CANADIAN DIVISION
INCLUDES MANY CITIZENS OF U.S.A. FULL-BLOODED INDIANS IN TARTAN. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) LONDON. August 3. The second Canadian division which has just reached England, includes men from all walks of life, even fullblooded Indians who are surprisingly garbed in the bonnets and tartan of a Scottish regiment. The Indians announced: ‘'We have come to defend our home.” But most remarkable is the number of United States citizens. Mr David Cross, Mayor of Windsor and chairman of the Dionne Quintuplets Trust, is a private. Four Murphy brothers from ti West Ontario regiment announced, “Our five other brothers will be over soon.” This regiment also boasts two sets of twins and three O’Connor brothers and three Nichols brothers.
