Pepplatt's Niece Writes-- She Saw the Zeppelin As It, Probably the best description of the Zeppelin raids on London that | day from England, accompanied by! has yet been received was written to | B. 8. M. Peppiatt, R. C. H. A., | September. 11th by his niece in Lon- don, The letter tells the story in a graphic manner, and reads as fol- lows! "I have only just written to you, but I again, because since then we: have had a terrible air raid in London. | What I am going to tell you is what I actually saw myself. "It was, about, as near as I can re- | member, 10.45 p.m. Wednesday. J---- and I, who had been to see (Some friends, off, and were standing | on. the corner qf Tottenham Court ! and Austin Road, when there was a terrific explosion. Before we could | realize what it was, ali the guns were {going to warn the people. The po- lice were running everywhere, shout- ing out: 'Lights out.' One poliee- man was rather too excited, and shouted: 'Put your d---- lights out.' "Directly the first bomb was drop- ped, up went the searchlights, and they seemed to pounce on the Zep- pelin directly. There was the great {ugly thing in the sky. I'll admit it {was glorfous. , It looked "just like ithe photos that yow have seen of | them, As soon as the searchlights | were on it (and give our men their | due, they styck to it), | though it was beautifully lighted up Then from all directions it i} | was being fired at, but then it could {not be touched, It just went along tas slowly, and they must have taken it just as a matter of course. They stood it as long as they possibly | could, and then making a cloud of their own -they got away. { "The papers say it was in the Lon- don districts that the raid was, but ij | sorry to say it was not so. It was right in the heart of London. Lea- | ther Lane is almost to the ground, |} | and serious damage was done in the Red Lion street, Wood street, Theo- {bald's Road, Liverpool street, Broad | street, and only just escaped the | General Post Office and St. Paul's, { Ome fire which broke out on Wood | street lit up the sky for miles around if | for more than three hours. After #| the Zeppelin left the city, it went | right over Camden and Kentish town '§ | and Golden Green, and then made its | way back quite safely. Thirteen {people were killed outright in one | motor bus which was struck. Fa was a wonderful sight, but I do not want to see it again. "Thursday night the Zeppelins got as far as Cromer, but were driven back. The guns T can hear now. They rattle something awful. Par- liament Hill Gun a couple of times nearly hit it. Never did we think that when the gun was bit on the heath it would ever be needled."

No under-water craft was sighted. Rrof. Codd has been summering at his home at Cardiff, and told the Whig that although the war is keen- ly felt, everything has been reduced to a system, and transportation and such conveniences that were more or . less demoralized at first are now working normally, The Zeppelin raids cause a vague fear among the people, but there is really little of exeitment. On the trip to Canada thé Scan- | dinavian had on board over 100 in- valided soldiers, and a number of survivors of the Hesperian disaster. The latter were extremely nervous in the submarine zone, having had one thrilling experience, but the remain. der of the passengers did not seem to The steamship took course around the north of Ireland.

The - above resolution, moved by Ald. Nickle, wep unanimously pass- | ed by the CityfCouncil at its meet- | ing on Monday night. i Ald. Nickle spoke strongly about the city giving employment to able] bodied men who had not even volun- teered for home duty. It was not thet, he claimed. Kingston soldiers, who, had done their "bit" at the front, were returning, and one or two of them had made application to him to try and find them employment. Ald. Gardiner, who is Assistant Director of Medical Services for the 3rd Divisional Area, stated that some of the returning soldiers would be under pay for some time, as they had not been discharged. When the time of their discharge arrived, they be thrown on their qwn resources. He thought the move made by Ald, Nickle a good one. | for the Empire and were returning home through wounds and illness. Ald! Gardiner also advised that the Council work in conjunction with the Aid Committee of the city. Ald. Nickle added to his resolution rowered to consult with the Aid Com- mittee and do whatever it deemed should -be done. A NEW PAPER ISSUED. ---- A To Oppose Presbyterian Entry Into Church Union.
