LETTER FROM REV. MR FULLERTON:

State of the Regiment When He Wrote —News of Islanders.

Srrines, Sours Arrica, July 2, 1900.

My Dear Mr. Jamus,—Today for the first time there are definite signs of our speedy return, Two officers have left for the collection of invalids and baggage, so that every thing may be ready for ship-~ ment at a very esr'y dats. Every one here rejoices at the prospect. We are now holding a place aimall in itself, but important because of ita valuable coal minee Qur position is no sinecure as our fight- ing strength is not more than 360 - just think of that 350 out of 1046, the number on etarting. Theother mornng our camp heard, the alarm, and immediately we jumped, dressed hurriedly and soon dis: covered that the Boers were daring enough to steal some cattle from a kraal near one of our outposts. This is accounted for by two reasona: Lst, the commando here is in @ state of starvation; and 2nd, their spy system is so complete that they know the smal! size of our force. Wecould not attack, } of course, but we held the fort successfully and verysoon saw them scamper off, Happily there were no casualties.

I am delighted tohear that all in the Kirk are well, May you all long con- tinue to prosper in every good work.

We have just learned of the death from wounds of Lieut. Blanchard who with others were trapped when in charge of a convoy. He was related to Dr. Blan- chard. > St “Se om

The Island boys here are ail well. Young Kennedy hurt his side through having a nail in his pocket but will be quite well soon. He and Jack Proud are the only two of the Island draft who are left with us, all the others being ‘sick but Hurne who is with the Army Service Corps,— and a very useful man he is.

McDonald and Weeks are well and in good fighting trim. Remember me to all. With best wishes,

Yours truly, T. F. Fouuisrron.

James Walker is the only other Islander here. There were four Canadians came on the Monteagle.
