ESCAPED GERMAN
PRISONER COMING
MAN WHO SPENT THREE YEARS
IN GERMAN PRISONS TO
COME TO MOSCOW

Rev. Mr.. Bridge is in receipt of g
very interesting letter from frienc
who escaped from German prisons
and is coming to Moscow. The fol
lowing letter was written by the man
to his brother, who is minister at
Greenwood, B. c., and will be of in
trest to Star Mirror readers. The
writer plans to come to Moscow to
visit Mr.. Bridge and may decide to
make his home here. The letter fol-
lows:

The feeling of Britisher on get
ting into a town outside of Hun and
in which he has been prisoner for
several years is indicated by the
words of Capt L. Simpson in letter
to his brother, Rev. H. w. Simpson,
vicar of St. Judes church, Greenwood.
Capt. Simpson joined the Yorkshire
light infantry, was wounded and cap
tured in the retreat from Mons, and
after being 8 IL years prisoner in
Germany, has been sent to Holland.
He writes from Scheveningen as fol-
lows:

On the far-tluHg battle line,
And the Yankee songs are sounding

Now have turned to tears OF JOY,
As the mother waits in gladuess
For the coming of her hoy.
The ship that took him over
Brings him back TO You and me
And it needs no secret cover
From the pirates OF the sea.
The bells OF Christmas season
Have a cadence sweet but sad;

Where only the heroes trod;
He mounted 20 caly'ry,
Like the suffering Son Of God.
