ETHEL
Overseas Letter
.ler, end nli's. Wm. Willie, Gow-
anstown, have received the follow-
ing 1111 cisc 11115 letter from theft' son,
Victor, who writes o1 seeing the
grave of his brother, Pte. Percy
Willis, in a cemetery in Franca, It
reads as follows;
France, 'Sept 10th, 1.944
Dear Mother, Dad and Carl—
'Vell, I received your letter dated
August 29th yesterday evening and
was glad to hear from you, I also
got letters from Doreen, Hazel and
Melvin. I answered Doreen's and
told her about finding Percy's
grave,
1 started out at six, o'clock at
night to look for It after I had
finished work, I managed to7'get the
neap reference •and knew just about
where to go, I got a ride to Caen
and walked the rest of tete way. I
took the wrong font in the road and
went, a piece before I noticed it so
took a chance on crossing the f,elds
to the other highway. There were
plenty of bomb craters and shell
holes and I had to be on the lookout
for live mines. To make sure of
that I followed a tank track which
nig zagged to the other higaway.
However I found the little cemetery
at nine o'clock at night and thank
the Lord: for leading me there
safely.
I only passed about 10 graves
wilten I found where Percy was,
Poor fellow, he's not alone. There
are quite a few there with him that
fell in the battle of Caen.
Percy's grave was in better con -
dation than I expected to find it.
There is a nice :hardwood cross
painted white at the head of his
grave. His name and regimental
number are pained on in black. His
regiment is also marked on It with
the 3rd divisional patch painted on
top of the cross, witch the maple
leaf painted in the centre of the
divisional patch. It stands out well.
I got .some nice flowers in a French
garden passing through Montdeville
and put them on his grave just In
front of the cross. That and e little
prayer was all that I could offer for
poor Percy.
It was r about dark when I started
back for camp. I just had left the
cemetery, when} two English Padre's
caught up to me in a light truck.
4Phey took me as far as Caen. The
one, Rev. Padre Hills, has a: camera
and offered to take a picture of
Percy's grave if lie got a chance, so
I gave him the name and number
and also Doreen's address, so if he
gets a chance to get it developed he
can send it to Doreen. I told her not
to count too much on it I thought it
was very good of them.
Well, I got a ride from Caen back
to camp in an English truck and was
back by midnight. I also was up to
see Percy's, grave again today and
put some more flowers on it. I took
a fellow with me who had a camera
end we took a few pictures of it, I
thought probably I might never get
another chance to see it. A person
can't send a film home so will have
to hang on to it until I can get them
developed somewhere. We were
lucky today. We got a ride most of
the way and were back by five
o'clock, in time for supper.
Well, I am still at the same job,
but you never know when you
might be moved. I can barfly see to
write any mere so will have to quit
for now.
