Can. Con. Hosp., Woodcote Park Epson, Surrey Nov. 14, 1918.

My dear Mother: -

Peace! Peace! Peace,

Well if it isn't peace it's the next thing to it and the jubilation couldn't have been greater. We got word of the signing about 9 A.M. Monday morning and of course the whole camp went just about crazy. Well about 2 P.M. I went to London and say I've seen a few crowds but the London crowd was the greatest, happiest and the craziest crowd I ever want to see, one could hardly move in the streets and the hollering and the flags were great - couldn't have been greater. Of course booze played a big part in the celebration. Monday, after wandering about town and joining in the joy as much as possible why I came home (camp I mean).
