Remembrance Day 2015 3

Wilson Kew Writes In A Characteristic Vein In the Field, July 13, 1917 Dear Friend Horace: Words are poor means of expressing my feelings of appreciation and thanks to you when I received your ever so large bundle of B.C. papers, and the most appreciated of them all was “the Good Old Observer” which I was longing for. I tell you, Horace, no parcel better than this could you have sent me and it has dislengthened my war sickened face considerably.

At the time of writing I am cooking for a section gang, 36 men and an officer, and when I received your handsome parcel I was so happy I felt like busting the frying pan. I suppose you will be surprised to find that I am cooking, for, when us four batched together during the winter of 1915 in the office, I knew nothing about it. Don’t you remember one day when you and I got dinner and the sausage busted and crumbled up on us? You and I took the worst of them and tried to leave two good ones for Coulter and Ronald who were down at the wharf. Well it is different cooking here. We don’t have such “dainties” as we had at our “orphanage.” Also I miss the good pies and cakes which the “kind ladies” used to present to us. I don’t only miss that but the “conversations” which used to take place, especially between you and Allen Coulter. Do you remember? Cooking here is like newspaper work in one way, for “When I worked in the office some people were always criticizing and passing rude remarks about the paper while others spoke good of it. I find the same in

cooking. Some criticize my cooking and others praise it. I blame it all on the quartermaster and then its jake. That’s the whole thing in the army: “blame it all onto someone else.”

I am still “alive and scratching.” I have seen a half-adozen or so drop into the rice which I cooked for supper as I unrolled my shirt sleeves tonight. Rats are a vermin here as well as lice. If we catch a rat, of course he is put in the mulligan pot, as we are always short of a meat ration.

If one is caught in a trap alive he goes right in the pot, and his kicking for liberty saves me the trouble stirring the mulligan to keep it from burning.

We are close to the firing line; close enough that I would like to be a few miles further back, as a “Jack Johnson” shell may visit me any time and flick the lead pencil out of my hand or my hat fly off from a bomb dropping from an aeroplane.

I’m sure I do not know what good this place will be after the war. The land is torn right upside down, and places that were all woods are shattered and blown all to smitherines. A magnificent cathedral in a place not far from here is nothing but a pile of ruins. Why, just tonight a party of us, returning home from a gas school at 7 p.m., passed a cemetery with a beautiful brick wall around it.

It was on the roadside and in it was a number of family plots. A shell had hit like under the wall and left a big

The military medal has been awarded to Sergeant S. S. Griffith of No. 12 Canadian Field Ambulance for distinguished and gallant conduct on the field of action.

A pile of ammunition was set on fire by a bursting shell and Sergeant Griffith, at great personal risk, managed to put it out thereby saving the lives of many of his comrades. A few days later “Sid” was wounded

Killed In Action It is with the deepest regret that we have to announce the sad news that Pte Donald Whitfield McDiarmid was killed in action on November 18th last (1916). News to this effect was wired to his parents on Tuesday.

At the time the call came Donald joined the R. M. R. and was engaged in track duty for some time after which he was transferred for overseas duty and was attached to the 54th Battalion. It was just over twelve months ago that he left with his regiment for overseas and the news of his untimely death is a shock to the whole community.

He was 22 years of age and was held in the very highest esteem by all who knew him. For about three years he worked in the Observer Office after which he left for a new field on the Prairies. He was one of the rising young men of the community and his loss will be deeply felt.

We tender to all his relatives our sincerest and heartfelt sympathy in the great and irretrievable loss

they have sustained. Severe as this shock undoubtedly is to us all we may reap some consolation from the fact that he performed all the duties entrusted to him in a proper and conscientious manner; when he heard his Country’s call for men he was not found wanting and when the time came for him to make the supreme sacrifice he willingly laid down his life for the sacred cause of liberty and justice like a soldier and a man.

May we always remember our heroes.

