EXAMINER, CHARLOTTETOWN JUNE 26 1900 “a EE I AINE BORON OEY LE LONE T ET AT I SR NNR IE ROE RE SET LETTER FROM REV. T. F. FULLERTON. On the March to Pretoria- Boers Running. Kroonstaprt, May 13, 1900. My Dear Mr, James,—I seize the op- pe ‘ae of dropping you a few words, as do not know when a chance may occur again. Kitchener, ina way, has successfully trapped us,as we lef: Bloemfontein fora three days’ march only, and here we are half way to Pretoria after marching some bundreds of miles and fighting five genera! engagements, We have had some fatalities; but itis astonishing that we have not had more. Only thoee who have been in the conflict can possibly conceive how thickly shells and bullets can play around aad 60 many escape wounds or death. The result of the fighting you know; — the Boers will not stand. Tam the only Chaplain with the regi~ mentnoow, Father O’Leary being in Care Town and Rev. Mr. Almoud in Bloem- footein. We all expect to return soon, owing to the fact that the enemy is simply fleeing before our advance. I believe I am doingjgood here, and would feel thet I was acting the part of a coward were [ to leave now when I am alone as Chaplain and the men do not know when they rise in the morning whether they will see the san eet. For the past thirteen days it bas been tramp, tramp, tremp, and I think I bave surprised everybody by my endurance. McDonald andI have footed it along suffering very much from dyszentry, but in this we are like a great many more. It will, I think, soon haveanend. I should say the end of the month will probably see the end of the war. Ernest Lord is injBloemfonte in,—better but weak. Hedley McKinnon was left at Winburg suffering from rheumatism — but not very acutely, I must close as the convoy is starting. Give my regards to all my friends in Charlottetown —to the session and coagre- cation. Yours sincerely, T. F. Forierron. oo DYEING SILKS vs: UAYPOLE SOB 22" SOLD EVERYWHERE.
