That Must Be Attended to -Boys Mast
Have Their Christmas "Eitel"
The following letter from Capt. ,Fred
Sturdy has been received by Mrs. Hamil-
ton, president of the Woman's War,
Auxiliary of Goderich: \
Waley Camp, Oct. 10, 19
Dear Mrs. Hamilton, --Perhaps this
letter will come as a surprise to you, but
1 recall our last leave in Goderich, a little
over a year ago. and a statement made
by you that should the boys of the 181st
ever require anything to let the ladies
know.
On the strength of this i am writing
you to ask for your assistance towards
providing the men of our Battatton'a
of the Battalion provided the
dinner to the men and I think
it was well enjoyed and much ap-
Chnstmas ditcher. Last y•ear the officers
" pre l*ted; ...The year we hive many new
and strange officers among us and the or-
iginals 1lrecortaderahle in the minority,
so we are looking to the people at htrne
for assistance. knowing that at this time
of the year your thoughts are with us as
ours are with you.
It is our desire to provide a dinner large
enough so that all may have as much' as
he can possibly eat. It will cost in the
neighborhood of one hundred pounds and
we are asking for cash donations at the
rate of one dollar per man from places
who have men on the strength of our
unit.
Goderich is at the present . time '.repre-
sented by seventy-four men. and allowing
twenty-six for men who have come into
the Battalion and whose home addresses
are not known makes the share for Gode-
rich one hundred dollars., This amount
may or may not seem large to you, but
last year with our strength of 700 the
dinner cost 75 pounds. This year our
strength is over slat and f/od prices have
increased considerably..
Perhaps l an presuming too much by
asking you and the ladies of Goderich to
furnish this arreiunt. knowing that your
time is well taken up with war work of
different kinds, hut trust that if you do
not care to do so you will place it in the
hands of someime who will.
Trusting that thin will meet with your
support and to hear from you at an
early date, 1 am.
Yours truly.