We are indebted to Mr. Hugh Bowden, Police Magistrate, for permission to publish the following letter, depicting life at the front which was written by his son, Norman, to his old schoolmaster and published by him in the school magazine:– France, February 7, 1916 Dear Mr. Swainson, Note I am taking your advice trying to rack my brains (do you hear the racking process), thinking of how we wrote or were supposed to write an essay; but all those useful tips have flown as money does when we willy duffers roll into London.

Still, I’d tip every menial who gave me half a look if they would give me another seven days. Well, if I’ve got to write this thing, I’d better begin before I forget the colour of sandbag. Bang, Bang, ugh! That’s not a gun but a French train coming to a sudden halt and depositing five men’s full packs from the hat rack on the recumbent, sprawling forms of ten men trying to sleep under the seats as well as on top, and before one could finish giving one’s views on French trains, railways, etc., etc., “Roll out you fellows,” “Get a move on.” “All change here for Berlin.” Don’t these sergeants have sweet, melodious voices, especially so in the early morning. You of course proceed, you rub your eyes and say, “All right, Sergeant, I hear you calling

me,” and as you are in full marching order, a term used when one gets into kip with all his clothes on, you know, the morning after the night before, you tumble out of the carriage, or if not so lucky, a cattle truck, and admire the beautiful sunrise or the more beautiful straight lines of poplars that line the roads as far as you can see. I don’t fink!This awful piffle, but I’m off on another tack. Billets, what are billets. Definition: billets are O.K. in England, but not so much in France, though they are heaven after a dose of the trenches. For the fighting Tommy it means a roof over head, and ranges from a cellar in a shelled chateau to a pigsty. I could go lower, but will refrain or shall get choked off, which includes barns, stables, cow and horse, and fowl houses. This is what we live in. Now as to what we live with, desirables and otherwise. They also have a long range, though the otherwise sort don’t keep at long range, worst luck. They even creep under your shirt out of the cold.

Oh no! I am not putting the cart before the horse – livestock in the same tenement, horses, cows, pigs, dogs, fowls, (getting smaller) rats and mice, and something to rhyme with the last named. Who can guess it. It’s never mentioned in society, but

every year is an important year to honour veterans. Each day we should be thankful for those who served & continue to serve so that we are able to enjoy the freedoms we have.

Because of the courage of our troops we have our freedom

News from the Boys at the Front Thursday, October 26, 1916 The following are some excerpts from letters written from Salmon Arm Boys, either at the front or in England and are published with the consent and courtesy of the recipients of the letters. We are glad at all times to avail ourselves of the opportunity of publishing any interesting news received from the Boys which is passed on to us.

France, Sept. 24th 1916 “I suppose you have noticed by the papers that the Canadians are on the Somme Front and the fact remains that we are pretty near up against it and are having lots of fighting to do and are seeing war in its worst stages. The Salmon Arm Boys are still kicking around with lots of life.

Arther Ritchie has returned from hospital none the worse for his wounds.”

– J. Sills England.

We are situated about five miles from Bramshott in a camp which holds about forty five thousand. They are all Canadians here. I expect to go to London for a week on Monday. We have been called out of bed on account of Zeppelins three times. The first time, there were twelve and they got two of them. We came over on the Scandinavian and were on the boat for twelve days. We went around the north of Ireland and then to Liverpool, there were four transports, Cameronian, Metagama, Northland and Scandinavian. The Olympic followed later as she was a good deal faster. We had to wear life belts all the way over. We are getting quite a lot of rain here now and we’re not doing much work. On our way here from Liverpool we had a slight accident, one of the cars ahead broke down a coupling broke or something and we were delayed for quite a while they cars we travelled in looked as if they were about fifty years old. The trains here look funny after Canadian ones, little engines and small freight

cars that only hold about five tons but some of the trains travel at a good rate, and the people in the towns here are very enthusiastic and nearly go crazy when any of the troops pass.

One thing we noticed was the similarity of all the houses, for two miles up the river before we reached Liverpool it was one mass of houses and every one was alike in shape and size.
