Victorja, B. C., Dec. 13th, 1920.
To The Nem -Record: As my many
friends are expecting to hear from
me I thought I would write them a
general epistle through the medium
of your valuable paper, of which I
have been a reader for the last 35
years. We left Seaforth on the . 8th
and had -a quiet and speedy ruin°
Toronto; After a wait of about an
hour we boarded the train for Win-
nipeg and it being lbed tine we went
to bed when we awakened in the
morning, or at least when those that
slept awakened, for I did not sleep,
I am not used to sleeping on a. bed
that throws you endways and side-
ways and up and down at one and the
same time, we were well through Sud-
bury and into the thnber. It is a
very desolate ccuntry right through
until near Winnipeg. Y'ou would see'
a house or two here and there,where
the section men lived, and an odd
trapper's hut, but very few people.
