Last. night I had one of the most pleasing times since I came back A letter was also received from Pte. J. L. Stedman, who enlisted from this ofllce with the 71st. Bat- talion. About ten months ago, he was wounded in France. and went to England for repairs. He is about all right, again, and expects to re;- turn to’ France shortly. He writes from N0. 1 Company, 5th Reserve Battalion. West .Sandling, England. He says in part: - ' Tell the Durham boys there is a place for them, to fill the vacancies calmed by their fallen comrades, and we don‘t know how $0011 we may follow them.” fl "There‘s no place like gmgid 01d Durham. That’s the place for me, and believe me, they can send me back just as soon as they like. Everything is going about the same; one time you think it will be over soon, and the next. time it looks just about. the same as usual, but it is bound to be over some day, and I feel just about as lucky as anybody else.” Pte.

It was dated June 2311!, the same day the former telegram was sent. It says: I haven’t come across any of the boys from Durham, yet it is possiâ€" ble to be fairly near one another and unless you can get away from duty to look them up, you may never find them. You need to know the location of the unit they belong to. Yours as ever, A. Smith.” "I have been down many of their dugâ€"nuts that weren't. smashed tor) badly. and found many dead Ger- mans in them. Wl'mt would it. be like in these that, were destmyed by a shell hitting the entrance? “All of the French peeple who are on the land are very old men, the young ones being either in the army or on war work. When one goes through some of the ruined towns and villags nearby and sees how they are smashed up, and to have seen the positions the Ger- mans held just after they were blown out. of them on April 9th, leaving thousands of their dead, you would say the ruined towns had their revenge. “The old saying about a cold win~ ter being followed by a hot summer is being borne out, as we have had many hot days this month. The crops are IOORng well along the roads and there is enough rain to make things grow well. There are no fences hlong the roads or m er the fields, and the penple tie their cattle \Vlth lung ropes when they put them on the grass. Mr. Andrew Smith writes an in. teresting letter to Mr. A. H. Jack- son, from somewhere in France, which we have pleasure in repro- dueing. After thanking him for candies and tobacco, he says: "Things have quieted down for a little While on this front of the line at present, and at night some- times when the guns are quiet it seems hard to realize there’s a war on.
