Mrs. Leng, widow of John Henry Leng; was engaged in conversation with Rey. Dr. D. Bruce Gordon, minister of New Liskeard United Church, when she was stricken. Dr. Gordon, whe had been making a pastoral call went for help to the home of Mrs Aubrey Jones, a granddaughter of Mrs. Leng living a few steps away, but by the time they returned Mrs. Leng was dead. She was in her 78th year. The funeral was held on Monday afternoon from the home of Mrs. Jones | jand many old-timers who had known the family for years, were present to pay their last respects-to this pioneer of Temiskaming. The funeral services were conducted by Dr. Gordon, assist- ed by Rev. D. A. Timpany, pastor of New Liskeard Baptist Church. Burial was made in the cemetery there, part of which also was included in her fa- mily's original holdings.

They are all eujoy- jing their new experiences, but seem to jbe a bit lonesome at times, and as sev- jeral of them expressed it, "a parcel |from Haileybury looks pretty good.' Sapper A. V. Coe writes, "I love the socks you sent me, and will you please Red Cross Notes ask the persons who enclose their ad-} |dresses to write a little more plainly? Sometimes the fellows can't make them cut without a great deal of trouble." Arthur Gauthier says "thanks a mil- lion," and Ted Sutherland tells us "you just can't get good socks like these out here, and, "I like the Navy very n:uch but have not yet had a chance to go to sea. But here's hoping." From Jack Sutheran's letter we quote, "It is a very }great treat to get a box from home. It was good of you to remember me again this year. We are all liking it very well in England now. What is it like over there? Cold, I bet", and with Howard Coe's note of thanks (the first to reach us) he wishes us all many, many happy Christmases and New Years, and con- ciudes "It was swell of you to think of me, and Cheerio for now." 4th Field Park Sqn., R.C.E. 5th Canadian Armored Div'n Canadian Army Overseas 15th December, 1942 Dear Mrs. Pickard: Please thank the members of the | Haileybury Red Cross for the splendid Christmas parcel they sent to me.
