Bottle Drifts For 16 Years. Finally Finds Way To P.E.I.

Curiously enough a bottle was picked up on the beach near Murray Harbor North, on Prince Edward Island’s southeasf shore a.few days ago. Two of the thrée, names found on the slip of paper | inside were those of Island men, since deceased, and the bottle had been dropped overbeard from a troopship 16 vears ago.

Picked up by William Graham [of Cambridge, the well-preser- ved note read: ‘

“Aboard the SS Alexand bound for the Mediterranean, | Oct. 23, 1943— W. A. Chandler, Charlottetown; Ira C. Clark, Charlottetown and Andrew Me- Graw, Whitewood, Sask.”

The men were members of the | 2nd Medium Battery, the first Island unit to be drafted ‘over- seas in the Second World War. | J. B. Shelfoon, Charlottetown, | former BSM of the unit, con- firmed that the three were aboard the troopship at the time. He is going to ask Mr. Graham to present the bottle to the. local regimental associa- tion.
