was busy at the time making crosses. I was able to do that much for everyone I buried, for an old Heinie shed was close by and I pulled the boards off, scraped them as clean a8 possible with a knife and inscribed them as under. ew, No, 255180 Pte, F, Benson. 46th Canadians.

I immed: intely went over und haven't the least doubt in saying it was, but as to whether or not I took his discs off I couldn't say, for I buried 58 in this one grave and under the circumstances one cannot remember any specific case. On completion of the work at this grave I put all the small bundles, tied and tagged, into a hand bag, and gave them to my officer, Lieut. Sneath, 46th Bn,, who just after went to the flying corps. He also noted in his book every man's name, number, battalion and com- pany, and in return passed his report to the Divisional, Burial Officer, who again passed it on to the Corps Burial Officer, and from there I think it went down to Le Havre.

In it, I have shown the grave Fred is in, and if you write the Record Office at Ottawa I am putting in the aquar- ed map location for you. All engagements were fought and everything done on this «squared map plan, #0 the location of the 106 grave is Dury Mup, P22, C.10, .25. When the ravages of war have been ree- tified the grave is in a beautiful location and I should say is in what has once been a walled garden belonging to the large ibroken down house to the left.
