Gives Details of Enemy‘s Capture of South End Soldier Some weeks ago there was the report that Pte. Maxwell Smith of the Alâ€" gonquins overseas was after an engagement, but there was every confidence from the circumstances that he would turn up safely, Ekely as a prisonerâ€"ofâ€"war. Word later from other members of his regiment confirmed this view, and a let‘er received by the missing soldier‘s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Maxwell Smith of South Porcuping, gives details that make it almost cer«= tain that he was among the prisoner‘s taken by the enemy. Before it was known that he was missing a parcel. had been prepared for him and inâ€" structions were sent oversehas to give this parcel to Pte,. Lone, another‘South. Porcupine hero. In the meantime, howâ€" ever, Pte. Lone was killed in action, and the© Medical Sergeant of the, Visitor for the day was Flying Offic« er P. J. Bryan, of No. 1 training Com« mand, R,C,A,F,, Toronto. O. E. Walli was the winher of the weekly war savings draw. Medical Sergt. of Algonquins Writes of Heroism of "‘Maxie‘"‘ Smith Company divided the Christmas parcel* among the stretcherâ€"bearers who were the friends . and admirers Oof the lad they called "Maxie". In writing to ex« plain this, Medical Sergt. R. Sammgn gives some details of what happened before, Pte. Maxwell Smith was listed as missing. "The date that he mention« ed to you in his last letter, "writes the Sergeant, "was a day in which he did: a wonderful piece of work aAmong our allies, the troops of the Polish forces over here. He, alone, brought in 36 prisoners, along with an ambulance of Polish woundedâ€"a feat that we hope some day that Polanda will recognize in the right manner fitting only to suc.h an‘act as ‘this.

He was with us until a very short time ago, but I am sorry. to say : that he was one of Canada‘s sons destined to pay the supreme sacrifice. He was killed in action. I was present . at his funcral a few days ago, and 1 am sure that you people back tehre kndw our feéelings when a good com= : rade that you have soldiered with for four years is laid to his last rest.

It Ehall never be forgotten as an act of heroism, of which few can boast. 1 am sure that somewhere, soméplace, your son is safé, and we . hope and pray Sergeant Sammon in his léttér tells of working with Pte Smith in Canada, Newfoundland, England, France and Belgium, and finding the young man from South Porcupine one of the finest.
