SINGLE-HANDED AND UNARMBD CAPTURES SEVEN RUNS (Owen Sound Sun.) It is said that curiosity has killed many a person, but the following letter from Pte. James McDonald is about the first record case of our- iosity having been mainly responâ€" sible for the capture of seven Ger- mans lurking in a deep under- ground dugout. It was an experi- ence that reads like the stories of Robert Louis Stevenson and the imodest hero of the afiair dwells lit- ltle on his part of the exploit. He makes light of it in his recital while in reality his ready wit saved him; from what might have been a very serious situation. The letter is in- terestingly written and shows the indomitable spirit of the Canadian soldier. Pte. McDonald was with the first contingent, and was twice wounded and at the time of writ- : ing the letter on April 19th, he was ' looking forward to returning to his lunit. He is a son of Mr. and Mrs. ,McDonald of Cruickshank, and the letter was written to his cousin, Mrs. W. .l. Cruickshank, of Park lHead. The letter is in part: I. l “Received your most welcome let-‘ ter telling about the parcel, but I‘m afraid I will not be there to‘ enjoy that one. The Germans shell- ed my happy home (a rubber sheet‘ stretched across a ditch with some underbrush beneath to keep me out of the mud). They dropped a high explosive shell too close to be comâ€" fortable, so I made tracks not many yards apart, down the shallow trench, looking for a deep place to take cover in, but I did not make it in time. A huge iron foundry and chemical store, combined, passed over my head and exploded about five yards away. I turned 'four or five somersaults and found myself sitting on the side of the ditch with a very small piece of shell casing in my right thigh. I left the ditch and made for the dressing station. Be- lieve me, that sick leg of mine did some fine work going there. Any one seeing me pass would think I was training for the Olympic games and races. I am now in the hospi- tal, expecting to get kicked out any minute and sent back to my unit. so serious is my wound. I had a very thrilling adventure the other day, over which I nearly took a fit, when the Canadians stormed Vimy Ridge. I was detail- ed the night before to act as stret- cher-bearer, following our men up and carrying in the wounded. The battle was nearing its close, and I could not find any more wounded around. and happened to spy a deep German dugout in a trench in front of me and my curiosity got the best The readers of this paper will be; pleased to learn that there is at] least one dreaded disease that sci-: ence has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is catarrh. Ga- tarrh being greatly influenced by mmstitutional conditions requires constitutional treatment.

All I had at the time was al water-bottle, ' no battle-arms, but down I went. When I had des- cended about 35 feet it got rather dark. so I stopped and lit a candle, to find I was about ten feet from the bottom. At the same time, I heard voices below; listening, I found it was foreign languageâ€"my heart started stumping down in the bot- tom of my bread basketâ€"I looked around for something to do battle with. but could see nothing, so with what little breath I had left, I called: "Come on down boys. there is some one below.“ I then told them to come out. One answered, “'I‘Kametad and I ansueied, “Yes: \wlcome. Ix'annr”a<_l , and sewn of them came out with hands above their heads. One asked if they could go down and take some ra-‘ lions with them, and down the eight of us went. They packed a haversaek full of eats, then two of them held candles While I turned the dugout upside down, looking for souvenirs. I got a little revol- ver and a dagger. Just as we came out, there was a. squad of German prisoners going out under escort. so I turned them over to the escort and kept my curiosity to myself lfor the remainder of the day.
