Mr, Sin- clair did not know, or overlooked the Salt, that bees fly from three to tour miles and if bees can be proved a "nuisance" that then people "in the country" have rights to be observed as well as his own. I think it would be a difficult matter to find a plane either in Grey or Morris where they would be three miles from any reeidenoe aid judg- ing from the number of Boer' out in !Ruth Africa I .question that even Mr.. Sinclair could died a spot down there where they could be placed this dista080 from guy dwelling.

As I wrote in the last letter we were about to leave for Angeles and left on Nov. 7 and 8 days laterI was again taken Mak bat did not let the disease get snch a hold of me as it had before whew I went to .the hospital. On the 11th along with 180 others who were in the Same division field hospital we were sent in here for treatment and on the 23rd I was again returned to duty and I'm glad that I've been o. k. ever e1aoe. I was helping lay track where the inenrreetare had torn it Hp and, If I say it myself, I materially ha -taped its completion for I was the only one of all the engineer troops any way familiar. with that kind of work, bat unfortunately for those who are oompalled to•ride on it the line i0 not straight nor ie the surface level, largely due to the haste and ignorance of the one who was in charge of the work, bot I'll risk my month's wages that anywhere I was in the lob the gunge is true. Oa Deo, let 1 was not tip to Tarlac to load rails to take the pietas of those torn 0p. For - 1009.101y for us the rails were put in a plaoe convenient to the railway but in- convenient as regards' faollitie9 for paw ing trains, viz., right at a one half mile washout and on a single track. All triune with trainmen and'snbsiotenoe stores had to get as close to the washout as possible in order to have the goods transported over a temporary bridge on a light rail• way, Snob as contractors nee, to the trains waiting on the opposite aide of the river. We got through sending down the requir- ed number, 46 lbs, to the yarl, 28 ft, long, ou Dac, 9th,and were ordered down to Bambara to fill in a washout in a batik about 20 feet high and fully 100 feet 1.,ng, which our offioers said oould be filled In lees than three days by 60 Minos, but though we put in 7 days good bard work With 2 days' assletancefrom another gang of 60 the road had not been pat up to grade even where it bad been lying thrown over about 10 ft. to the side.

A large num. ben of men are grumbling at our ljeuten• ants and so fur as one le concerned not without reason for I hove heard him axil men down without apparent reaaon and in the fade of incontrovertible avid• eerie affirm that the man was a liar, On one occasion when a Imp etiok of timber WEDS needed in a. part of the country none were familiar with, and no standing timber, even bamboo, in eight anywhere, he oureed a sergeant for not getting what be wanted.
