SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE
January 7th, 1916
Dear Friends and Readers.—Ko
doubt these few lines from me will
come as quite a surprise to most of you
people. Nevertheless the old saying is
the unexpected always happens.
Well, dear readers, things out here
have been very quiet for the past few
weeks, In fact, nothing at all doing,
bub rain, rain, rain, which of course
forms mud and which now is nearly
two feet deep. Would be pleased to
write things home about what happens
out here, but that is impossible, as the
censors would not let our letters through
Our regiment, Lord Strathcona's
Horse have now finished with trench
duty, as we are again to be mounted in
a few weeks to represent Canada in the
cavalry. I sincerely hope, providing
we get the chance, that we will make
iust as good a name for ourselves as
our infantry have done.
No doubt you know that we were
dismounted about the let of last May
and were doing duty in the trenches in
the latter part of the same month,
Gascho, of the 14th con., left Wed- i Festubert being our first engagement
nesday for a few weeks visit with
friends and relatives at Baden and
New Hamburg.
Mr and Mrs Henry Gatineau re-
turned from their wedding trip on
Tuesday evening. They will take up
housekeeping above C Hartleib's store
for the present.
Church union has been carried . in
the Presbyterian church. The major-.
ity for union with the Methodist and
Con gregationalphurches according to'
official figures announced was 53,086,
In voting this year not one class of the
church returned a majority against un-,
ion in any synod, The members of the
sessions gave a majority of 8,026 for;
communicants, 83,079 for; pastoral
charges and mission .fields, a iyalorfty,
of 7S2 for union,
The 'members of the Young Mei.,
Bible Class of the Evangelical church
were'entertained at the home of their
worthy teacher, Mr D S Faust, last
Friday night to a banquet. About
twenty-fiye attended and all' report a
most enjoyable time. After the sup-
per, the evening was spent in speaches
songs and social chat. Before leaving
the members voted a hearty vote of
thanks to Mr Faust and expressed the
wish that he wound soon recover his
usual good health and that he would
be spared many years to continue the
good work he is doing for the young
men of the church.

ity in favor of 78. It is estimated the

HAND BADLY CUT
While assisting to saw wood at the
farm of Hugh Love, near Hillsgreen,
on Tuesday, John Jarrotb, aged 25,
had the misfortune to have his left
hand come in contact with the teeth
of the circular saw, with- the result
that the palm of the hand was laid
open to the bone, all the ligaments
being cut. Dr A J McKinnon was
called and dressed the wound.
about the 21st of May. But we have
been lucky in regards . to casualties.
We have between 90 and 100 of our
.original men left out of a full regim-
ent,'
Christmas and New Years passed
very quietty. No more action on the
part of our enemies across "No man's
Land" than usual. I think they haye
almost "shot their last bolt," at least
hope so and also hope to see the war
end speedily and successfully.
But dear friends allow me through
the columns of The Herald to thank
you for the parcel which was sent by
you to me which arrived here in per-
fect order. I would certainly be
l�le ecl to hear from any of you at
a!id would deem it an honor to
e same.
