Another of the Island Soldiers Writes Home.

Mises M. Foley has

received a letter,

brother, Mr. Richard Foley, ene of tbe South Africa. mitted to quote the following :

Islanders in We are per™

“Il received your letter yesterday, and /was very glad to hear from you. [ am having @ very goed time so far, It is very warm here, butI am getting used to it now and do not mind it very much. There have not beea many sigas of war for the past few weeks, except preparations that are being made to take posses- sion of (he Boer stronghold at Spyfenteia. All trains for there pass threvgh here. But we know little of what is going on, except the knewledge that many guns have gone up during the last few weeks. Almost every train that pasees here bas guns of every description, from the 7-pound field gun to the deadly howitzer throwing 118 pounds of lyddite. The Boers are even mere frightesed of the lyddite shells, if possible, than they are of the British bayonete. Bat it is not much wonder, for anywhere they were ured huvrreds of dead Boers were found after the fight witheut a tingle wouad. There is a big fight brewing now which should eccur before very Jong. I am not sure whether wewill be initornet. If we are not actually evgaged, I hope we

will be close enough to see those lyddite shelis buret I sent home some pspers. You will

fiad in them some ne w~ un! a description of our little scrap »' Dorglas. It was not muco, butit wascur first engagement.

Only company “C” wee in the attack, while tue remainder of us where in re- serve,

Walter Lane is well. HeandI are in the same company. Al}) the Island boys are wel) and ere sil anxieus to get into every figut heard of. I bad eome photos taken aod am sending them to you.
