Six Veterans Back in Homes Here

Unknown to all six more men slipped back into the city either Sunday afternoon or evening. The blame for their not being met is attributed by the Soldiers’ Aid Commission to the failure of the Canadian Pacific Telegraph Company to deliver a telegram. Apparently a telegram arrived at 4.30 on Sunday afternoon for the secretary, Mr. George MacDonald, and he did not receive it until after 9 o’clock on Monday morning. The men who returned are:  Privates G. Aitkins, 12 Duke Street; A.V. Bellingham, W. Borthwick, 131 Dundas; J. Johnson, Ohsweken P.O., and J.A. Kerr, 80. Eight more are expected home today, Privates A. McIntyre, 283 West Street; J. Pointon, 18 Sarah; J.H. Rourke, 97 Murray Street; E. Sims, 30 Lewis; W.Y. Vair, 39 Mohawk, F.L. Vansickle, 78 Marlborough, F.J. Wickson, 2 Park Avenue.
