The follo*iug very interesting letter j | hvs been received by his brrther, Bert, I | fron Mr. Wells Whittaker, who has been attached to No. 5 stationary hospital, C. E. F.. London, E- gland, under date cf July 14 : We are still at Shornclilfe, but may leave for the Dardanelles any time. Onr boys are all fine except one, whu is in the hospital, but he will soon be with us again. The hospital is situated on an ex- ceptionally high tracr of land, and it is well for us, otherwise we would find our- selves fioating into th-; ravine, as the I weather has been very showery. I oiiicb prefer the climate of Ontario. It i* not nearly so changeable. We have over four hundred patients at present, and that makes so much admitting and dis- charging that I assure you our crowd is kept busy. The commanding othoer has au auto, also C-<p'a:n Piul. There are three saddle horses and the newsboy has a bicycle, so you see we have some means of transportation. At first we had onl} accommodation for 240 patiente, conse- '{ueutly 100 were transferred to New- castle. There was an escoit sent along, and I happened to be " Lucky Jim.'' I thought wlien I was so far north it would be a shame to miss seeing Edinburgh, so I asked for a few days' furlough, which was griuted .Xfter spending the night in Newcastle I wended my way to Ediu- turgh. Newcastle is ((uite a large ciry. I did not spend much time there excei>t to go down to the Tyne, engag-:d a ferry and by crossing the river I was able to ob- serve the great man of-war ." Cansda." It is the lar){tsc British gunboat on the water a*, present, and !« going to the Dardanelles to relieve tbe " t,)ueen Eliz- abeth. ' Ediiibunih is obp of the most beautiful citien I have ever teen. I visited many places of interest there, such ;wj Holyrood Palace, ait galleries, museum, university buildings and the great old castle which is so strongly fortified. U was in this castle Mary t,>ueen of Scots lived, and James II. wss born. I might enumerate many other places of interest but I have not tbe time. I took a puHman and went to see the sreat bridge, four miUs long, across the Frith >'f Forth. It was some sight. There were about .sixty war ships lying in the river below the bridge, entirely closed with mines. Ou this particular trip I had a very compe- tent guide and enjoyed the outing very much. Not being content to return from Eiiuburgh, I went to Glasgow. Ic is not nearly so tnsautifula city as Edin- burgh, but far more business like, aud is almost as crowded :»s Toronto at exhil i' tinn time. While there I went to see the dry d*ck and harbor, which is 31 miles long. I crossed the Clyde river. While there a large boat arrived fiora India. The crew consisted of natives from Calcutta. I spent some time look- ing over the machine guns, torftedo boats, etc. .\nd last, but not leas', I must mention those Highland lassies. They are rare good lookers, fair coiu- plexioned with dark hair. To day there was a muster parade of aU the troops, 2&,O)0. To-morrow we are ^o\m% to be inspected by Premier Borden and Colonel Sam Hughes. You can iiu.agine how much we enjoy this, standii'g for about four houis to have someouo merely glance at you. The fighting is not so strenuous lately. We seem quite safe here, although we are only forty miles from the trencher. I see ro.any of the soldiers from the fnnt and believe uie. tbeir nerves are b:u)ly shaken. I will close now, hopiu,? you are a' I well. I would like to drop in aud have OBo meal at least.
