Firittttat,

Wednei-ida_v,_ March 14th, 1900.

° ’ ° ° Bloemfontein is ours;l

And here we are encamped 8 miles eouth

onthe railway line. We received the i

news yesterday when stopping for an tiour’» rest at a pond 4 miles from here. First the rumor of a civil dieaeueion among the peace and war parties of the Boere ran through the brigade. Then it was said the guns we had been hearing in the morning were those of the two bodies of Boera fighting each other; then the au- nouaoemeot came that French was in Bloeinfontein. I can tell you there was a sudden roar and hum of 6,600 voices. The tired and footsore soldiers with haggard weary faces brightened up in a moment, and all was animation and congratulation. It was worth the long days of semi- siarvation and toilsome march and fight to nartieipate in such a scene.

Last Sunday, the 11th, we left Drei-

fontein_about ten in the morning. The day had become verv warm and consequent- lv the marching was more difhcult. The journey for some days had been over an undulating veldt, but now we went along the ridges ofeome lov--lying kopjes. We passed through some ields of corn with melone growing below, as is usual here. l managed to get a fairly good mel n, although the best ot every- thing had been taken by the mounted men and the Boers who had already passed over the same place. We niarched onto the top of a small hill strewn with shrapnel and shell from the previous day’s fight and at the top found a pond of water and a. ruined house with a white flag on it said to be full of wound- ed Boers. The surface was rough and rocky for the next two or three miles, and then we had a short rest near another house with wounded Boere, which also had a white flag. We could see the women nurses moving in and out but we were not very close to them.

We continued marching on in the heat

which had become intense, up and down hill. It seemed all np. _The surface, of the ground had now changed, being mot lv covered over with small bunches of grass each of which had a little earth around it, as you often find it in our swamps at houie. This proved vt-rv try- ing on our men as they only could g t good footing by stepping high and look- ing out forthe low places between- not al- ways practicable. The eolesor the bo its became very smooth and slippery which added to the fatigue. Men began io full out in great numbers being unable to keep up. The Canadians were no worse than the other regiments of the brigade in this respect. Personaltv I hung it out till we arrived at our camping plat‘e--ll¢- teen miles-not eolong as some of our previous marches but generally con-

ceded to be one of the most trying.

We encainped in a kind of cove in tile

kopjee, a low ridge making a eemicircle partly around us. The water was not tip

to the C iarlottetown article, being muddy, which we don’t mind ae it ia near y always eo here and nas rather it swett. pleasant taste, but in this ca~e it contain- ed multitudes of small squirming ani- mals ; however, down it goes and wel- come. When we were settled off' we had to go and get wood for the cooks, and t-oou had alot of little bushes gathered smaller than the blueberrv hush, the onli fuel available,and our cooks quickly made ue a welcome half-ration of tea. In the meantims they had put on a ha»f :ation of meat to make us some soup, so by 6.30 wt- had that too.

We slept comfortably till 3.30 next

morning, and before sunrise had again begun a day’s march. We tramped on till 3 or 4 in the afternoon, over a fairly good country. Every now and than a nerd cf frightened epringhok would gallop wildly across our front, or a rabbit would e_cui'ry past often pursued by a dog

belonging to the iordons. Very frequent- ly the men would apture one of the.-a and you may he sure they made a welcome .ids ami. ,

The march wa- also enlivened oeca-

eionally bv mu-ic from the Gordoas’ bag- ptpes. The Highland brigade was_`no very far from us, and we often heard their bsgpipee also. Antntig the iiien there were many invaiices of pluck in the manner in wtiicfi they held out. The boots of a great many were a’mt»»it gone. In some int-iauc~a iney were actually ,;ooe; a- for instance the cs-e or Hull-1 l, ot' Bt, Johu~a cou-in of llli-it H»tti.l-l who visited her aunt, Mrs. Knight, at Sonris.
