The corps is now being paia the same rates as the Im- perial corps. Mr, Ecclestone contin- ues: “The weekly mail here very large proportions.

The handling of this is render- ed more difficult by the fact that lists of sick and wounded are sent in from the various hospitals, and their matter seiected. Besides this, the rapid changes in location of troops and de- tachment of details, make it difficult to effect accuracy. I understand the Australian Government, following the lead of our own, has offered a_ postal contingent to the Imperial Govern- ment. ‘The matter has been referred to Major Treble, and he favors its acceptance, as their services are greatly needed, and hehas several times as- sured me of his appreciation of the theughtful foresight of the Canadian Government in so promptly sending assistance.” Mr. Ecclestone, in clos- j the Canadians in recent engagements, which, he says, haw earned then high praise in Cape Town —-—- aa — A STRONG BACKING Commissiener of Wickham, N.
