The following communication has been received from the press corres- Poa camp with the R:M.C. Field Force: "Kingston Mills Tuesday, June 8, 1920. : "Headquarters yesterday morning received orders to send reinforce- meff?s to Washburn, which has lately been threatened with envelopment by Force to be despatched as quickly as possible. It marched off at 9 a.m. under the command of B.S. M. Adami, who was acting O.C. of the Field Force. Shortly after 1 p.m. the of- ficer -coMimanding- 'the .. advanced guard, informed the officer com- manding that he was held up at the cross roads at "'C 36 C 88" and mes- sages received reported that the en- emy appeared to ,be in force. He asked for reinforcements to enable the advance guard to brush aside the oppositioh met with along the Wash-, burn road. Heavy fighting ensued, and in spite of the gallant efforts of the field force, it was found that the left flank was in serious danger of envelopment. Further reinforce- ments were sent up from the main body to protect this flank. "There was further heavy fighting and it became é¢vident that the en- emy was much superior to our own force. The O.C. determined to carry out his instructions if possible and decided to make a retirement through Kingston Mills and endeavor to reach Washburn, via the Barrie- field road. An orderly retirement was effected in spite of heavy firing from enemy machine guns. The cas- ualties were heavy, but the greatest gallantry was displayed throughout. Two important accidents marked the retirement. A prominent young of- ficed well known to Kingston citizens, was captured, with all of his section. In addition to this one platoon that had been rather bunched on the bridge C 29 C 70 was decimated by machine gun fire. A strong defen- sive position was taken up in the vi- cinity of Kingston Mills, on to which the retiring force held back. As night was approaching outposts were post- ed and the force bivouacked near the cross roads at D 33 C Central. Ia spite of heavy marching and hard fighting throughout the day morale of the men was as high as ever and the night passed without incident." ------------------ NCOENTS OF THE DAY | LOCAL NOTES AND ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST, Happenings in the City and Vreinity ~~What the Merchants Ofter te the Readers of the Whig.
