IF IGEN MACDONELL SPEAKS { | Before the Sydenham Street Methodist Church Epworth League on War Events. Major-General Sir A. C. Macdon: K.C.B., C.MG., DS.O.,, com i! of the Royal Military College, ad- |= dressed a large gathering in the! bible school hall of Sydenham street: == Methodist chiirch on Monday even- | ing. The meeting was in charge of | the literary committee of the Ep- | worth League. General Maodonell, who commanded the first division in France, told of many interesting things which tpok place during the time he served with the First Cans dian Division. Commencing with the arrival of the Canadians at Valcartier camp in August, 1914, the general traced many of the jmportant incidents which took place from that date un- til the battalion was demobilized in 1919, He said that the Canadians, who were at Salsbury Plains in Eng- land, in training to go to France, would never forget the days spent in, that muddy camp. He also paid a tri- bute to General Alderson, who was placed in command of the Canadians there, and later went to France with the First Division. Gen. Macdonell related many of the amusing incidents which had ta- ken place guring his stay in France. The general also took otcasion to pay his respects tao Lieut.-General Sir Arthur Currie, who commanded the Canadian Corps in France. It was in the early battles that General Currie showed his worth as a soldier, Gene- | ral Macdonell remarked. Speaking of some of the achievements made by Canadians, he said that the First Ca- nadian Division were the first a in France to introduce trench raid- ing, which later proved so successful. To Brig.-Gen. A. E. Ross, he gave the credit of being the first medical man to introduce treatment for "trench feet," which was playing such havoc with the army. Prof. Andrew Mc- | Naughton of McGill. University, who is well known to Kingstonians, was credited by General Macdonell with being the man who perfected the ar- tillery barrage. When speaking about German pri- soners who had been captured by | Canadians, and especially by the units of which he had the honor to com- |mand, the general told of many in- | |teresting talks he had had with Ger- man officer prisoners. In one case, General Macdonell said that the offi- cial documents taken off a German officer of high command stated that the Germans were opposed in this sector by the greatest soldiers in the world, the Canadians. This docu- ment told the German soldier" that there were no deserters among Can- adians, and all were fighters and would never give up. In concluding his address, General Macdonell stated that it was hard for people at home to understand how trying the days were after the armis- tice wag signed, and especially after they arrived in England. A Few people at home have any idea how the men must have felt, when one night they would be all packed up and told that they would be leaving for Canada the following morning, and to wake up and find this order was cancelled for reasons unknown, As much as he tried, he was unable to find why these cancellations took place. In spite of this disappointment he was pleased to state that he never had occasion to summon a court martial while the men were in England. 'Rev. W. T. G.
