LEAVES TO FIGHT
FOR ENCLANDI
Goeffrey S. Roper to Join Prin-
cess Patricia's Light Infan-
try at Ottawa.

Goeffrey S. Roper, for some time
past employed as timekeeper by the
Bailey Lumber company, has resigned
his position and the first of the week
left for Ottawa, Ont, where he will
enlist in the Princess Patricia's Light
Infantry now being organized in that
city for service in the European war.
Roper is an Englishman and comes
from family of soldiers. His broth
er is commander of a fleet of torpedo
boats in the English navy, 20 in num-
ber, now doing duty in the North sea.
A brother was an officer in the Brit
ish infantry and was killed in the Boer
war.
The Princess's Patricia's light in
fantry, now being organized is one of
the most popular of the brigades being
raised in Canada. Saturday the COM
mand was visited by the Princess,
who personally presented it with the
colors. The ceremony was attended
with much enthusiasm in Ottawa.
Mr.. Roper had many friends in Vir-
ginia who regret his departure. Eff
forts of friends to dissuade him from
enlisting we're fruitless. II am an
Englishman," he said, my parents
live in England, my brother is in the
English navy. No true Briton can re-
main. at ease when his country and
his home are threatened with an in
vasion from a hostile army. I shall
enlist in the army of the king"

to Robinson. He found the trail, but
after following it for three days, lost
his way.

the majority of his clothing was torn
off by the underbrush, and he became
weaker daily from the lack of proper

of badly tattered trousers and a much
worn pair of shoes. He lapsed into
