difficulty. On Account of a Zeppelin
raid there were no trains from Loudon
and there was no news whatever on
account of the wiles being down.
We spent the night in Stafford sta-
tion. Gilmour and Mr. Scutt slept to
some considerable extent, but 1 didn't
dare go to Bleep for teat our traits

he woke up I was either going out or
coming in. There was s grate flee f•

whether we'd better give up our trip
or not. About 8 o'clock we got a train
to Crewe, whose we got off. and atter
waiting an hour in pulled the Irish
mail; This is -a big long "corridor'

Kingstown, the port of Dublin, about
4 o'clock.'
I forgot to tell you another misfor-
tune. Of course we have to empty all
petrol out of our tanks beton they
will allow the machines on the boat.
Well, Gilmour had a little in his tank
and was turned back at the boat to
etupty it. He got back to the boat just
as *be was pulling out. 8o be said be

journey. I might mention here that
rish miles are longer that: English
miles.
I arrived in Dublin st ten minutes
to 8. See minutes atter the boat thin
bad left for Kingstown. 8o I dashed
alowg to Kingstown. I couldn't go
very fast. because I hadn't a light.
Here I was without a license and with-
out a light. However, we showed the
policemen the O. H. M. 8. o0 our musl-
in front and it was all right.

late for the boat.

have a marvellous accent. 1 would
ask directions and the policeman
would rattle off something sod 1
would look intelligent and continue
my journey. He would say.FoUow
Car tracks and they w1ltake you
right to the pier. Tbaa in a block or
two I'd find the tracks branching off
in two or three different directions.
A policemen at the pier told me I
could go on the boat which was wait-
ing for the morning. So I did so ;
stowed away my bike and got a berth.
i concluded the other boys had caught
the other boat all right. I bad a salt
water bath on the boat and rolled in,
atter RIO miles through Ireland. Next
morning 1 was eating breakfast and
talkies to an Irish officer who bad
been in the trenches eight months.
when- in strolled Roy. They bad ar-
rived in Dublin late the night before
and slept at a hotel. It was too ball
