I am In. the Can- " adlan Engineers and wo all feel r great, especially since we got I out of secregatlon. We lauded ;' somewhere In England (ha ha) thooldBtuff. Well, that Is all Iff' thoy will lot us Suppers say, so f .' we'll "carry on" with tho rest. Vu The Convoy had mostly"Yanks" w which were very good to us boys t from over thcllnc. Mostly Brit- lsh subjects yet strong for Yanks I cun say we boys got the best roputotlon coming up that river that wo got from Vancouver, j Thoy are very strong for tho i boys from tho other side. I saw un article In this morning's pap- f er with a great sendoff to some who Bpent their Icavo of absence In London. It stated that not u soldier was seen drunk out of all i tho crowd That's good.
