Brussels, Belgium, Sept. 10, 1922.
Oh! ] have 80 much to write about
! just don't know where to start! As
you see, we are in Brussels (Brux-
elles) and it is all SO wonderful.
am going TO tell you first about
the day in Southampton, England. I
mailed q letter to you just before
reaching it, SO you have all the news
Of the voyage. And today you should
get our cable.
They gave us temporary landing
cards SO we could get off (the alien
man did ithis.) Oh, yes, I'll have to
start back still earlier. We decided
to stay up until we reached South
ampton, and wouldn't have missed
it for worlds. We docked about 2:3O
a. m. (1:30 regular time, but all of
Europe is daylight saving, SO We put
our watches up an hour there). Mr..
Hewes and Mr.. Inder stayed up with
US and we ate sandwiches and drank
lemonade and walked on the deck and
then the ships doctor came along and
asked US down to his room where it
would be warm, and he told US Scotch
stories. Then about the last hour we
went up on deck. We passed Needles
Point on the Isle of Wight, which was
beautiful in the moonlight (full moon)
with light houses and small sail boats
that looked like phantom ships at
night looked black against the wa
ter. We went along the shore of the
Isle Of Wight which contains about
55 square miles, and then into the har-
Dor Of Southampton.
The Isle Of Wight is the famous wa
tering place-fashionable playground
for fashionable England. Going in,
we passed dozens of boats, mostly ly-
ing in the harbor, waiting to be towed
in, in the morning. We passed the
Olympic, one of the largest ships on
the sea-about 10000 tons. They all
looked SO wonderful in the moonlight.
Well, we went to bed at about three
o'clock. and had to get up at six
thirty, ~ they served an early break
fast to al the passengers. We saw
people off the boat, exchanged ad-
dresses, etc.

here, and tell You about the ships

I played . couple Of other accompani-

much good. They said hey couldn't
have had the concert but for us, and
the chief officer told US later that il
was the best ships concert they had
had for long time. Now III proceed:
The chief officer was very busy, Of
course, just landing. but nevertheless
he spent at least an hour with us
went off the boat with Us over to see
the special boat train for London. It
was interesting to see them with their
separate compartments and an out
side door to each. There We met Mr..
Hewes' mother and father who had
come down to meet him. We waited
until il pulled out, then the chief took
us part way out of the docks, then left
US. He had been so nice TO us that
we hated to see him go. Then we
walked up to the city. The Y. w.
directed US to the memorial to the Pill
grims who really sailed from S. H.
On the memorial are three tablets,
one to John Alden, who, himself. lived
in Southampton. We saw 18th CEN
tury tower fused for guarding.)
Then we took . street car (had to
get off to exchange some money into
English money! and went to the end
Of the line and back. II was . beauti-
ful rde. just parks and beautiful
homes. Saw . beautiful memorial TO
the Titanic victims and another to the
heroes Of the late war. We went back
to the boat in time for lunch, and
then we packed q little, and went out
to watch them unload cargo, by win
ches and big cranes. They had worked
from 3 .. m. (just outside our win
dow) until about I p. m. We sailed
from s. H. about s o'clok and for
two hours il was = marvellous sight
all along the coast. Everything is
green, not an inch Of bare earth, and
no tumble-down buildings.

We passed the big naval hospital, used
for all our soldiers in the war-one Of
the most beautiful sights ever saw

spread over SO much ground along the

bile you pass II on the right. The au-
tomobiles are very low, or very high.
But TO continue
We passed many boats again, saw
the most beautiful castle on the
shore. some pure white, others gray
with green vines all over them.
Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, q fash
ionable resort, was beautiful. We
passed many cities, but don't know
what they all were. In one place we
passed seven battleships and several
forts which were built right out in the |
channel. The English channel was
quite smooth, going our direction,
even though we had some wind and
rain.
That evening we gave them some |
music and talked to the doctor and
his wife. who got on at 8. H., until
eleven.
