A NARROW ESOAPd
T'be following from the 5t. Thomas
Times will be of interest to the many
friends of the Dunemor'e family in
town and country, Lieut. Densmore
being a son of Mr. 11. J. Dunsmore,
postmaster of St. Thomas, and a form
er well known Huron boy and a grand
son of Councillor Paisley. The Times
says; -"Mr. and Mrs. Rs 3', Dunemore,
Elgin street, received aletter Saturday
afternoon' from their son. Lieut. E.L.
Dunsmore, with the Canadian engin
eers in Flanders, who was reported
slightly wounded two 'weeks ago. He
writes as follows: -Tuesday night on
my way home from the work d was
carrying a Ross rifle I had found, I
stopped at a certain point to give
directions to my sergeant about a sign
to be erected. Suddenly I felt a punch
in the ribs and beard a metahc'crack.
I had been bit. So I felt in my shirt
to see if I could find a hole or feel any
blood. I couldn't, I said to my ser
geant, I guess it's nothing, but we will
have a look in this dugout and make
sure. So we crawled into an old dug
out and lit a match. We found' the
skin had been taken off for about a
square inch. We decided it must have,
hit something before I got it, There
was nothing in breast pocket to stop it
so I picked up the rifle. I found that
the magazine was all bent in. We
came on back to the billet and I look
ed things over. There was a hole in
my tunic right at the belt line, by the
little pocket. The bullett had hit the
magazine at an ankle glanced off and
gone through my coat, knociting me
nearly fiat. I put iodine on thecut
when 1 got in and found it was more
of a bruise than a cut -a bruise about
four inches square with the cub in
the centre, am quite satisfied shat it
was no closer. A peculiar coincidence
was that the following evening nzy
sergeant happened to be standing in
the same place, as I had a working
party near there, The sentry told him
he had better get down from there, as
there had been a chap hit there last
night. Sergt. Lewis said, "Oh that
was my officer," Was it, said the sen
try, "Well I found the bullet this
morning,' He gave it to Lewis and
Lewis gave it to me.. IL sure must
have been corning some,. for the steal
nose is bent right over lino i hook. I
have the tiflo and the billet, 111 he
tempted to carry *mine a rifle 'every
night now.
