Prisoner of War In Germany 4 Years Ago

——F0u.f' years ago this April. MI. Hubert Hall of Summerside. now Sheriff of Prince County. was a prisoner-of war in Germany. Only four years ago. but sometimes n seems to him like a bad dream. Recently Sheriff Hall received a letter from Germany which brought back to him in a. vivid marine: some of the hardships and experiences he underwent during those last few weeks be- fore liberation. When the British and American armies were ap- proaching all the prisoners in his camp. numbering between three and four thousand and composed iznostly of British nnd Canadian officers, were marched inland. On this march they slept in th: fields and foraged for their own food.

Mr. Hall remembers quite well one night they spent near a little village 1n the Province of Schles- wlg-l-lolstein. Quite close was a house where there were four li tle children, bright. attractive. bio de youngsters who immediately made friends with the soldiers who gave them some dried prunes they had and some chocolate which, Mr. Hall remembers, did not have a. very pleasant taste. but the chil- dren ate it up. The mother of the children gave what assistance she could. which was not much. to the prisoners, such as supplying hot water. In gratitude for this as- sistance Sheriff Hall and some of his friends signed a message ask- ing whatever Allied Commander took over the sector to a-ssist this family as they had befriended the prisoners. They also gave the family the addresses lbsc-k home. Next rnomlng the band of prison- ers moved on and shortly after were liberated and camehome and the incident became one among so many that had happened during their war experience. A few days ago Mr. Hall received the follow- ing letter:

"Dear Mr. Hall: Greetings from four children in Elmenhorst in Germany. I never forget those April days when about 3,000 Can- adian and English prisoners were in front of our house. I believe we filled ourselves with dry fruit. and chocolate bars. I wish I hsd saved some for now. I suppose children have all kinds of wishes. My greatest wish is to have s football, but I can't buy one as they are too expensive for me. Our dad returned last year; ‘he was up to that time in Austria, but has no work yet. How dld you get back hocne? They told us that they took all the prisoners back by aircraft. My mother was pun- ished by the German soldiers just because she lent our bicycle to a Canadian prisoner. They took it from us. We were waiting to hear from you ever since you left here. because you promised us that you would write as soon as you were getting home. I am learning Eng- lish in school now and I hope to write i-he next letter in English. With greetings from my three little sisters, especially from

"Alfred Dwenger."

The letter vrss written m Ger- man and MT. Hall had it trens- laied. The important part of the letter is quite definitely about the football which the boy wants. Mr. Hall intends to fulfill the request but hopes that he does not, there- by, start a flood of requests from German children to Canadians for footballs.

Coffee. chocolate and ten were among the first products advertis- ed in newspapers. ‘
