Just time for coffee and a bun and we get our train for ]Belfast. * * Well, about my Irish trip. I think my sailor friend and I had just land- ed at Greenore, and got our train for Belfastt. The country we passed through is cut up into little farms, with small white washed cottages and very poor outhouses—that is, poor, compared to bur Ontario farms, but the main thing that attracted me was the greenness of the grass and trees. In the spring and summer it would of course be more marked. 1 arrived at,Belfast at noon, phoned Mr. Morton 1 would be at his office by three, and Jack and I went to find some+eats . I found that in Belfast a shilling had approximately twice the purchasing power, that is for London, food, that it would havein and three times more than Ashfc-d called him.

Well, to continue my trip. On meeting Mr. Morton I found he was a Mason, and that his lodge was meeting, that night, therefore.I must go.

After we had finished tram r;ile and arrived "Shnla" I am ,sitting on tile Ashford floor Glastenlefry Ave., a very fine resi- beside a dandy grate fire.

A. eery trim maid, who afterwards told Mrs. for the !day, but cannot leave the house till the sboys tome back from Morton, I was the nicese soldier she everssaw, because I would not let her work, sq I will tell you about the wedding.. After getting my pass, I clean mai boots, admitted us, and showed me my room. Some class — grate fire, and the very finest bed, eider -down silk quilt, and everything to match. • On the sound of the din- ner gong. I marched downstairs and met Mrs. Morton. She is lots younger than her husband and she is iiust as nice: She was calling me !Mac, a- the first course.

So, earne back to Ashford, and they ali you see I have had a prety good awl had a big rush to catch my -tram. but b:usy 'dine Lately, made it. Bed an hour's wait at Has- tings. and as it was my first visit here I had a little walk on the sea front. The promenade was crowded. .Has: tings is much the same as Brighton, only in a smaller scale. Would liked to have had -time to go to oar hospi- tal. as some of the boys I know are there. Made Bexhill and ran right into a Red Cross flag seller, then I had a;good feed and made enquiries as to hode I should reach Little Confinon. I found I had a mile .tram ride and a short walk, but eventually I reached Peach Cottage, the Gillharn's home and introduced myself as the best man. Stich a crowd of girls there were! I was quite bashful. There was Mrs. Gillham, a fine old la,dy,Who has six sons now serving in the ser- vice,,and one son, who was killed on the Somme. Then' there was Edie, the bride, she is a fine girl and will make Larry a good wife. Flo a sister, who will have bean marrie(1-- by the time you get this—a very jolly .girl. Daisy, a peach of a girl. whom I would let put her boots in my trunk any day: Peggy, the youngest girl, wlio is a dandy kid, and a regular tom -boy. Then there are two married sisters their seventeen-year old boy was Stay- ing .in the clay, so did not see him till next` day. He also was o though a little bashful. What of, I don't know. So after dinner, and aft ter the usual jokes about going to lodge Mr. Morton in evening at- aire and I in My only suit. started for lodge. We had only time to Took at the club, as we were then a little clate, but I was assured that I would see More of Dennegal Club ere the evening' was out. At the lodge I was given a most hearty welcome, and certainly enjoyed myself. After the weak of the evening, we adjourned to the club, and such a banquet and speeches, songs and music; and I was right there a common -private with all the dress suits, but such is life. To say I had a good time is ;putting it mildly Then in the wee small hours . we taxied ho -me, and here I saw real Irish hospitality, for tb.e host mount- ed the stairs in his stocking feet, while I had to be forcibly made to , wear his slippers: And such a bed.! If every Irishman had a bed like the one I bad that night, he would never of his own accord, get out of it. The horrie life of the Mortons is a thing of beaue. I never gaw husband and wife, so, well, just what they ought to be, a perfect match, I should say. In the morning I went ta the city with Mr. Morton and there I met Mrs. Renoldia,we (Jim's sister). She is a dandy and aays my next visit to Belfaim must be with her. We vis- ited the city hall, library, conserve- , tories; etc. -Had lunch at the Carle,' ton, and more visits and inspectionsa all of which I enjoyed. Then we called for m MiestFisher (she is all to the good) a niece of them all, who said it wasn't fair that -the aunts and uncles, should have all the pleasures of entertaining Jim's friend. We got along fine. We went to the Ren- .'shawes for 7 o'clock dinner, and met Mr. Renshawe, or Jack as I now Flour and Feed We will unload a car of Five Roses Flour a n d Feed at the Walton Sta- tion in, the near future.
