At three (this morning we let the pilot of! and later passed the watery grave of the Titanic. We had- religious service at eleven o’clock ’on the main «deck. At seven thirty there was a gathering in the dining ,room and a few hymns were sung and a solo by a gifted sing- er. We passed the last point of. New Brunswick about 5.40. There have been 'no cases of sea sickness Lights out at 9 pm. Monday, October 18th Reveille at 6 o’clock. The wear ther looks promising.

Revielle came at 6.45 and breakfast was then served The feeding of this huge horde of men cannot be so easily :done as on camp ground. Some of the boys :don’t like the idea of waiting but when we get on the . ocean breakfast will be one of the last things on our minds. 'We are meeting many steamers, mostly freight. Our ship stopped at Que- bec and allowed a tug-boat to come alongside and take the mail. It is a fine night and.- there is an ocean like breeze in the atmos~ phere There was no parade to- day except for the quarter guard, which we all get in turns Lights ou-t'at19 .ptm, Boys are feeling good and they spent the evening in games supplied them Sunday, Oct 17th. Morning is fine and bright, and we are proceeding at a lgOUd speed between New Brunswich. and We landed in Toronto about 10 1-5 and headed by our brass, bag-pipe and bugle bands we marched to the two trains awaiting at Union Station We did not move till 1'2. 9 o’clock, so it gave us time to bid farewell to those who were dear to 3' us. There were many heart-rend- :ing scenes there too, among mm rhea-s. wives and sweethearts Well the trains proceeded on their journey and with only about four stOps all the way to Montreal ' We arrived there about eleu'en p m., and were on board about 12. but as there was a great quantityI of our own freight to handle Some of us were formed into a fatigue party, and it was 2 a. m. before we got to bed. It was im- possible to provide beds so we ‘made ourselves at home on tho floor. Well we are on the steamer now, a magnificient vessel of 14,000 tons of the 'C. P. [R. line, the S. S. Metagama, and we are con- sidering ourselves lucky as “‘5 travel as class passengers on a passenger boat and not on a troop ship. I must retire now for a few hours sleep which I nee-d very much. After we were aboard the grand old 8. S. Cayuga whistled, and at eight o’clock she pulled. out, and ac. we moved very slowly away from the deck the cheers again started sounded from the water like a huge number of savages. Ordo '3 being restored the bands on shore played some patriotic select- ions, and‘ as the .Cayuga proceeded down the river the band of the 35 th from the stern played in slow strains, “God be with you till we meet again.” At the end of the second verse we were quite a way out, and compliments from shore were very indistinct, and it was necessary to :direct our atten- tion to a. more northerly direction and it was good-bye to our ‘Cana- .iian brothers whom we hope to meet in Berlin, Germany The cheers of a battalion of in- infantry, and three batteries of artillery all lined up from the cam» across many acres of par-air}: grouni were by no means quiet ones, and such a reception was very encouraging to us bOys going to the war. I am thinking if Kai- ser Bill was to hear that he would throw down arms right away. LETTERS FROM THE ! BOYS IN KHAKI qua. A SOLDIEE’S DIARY Hall’s Fa'mily Pins“ for COnstipat- ion.

Revielle at six and all other parades at usual hours. At nine o’clock we met a freighter westward bound and two others during the day, but at a great distance off. At noon the steamer took a number of circles round in the water, and allowed our machine guns on deck as well as a few rifles to :60 target prac- tice on a few barrels which were thrown out for the purpose. All is in darkness to‘ night and all port holes below are covered with can- vas. The whole talk is submarines but no one seems very much dis- turbed and games continue as uS- ual. During the afternoon we ran into a shoal of dolphins, and immediately the sea was teaming with them, leaping out of the wa- ter and racing with. the boat. Sunday, October 24th Morning opens up fine with a stiff breeze. I think some spent a sleepless night, expecting a. torpedo to come peeking in the window at them. 'But I don’t; The enthusiasm among the boys is much brighter, and another concert is being made up for to night. Friday October 22nd Weather some What calmer, tlm’ ship rolls heavily.

At time of ‘writing she is reported slightlv better, and We hope she mav con- } tinue so. Mrs. E. J. Davis returned home after spending a couple of weeks with her sick mother, Mrs. McFar- lane.

At eleven there was church service, then edin- ;ner, but many eyes are glued to the guntboat, which reminds one of a canoe beside the gigantic li-l .ner. I believe we are in the Eng-l glish Channel and probably bound! for Plymouth where I think we y will land- during the. night. Monday, October 25th Well we landed in [Plymouth this; morning. Reveille sounded at‘ five and breakfast at five-thirty..' The packing was a small affair. The harbor seems full of war ves- sels, three of which escorted us 'aduring the night. We left for the I . . shore in small vessels as the liner. Pcannot go into the dock. As the, :boats pulled away the band played Auld Lang Syn-e. After waiting a few houes we entrained at two o’clock. The enthusiasm is higher here than in Canada. Every one was out to welcome us. We must have taken a very round about way to our destination as we were eight hours getting there. We had a two hours march, but it was a pleasure after being hampered up so long. Well we are stationed in Liphook. How long we will ne here it is hard to say. As we passed through Exeter the 'mayor- . ess was there with tea to fill our water bottles and a lunch- fOr each man. Our camp looks like a city of huts. The roads here are all concrete. The weather is cold. W'o are about one and a half hours run from London. I must draw my; narrative to a close with my. kindest regards to all. ' I remain yours respectively. .
