SOLDIERS HOLD REVEL
CURRIE LIBEL DECISION DEFENDANTS TO APPEAL (United P.A.—By Telegraph Copyright) (Australian Press Association.) Kec. 9.5 a.ci. COBURG, Wednesday. The decision of the court in awarding General Sir Arthur Currie £IOO damages for libel against the publishers of the “Port Hope Guide” will be appealed against. Following the verdict, returned men hastily organised a pv#!ie dinner, and held high revels for five hours in an hotel which was christened “this new war college” by the defence counsel. General Currie received a telegram from the father of Private G. Price, the only Canadian killed on Armistice Day, resenting the recalling of distressing memories, and wishing General Currie success in the litigation.
