Dear Faraer,—lI wr te

io jet you know

that L am alive and well, boping this will find you the 3ame. We had a terrible battle Jast Sar dav. They Bay it was one of the hardest battles foughtin South Africa.

Poor Roland Taylor was shot through tne heart, 4 id died at once. There

as Ouly Valter Lane between him and inyerelf. I beard toe fatal ballet bit bim and ali he said was“lam bit.” I turns ed and asked hiat where he was hit; he

said, ‘Il do not know; ” then be laid over and dies. The bullets came thick and fast, like a shower of hail

Fred Weve was shot through the leg and was taken to Modder River and will be allright.

We marched 22 miles Saturday night, which made us pretty tired,and fought all day Sunday. I was on the field about ten o’clock, wib some more Islanders, carrying in the wounded men. The Boers were firing al us all the time. The Tzlaod bovs were as cool as could be.

Last night we marched seven Boer miles which are mucb longer than English miles.

We had another fight Tuesday but none of ue were hit elthough we were neare: the «nen.y than ov Sunday, but we had better cover. The Boers were in the bed of the river, with gullies rusning into it,

and we could ecarcely seem them at all. /They had the best cover that could be ' got | It wasa terrible sight to go over the field next roorning and eee the dead and dying. The Island boys carried poor Roland Taylor off the field, aud he is now at rest under the shade of a tree.

We wre likely to bave seme fighting very soon as about 1,006 Boers came in sight last night, but retired. They were the advance guards of othars,

I bope you are all well. We areon half rations now. I teil you we are fail- ing but we will soon have some more food in. Our rations now are three biscuits aod a pound and a quarter of meat a day. I must close now. Send word to Lane’s people thet he is we!l. He lives at Rocky Point.
