Well, 1 guess I will finish telling about our trip. We went down to the wharf, An Montreal, all happy, thinking about the ahead of us. We had we voyage the on weld ship and were taken to our berths., jthen we went on and claimed our trunks. shore One trunk was missing and upon investigation found that it had been left in Chicago, so we had to order it sent out on the next boat I do not know whether it ever arrived or. not. Of course all th time and until 10 p. m. we were using our eyes as everything was strange and new to us. We got around alright during our entire trip and had very little trouble in finding our way. We all got up at 5:30 a. m. Nov. 4th, to see the ship start out. It had three tugs pull it out, then the ropes were unfastened and the ship sailed down the river at a very low speed. Breakfast waa served at 8 a. m. and it was the first and best treat we had received since leaving home. They aefved everything that was good aud we could repeat the orders as many times as we wished.' All th? trip we had had part lunches then other times we ate at the restaurants, and we were getting thin. When we got 'uur feet under the table we didn't have any merey on anything arid we all thought we had got a treat-w- e all said' it was better than home, except ji few that were wishing they hadnt left home, but to toy great surprise I never got homesick. Well we had a good feast for two days, but the night of the second day, we had been on the ocean about 4 Ijours and the ship was tossing all ways, we all began to feel like they do a hen they smell the cork a little too long, but we were all brave. When the supper bell rang we went marching to the table, our hair was massed up on account of us our heads hold to trying from off or turning flying away hi the air. Well the smell from Dear 1 e , - take effect, first one would jump and run for Lis berth then another and the rest would all laugh at the one who had just left. By the time npper was over there were 5 of our eompany left at the tablet I hick it out, but I would just a soon been in the cemetery.
