T. FARRELL Grimsby our <Battalion was to stop, when . 1 got hit an could not go any farther, so I| got a couple of the prisoners we had captured, to help me to the dresâ€" sing station, where 1 got fixeqd up and sent om to the casualty clearing station in the Ambulance. We were just there a few hours when we took the train for Boulogne, when we arâ€" rived at the â€" Australian â€" Hospital, here we stayed for almost a day, then taking the boat Hospital St. Patrick, from lhere to Dover and the channel was fairly rough. From Dover we took the train through London to Southport, some six hours ride, so felt rather. weary after the long journey, We arrived at the Hospital four o‘clock â€" Thursday |morning, and it certainly is a beautiâ€" ‘lful place. I am. in a bright, sunny ward and am well looked after. I ‘saw Archie Taylor, who used to be | in «Grimsby, he was billeted by . the \ second dressing station, so he hapâ€" }'pened to be passing when 1| arrived, so we had quite a chat. I must close now, I am feeling a little ibetter toâ€" lday, Now don‘t worry, I‘ll soon be alâ€" ‘right again.

I got off rather lucky indeed considerâ€" ing what we had to go through to get to ourâ€" oObjective, which. was some 1,200 yards, although it gseemed a lot farther, As the shell fire was something â€" terrific If you . can imagine what 1,350 batteries with four guns to a battery would sound like behind us, besides plenty of other things used. It was a sight I shall never forget for many a day. 1 was just within a few yards of where our ‘Battalion was to stop, when . I D LETTER FROM WILL COWAN TO; HIS SISTER | Dear Mother:â€" Just a few lines to let you‘ know how I am getting alo ng. | _ suppose you got my letter saving I hag been slightly wounded. Well I am getting alorg fine, I got out of bed toâ€"day for a while for the first time, so I don‘t think I am doing so badly at all ind I don‘t think it will be very lonyg before I will be as big and strong as ever again. I saw a lot of the old 98th. boys the Sunday afterâ€" noon before the big advance started they are looking fine, Norman Blanchard included. When I got to the dressing station on Monday after getting hit I â€"saw Archie Taylor who used to be in GRIMSBY, so we had quite a chat as ] was there for about an hour. He came over with a British Columâ€" bia Batt. I also saw two other felâ€" lows whom I knew, so spent that hour pretty ‘well. This is a beautifui bright, sunny day and quite warm. It‘s a beautiful place here where the Hospital is situated, you «an over look the large Golf Links. 1 don‘t think I could have got a nicer place, as this Hospital has but very few military restrictions attached to it compared to others. The imatron and nurses make it like home for us, as well as providâ€" ing plenty of entertainment for us. There are ten in our ward, five Cana dians and ‘five Imperials, so it is just a nice lot to ‘have in a room toâ€" gether and we certainly enjoy ourâ€" selves, too. Now mother, I hove jyou are not worrying as I am gettig on fine and will have a good rest for some little time. I hope you are all keeping well at least try to for a while anyway and see how it goes, I think it would do you good.

Well tlwrel was a lot to get ready for the mornâ€"| ing, bombs to get ready and each man _supplied with a certain number as to what part he was to take in the line of fire. The rifle men only carriedi two, and the rifle grenaders carried ten apiece. Of course being one of‘ them it fell to me to carry ten of them, and believe me it is some load{ ~too, going over shell holes and every thing that could get in â€" one‘s way. \Well, we got everytning in fine shape i and two of the cooks came up with us and after everything was ready they lhad a nice big dish of hot tea ready lfor us, and believe me it went down |\ good for it was a pretty cold night ‘ out. That done we tried to have a sleep, such as it was. 1 Well the time passed on and we were all resting nicely when all at Ionce at 5.30 a.m., guns opened up.} Such a noise, oh, oh! Well over they lwent, that is the boys that was to start the fun. Well about 6 o‘clock the ‘Huns started to come streaming in. ‘I mean prisoners of course. Well it 'l was laughable to see them, glad to be taken prisoners, believe me, as our l barrage was something awful. At 7.20 | our commanding officer came around ‘ with our rum,and told us to get ready | to go over the top at 7.30, and believe | me, we were all ready to. Over we all ‘.got and then a sharp command from ! our officer to advange and advance | we did, and not a stop, except for our | barrage to lift and then on again !without a hitch or a Hun to stop us . for they were all aâ€"running like a lot | of mice from a cat, but on and beâ€" lieve me, it wasn‘t well for those that did try to put up a scrap for they were either killed or taken prisoners. | ha! through the hip. Well, that didn‘t| ‘ do them, so they put over a bomb lin the shell hole where the three ofl us dropped out of the way of his maâ€" chine gun fire, and I am sorry to say] ‘the bomb killed the one pal of mine| | and wounded the other one. pretty| ‘ bad. Well for my share I got four| pieces in my left foot anda leg and five j pieces in my right leg and foot; also a bullet through my right chip, and three pieces in myY fight hand and | some small ones in thgnfa.ce, and â€" a | small piece in the left ‘eye which l bothers me at night 4 little, but !uck-l ily I can see all O.K. out of it, I just thought wh%e lying here in the hospital that I would try and tell you a little of my expcrience in the big.â€" push that us Canadians made on Monday morning the 9th of April. _ Edinburgh, Apri Dear Friends of GrimShY | _E.

Well, they carried me for about two miles} to a dressing station and arrivingi there the doctor had teft and gons to his dug out and when the stretcheri bearer went for him be wouldn‘t| come up and dress my wounds. So1 what did they do but let me lie out doors all that night, and believe me, it was some night too, snowed and rained all night.

The Clerk will write regarding one right away. incoln County has iet its contract for oil for the roads to the Crescent Oilâ€" Co. this year and the Company is willing to deliver oil to the town at the same rate. The County will not oil Main St. until late in the summer. A 5,000 gallon car will be ordered at once. At least seven or eight streets will be oiled. All residents who want their streets oiled will have to petiâ€" tion or same. Water ! Water ! Water ! While the oil question was being discussed, the street watering quesâ€" tion got mixed up with it. Complaint was made about the irregular manner in which Main St. has been sprinkled this Spring. Jt will be watered more regularly in the future as the merâ€" chants kicked very straenuously about the dust nuisance. The wagon will also sprinkle farther east and west along this street.

It would cost the town seven per cent. per annum or $28 a year to insure the team for $400. Pete Felker, the teamster, is not covered by the policy. The team will be insured. Firemen‘s Iosurance.

To insure the present brigade of a chief and 15 men would cost the town $48 a year. Nothing was done about the matter. "Every time I come to town, The boys start kicking my dog Around|" If the people living adjacent to the cemetery don‘t keep their dogs at home the superintendent of the cemeâ€" tery is going to "Start kicking their dogs around." For some time past the cemetery has been a sort of a play ground for eastâ€"end dogs and as a result of their playful antics a lot of flower beds and grass in the burying ground have been destroyed. A large number of wreaths on graves have also been damaged by the canines. The owners of these dogs are kindly asked to see that their puppies find another play grouna for their future romps.
