FR ERNEST SIITER | IS HOME AGAIN, He Was Taken Prisoner--Shot Through the Leég« in Airplane and Forced to Descend, we Although limping with the aid of two canes, Flight-Lieut. Ernest Sit ter alighted from the fast train from the east at the Duter G.T.R. station on Wednesday afternoon, with the same ¢ld sunny smile that used fo beam when Queen's scored a touch- down in the football days before the war. He was met. by his father, Principal E. O, Sliter. Flight-Lieut, Sliter enlisted as a sapper with Queen's Engineers while a student at the university, October, 1914. He left for overseas at the end of the college term and served in France until he transferred to the Royal Air Force over a year ago. On July 3rd, 1917, after a thrilling duel in the air , he was shot through the legs and was forced to descend behind the Germax limes. It was thought for a time thereafter that het'was missing, but after several weeks of anxiety his parents were assured that although he was serl- ously wounded in a German hospital his ultimate recovery was cemain, In the latter part of May of this year he was transferred to England by way of Holland, where he awaited transportation across the ocean, Flight-Commander Douglas Nié- kle, son of W, F. Nickle, M.P., accom- panied Lieut. Sliter and he has de- veloped into a strapping lad. Both of the boys were glad to get back to their home city and see the faces of their friends once more. "Doug" Nickle was one of Kingston's best %nown youths when he received his commission in the Forestry Corps in the summer of 1916. After several months' service with that unt in England he was taken on the strength of the Royal Air Force and while taking his course of instruction last winter he was severely burned. His machine collided with another in midair and in the crash he fell with his plang, sustaining severe in- juries. He is home on furlough.
