Africa, } May 28th, 1900. My Dear Sls*er:-â€"Yes‘erdsy was the first word I hsVe received from home ‘stuce I started from Halifax and although i“, was written a long time ago, still I was very glad to get word from home. We‘ _ have been moving about so much from i one place to another slnce landing in Africa, that it: has been impossible for our mail to keep up with as. I got six 3 letters, one from Edith and some more Bethany people, I thin]; the last time I ”wrote wesln Bnlowayo just: before we lleft. That is what happened Mr. J. N. Moffatt of Valentin. Well as you know, every important event has taken place since then, but probeb‘y you do not. know that I was one of the 64 Cmediene who took part in the action which resulted in the reii~f of Mafeking. After leaving Buio «aye we unveiled by train about: 460 miles to a poin‘, Atteie. beyond which it was then thought: dangerous to travel but which in now as safe as the Otkwood road Hare we detraiued and loaded our baggage. ammunition etc. on bullock wagons.

Piummer’s camp some An 50 miles distant. our drivers and one T1“ section of our battery, numbers three and I it four guns, had not arrived in Bulowayo, A: but we had along with us 100 men of the I Queensland mounted rifles. On Monday 3;" 14th lust. we arrived at Piummer’s camp .1 Ti: and were heartily welcomed as the , soldiers there encamped had been for 1 I about seven months trying to relieve “‘ Mafeking, but had been handicapped by E the want of large guns such as we had with us. On the same day we continued t our journey, lead by Col. Plummer with ‘ ab»ut 800 mounted men. We marched ' all night, and on Tuesday morning joined a southern column under Col. Mahon, making our total strength about 2 800 D with ten 12-pound guns, a mountain even-pounders andapom- pom. or one pound maxim. li On Wednesday morning at 6 a.m. we 0 left our temporary camp for Msfeking. in Our line of march was thoroughly scouted so that we did not make very quick time.

At six we marched out about a mile and in less than 30 minutes our guns shelled the Boers from their main laager at Mafeking, which commanded the water supply of the town. Then we marched back to the town where we re.- mained until Saturday morning. 0n the day after our arrival we were visited by Col.
