In the first plane you may have un- derstood by 'The Spectator" that 1 joined the 91st of Hamilton, but fail- ing there rather than try for the 13th I went to Dundee, where I was suc- cessful in enlisting with the 77th Regt, of that town. Started drilling Satur- day and after it short time on squad drill, we went out for a route march and like Mahomet weut up to the mountain and back, a distance of 5 miles. Being dismissed at noon came in to Hamilton and saw the Ottawa's trim the home team, ae you would see by the papers. Sunday we went to Dundee for church parade. Monday we were on squad drill and rifle drill all day with the exception of 11 hours at physical exercises and Tuesday we expect to go for a 10 mile route march P Altogether so far I like it verymuch and otntrary to what seems tbe the idea of a lot of young men who think it is just riffraff who are soldiers and on that ground try to excuse them- selves. I tell such that there is a standatdtutlit under which a lot of q y so-called gentry fall. tellyour 1 o Imol g y would like to get after you some even- ing, ing, as you cit on the "Board of Trade" discussing other people's social and financial sounding and let you know that every day here in the city et to' dere are men who give n cod posi- tions. g P ions. As an instance the chief en- gineer e ggineer and his assistant in the Oliver. Plow Works, who the other day join- ed the ranks, and men in such re- sponsible positions are enlisting in the ranks every day. I tali you mothers or other guardians that your boys will be well looked after should they come forward to their country's call and I ask you to remember the slogan which is used very much here which reads like this :-"Remember the Lusitiani- a's last message, -Send Out Soldiers. Join to -day and help the pause Of Freedom." I was at a Loyal Orange meeting to -night where the members decided to buy a machine gun for the over- seas services and each and every Society is doing something along the same lite. In regard to the sleeting of to -night there was one MacFarlane (who one of the doctors of Brussels knows well) who is a very energetic worker in the Order towards getting the machine gun. I would like to ask the members of L. 0. L. 774, through Tan Posm if they could not do some- thing along the same litre. While I don't think you could raise $1000, the price of a gun, such sum as you do raise sent to the Grand Lodge would be duly recognized. I take this opportunity of thanking each and every one of my friends in Brussels who gave me such a royal send of, particularly 3. F. Rowland, fwhom am reminded tett often ; o I P y Bros., all daylongand the Downing B s, 1 L 0. 0.1+., at least once every second day and in re can to do all I return mean can to keep the 111111S out of Brussels.
