FROM OVER THERE.
Ellsworth Boy Writes of Arrival In
England.

Sidney r. Bonsey, son OF Capt. Roland {.
Bonsey and wife of the Surry road, whose
safe arrival in England on his way to
France was announced some weeks ago, in
letters home tells something OF his i'm
pressions OF England.
Under date of March 30 he says: "We
left the ship Friday, rode on the train
about all day, and arrived at this place.
1t is rest camp. / don't know how long
we will stay here or where we will go
from here, and could not say II / did
know.
1--WE passed through very pretty farm
ing country. Gardens everywhere, with q
lot OF things up, and green grass, so you
see the season here is far ahead OF ours.
The country is low and level, very few
trees, no wooden houses or fences. The
fences are all OF stone, or hedges, and the
houses of brick. The roads are narrow,
but hard, smooth and clean.
1--WE stopped twice en- route, while the
Red Cross gave US hot coffee, and at an
other place where they gave US bread and
hot cocoa. The cars are higher than ours,
have doors on the side that open into
sections. Each section has two seats
running across the car, and each section
holds ten people. No aisles, no going
from one car to another; you get in your
section and stay there until the end OF
the trip"
In letter written March 81 he says
"This is Easter Sunday. We marched
| down to the town, about three miles, to
services at the cathedral. The cathedral
is very large and beautiful. 1t was built
in 1850 A. d. They must have had some
wonderful architects in those days. The
seats are small, wooden, straight backed
chairs with cane bottoms.
awe stood muster this afternoon that
means standing in line for roll-call and
signing the payroll. After that we took
six-miie hike. So you see there isn't a
lot OF rest-twelve miles day"

All this German talk about our con-
temptible little army is just camou-
fiage. The Hun fears us. The cry
raised when a German city was
bombed recently by air planes tells
the story: 1.-THE Americans are com
ing!" The same cry was heard when
the daring raid was made last week
on the German U-boat bases on the
Holland coast: THE Americans are
ooming!" Yes, the Americans are
coming, Mr.. Hun. Make no mistake
about that. And we are going to get
you, too.

Germany is Afraid.


tFyom the Chicago Evening Post.
Trsinlosd after trainlosd of wounded is
crossing Belgium from the scene of Ger
many's desperate struggle, and the unend-
ing stream of the MANNED ana dying is
disturbin the minds OF those who wit
ness it.
This is the price-for what?
Thus far nothing but q wilderness of
blighted fields and ruined villages. Thus
far no objective has been realized that can
begin to justify the investment of German
blood, nor even to excuse or palliate the
extravaganza with which Won linden
burg has spent the lives at his command.
And yet the expenditure goes on. Di-
vision after division is hurled in, and
withdrawn, broken, decimsted, fit only
for some quiet sector where it can re-
cuperate. Germany is fighting with the
frenzy of fear.
Fear is often good spur to action, but
when it becomes master Of mans thought
and effort it is terrible master and one
that inevitably drives to destruction.
Germany fears America.
she mas wnistieo loudly TO keep up her
courage. She has lied to her people about
our preparations and our achievements.
She has belittled us and vowed that we
cannot place formidable army in France.
The Germans have been told that our
transports are sunk and that thousands,
ten of thousands, of our troops are
drowned.
But the high command knows better,
and the high command is afraid. Ger
many is striking with q blind fury
There is a mad Impotence about her man
ner of fighting that does not indicate cleai
and deliberate thought. One idea con-
troIs her: ave must win now or never
There is not time for elaboration
There is not time to halt, recsst her pro-
gram and renew the drive for the victory
that can come only through breaking the
allied line or forcing it back to the sea.
And so the price mounts up in dead and
wounded, and fear grows as the high
command realizes that back in Germany
the truth will gradually reach the people
and the cost will be counted.
So great price and-as yet-nothing to
show for it.

IN MEMORlAM.
NANCY NJ. BUTTON.

Is was with deep regret the friends OF
Miss Dutton learned of her death on
Thursday, April Is, at the age OF seventy
nine years. A life of rare usefulness has
just ended.
Nancy Maria Dutton was born in
Ellsworth, the daughter OF Samuel and
Alpha IPetersl Dutton, jr., and her
girlhood was spent In her native place,
where she was carefully nurtured.
With sweet, bright, joyous disposition,
she was q leader in the social set. A
musician of rare ability, she spent few
years in Boston periecting herself in
harmony, and for more than forty years
she taught music in Ellsworth. Many
are those Older grown, who remember
her patience and skill.
Early in life she became a member of
years was orgsnist of that church, later
taking the organ in the Catholic
church, and having charge of the music
there for twenty five years, endesring her
self in that society.
gentiewomsn OF Christian charity,
fine mental attainments, OF superior bust
ness ability, she kept herself in touch
with everything that pertsined to the
advancement and betterment OF mankind.
Unmurmuring, shv bore the weakness of
declining years with calm, sweet resig-
nation. Her place In the home, and in
the hearts OF her friends, can never be
replaced.
Love win dream and faith will trust,
Since He who knows our need is Just,
That life 10 ever LORD OF Death and Love can

Poor little Holland is "between the
devil and the deep sea-" While the
exact terms of the ultimatum which
Germany is said to have served upon

its acceptance will be violation OF

hard to preserve. But she has COM
mitted the objectionable sin of being
a small neighbor of the hateful Hun.
