Harland from his grand nephew, Gunner Harvey Harland, son of Air.. P1111 Harland of Guelph. It is interesting as it is so optimis- tic and confident : "France, April 81.11, 1015 Dear Uncle William,— ,lust thought I would drop a line 1,o my relatives In Clinton to let them know I had not forgotten them. About the only, Clinton news 1 re- ceive is through dad after ha has been up there on a trip. f. some- times hear from Alma and Madelon. In dad's last letter he said the Clinton folks were not very well which news J was very sorry to hear and hope you have all improved by now. I saw two Clinton boys a short time ago, Andrew Steep and Morgan; Agnew, and both looked well. I haven't seen many of the boys although I always , keep my eyes Qpen for any one I know., Of course most of them are in other divisions and we never get a chance to,see each other till we get out . of action, which is very seldom f, r the Canadians. Wo are counted by old Fritz as the second best fighting un- it in the British Army which means 'a great deal to 0 new colony like Canada. Old Fritz is raising quite a. row just now over here and I guess the people in Canada and the Old Country have got ,their wind up but if they leave it to the boys in France things will turn .out all right I am sure. There is hound to be hard lighting all summer and our fellows can put it over f ritz in that line any old day if there arc no blunders made. Now we hr..te a French general in command of the Allied armies which is a good idea I believe. We are hound to et11110 reverses but in the long run they don't count. Old Fritz has taken ground but his losses have been vet y heavy and he can't hold the Paco much longer I don't think. Well news is getting a little scarce so guess I'll close for now.
