Jackson DEAR BERT :—We are now located at the above named place having moved here from Otterpool Camp on the 25th ultimo. We are in barracks which is quite an agreeable change to the old leaky tents heretofore occupied by us. The weather has been very rainy since we came to England and the nights cold• So you can under- stand how I appreciate the cosy little fire which is now burning in the grate in my room The cold rain is again pouring down outside and the mud, especially around the stable and horse lines, is ankle deep. I have been up to Scotland on leave having returned ft•otn thele about three weeks ago. Whilst in London, on the 9th ultimo, on my way up I witnessed the zeppelin raid, of which you no doubt have read in the papers. One of the bombs dropped within three or four hundred yards of where I stood, exploding with a terrific shock: The searchlights soon got the zep. in scissors rays, that is one ray in front and one behind and held her in the light for the best part of five minutes until she .disappeared in the clouds. I had an excellent side view of her all the time and it was a great sight to see the huge silver -colored air vessel sailing majestically through the heavens, with the shells from the anti- aircraft guns exploding round about her, - The zeppelin was an immense vessel with her car running from mid - ships to about her stern. The bombs started a number of fires and caused over 100 casualties. Although I visited Glasgow there is nothing much to tell about it as it is chiefly noted for its dirt and manu- facturing, so I will confine my re- marks to Edinburgh. Of course the first point I visited was Edinburgh Castle, that famous old fortress which has 'been besieged so many times in the past. Amongst the numerous points of interest of the castle are :— The old state prison where illustrous prisoners, such ate the Marquis of Argyle, were confined in the. musty past ; the Crown Room, where the ancient jewels of Scotland are to be seen ; Saint Margaret's Chapel, the oldest and smallest chapel in Scotland, constructed for the private use of Margaret, the pious Queen of Mal- colm III; Old Mone Meg, a very antiquated • smooth bore cannon which fired stone balls about a foot in dia- meter and is said to be the most an- cient piece of ordnance in Great Bri- tain ; and Queen Mary's room• in which she gave birth to King James VI. of Scotland. Embedded in the walls of some houses nearby may be seen cannon balls, giving relics of those strenuous days in years gone by. Of course in those days solid shot was used and not explosive shell as is used today. Leaving the castle we pass down through the old town, once the resi- dence of the elite but now the hotue of the lower five, and soon come to St. Giles Cathedral, the famous old St. Giles, the history of which dates back to the earthy part of the Twelth century. On entering the church one at once notes the numerous tattered and blood-stained flags and banner's which hang around the inaseive pil- hu•e. They are the colors of famous old Scottish regiments whose deeds of valor stand still undimmed on the pages of history. Here also are numerous tablets and statues to the honor and memory of soldier heroes and Christian martyrs ; and here is a brass tablet marking the place where Jenny Geddes eat on the three legged stool which she threw at the head of the minister, Dean Hannay, just as he was about to read from the English Prayer Bonk, as foolishly ordered by the sovereign. Her angry remon- strance emphasized by the throwing of the stool marks the start of the bitter war between Episcopacy and Presbyterianism in Scotland,which , after being fiercely waged for many years, resulted in the freedom of reli- gion. A tablet is also erected to the Dean in St. Giles, and the famoul stool of Jenny Geddes rests in the museum beside the old pulpit of John Knox, the feat'lese father of the Re- formation in Scotland. A little further down High St. is to be seen the house in which John Knox lived in those Stirring days of reit- ;Watch Prices Reduced • Having an overstock of Ladies' 6 size and 0 size Watches on hand I am offering 5o at the ••44 following reduced prices for the next 15 days ILadies' 6 size 7 Jewel 25 year case $10.00 reg. 15 • • • • • • • • • •• • • ••• • It 11 11 O 7 11 11 15 Ic It $15 12.00 " $16 10.00 " 12.00 11 These Watches have 25 year gold filled cases and ar" w ltten guarantee goes with every move- ment. $15 $16 L.

On visiting this unique oldihouee one cannot help but be filled with sober thought and reverence, for here once lived and dwelt one of the strongest characters in all Scottish history. The house contains numer- ous relics of Knox and the Reforma- tion. The house itself is a quaint and ioteresliug specimen of ancient archi- tecture arid will doubtless ever prove a great attraction to visitors to this historic city. We leave Knox's house and continue down High St. to Holyrood Palace and in doing so we pass three interest- ing spots marked in the pavement. One is in the shape of a heart formed with the cobble stones and is known as the "Heart of Midlothian." An- other "The Boundary Line" is marked in colored stones straight across the street and tnarke the line beyond which a debtor• was safe from pursuit by his creditors in days gone by when law had not the little niceties of pre- cision which it has today. The third spot is marked in the road with cobble stones forming a solid circle. This marks the spot where they used to publicly burn the witches in the bat - barons past. Holyrood Palace was erected in the year 1128 but only a portion of the original building now remains. Queen Mary's apartments y p tments are of course a- mong the most interesting parts of the palace. They have undergone very little change since they were oc- cupied by this beautiful, yet weak and thoughtless woman, save that which has been wrought by the ravages of time. As when occupied by this un- happy queen there stands her bed- room with its ancient bed and mould- ering finery, her pictures, chairs, tables and little odds and ends in which women delight and even the workbox which she used when she worked embroidery. If this room and the private Supper Room adjoining could bear witness, what disgraceful tales would be added to the discredit- able histoty already recorded in con- nection with the checkered life of Mary Stuart. It was in the supper room that Mary and Rizzio, her Ita- lian Sectetary, were surprised by Darnley and the other conspirators 1. Brown's Trees !The best that can be grown. Who is our agent in your town ? Brown Brothers Co'y 194 Nurserymen, Limited Browns' Nurseries, Welland Co., Ont. who sought to free Scotland from the pain and shame resulting from her amorous associations with Rizzio. They seized him and dragged him shrieking through the Queen's bed- room to the top of the etaircase where he was found with 56 dagger wonnds in his body. They show you hie blood under a glass covering. It looks sus- piciously like a daub of red paint. Then there is the old Audience Cham- ber where Mary held her stormy inter- view with John Knox. Of interest al- so is Queen Mary's bath in which she is said to have bathed herself in white wine. I also went to Rosyth and went all through the great naval base there. I walked through the drylocke, basin, etc., into which the water was to be turned three or four clays later. 1t was a great ptivilege fur me to be shown through as it is very carefully guarded. Even old residents are not allowed in. I also could see at low tide near the famous Forth Bridge the nets for catching submarines of which you no doubt have read in the papers. Your letter of the 4th ultimo came to hand a few days ago. I have never run acmes young Tinning and cannot look him up as you do not say what corps he is in. There are about 50,000 Canadian troops around here. With love to Clara, Lloyd and yourself. Am well and working very hard. Your loving brother, LEON. Westenhanger, Kent, England, October, 7th, 1915.
