NOT AFRAID
ENGLISH WOMAN’S LETTER
BASINGSTOKE.
My Dear Frances: I have come across no one really afraid. The villagers are quite calm. So are the people on the trains, though it took us ages coming down to London last Friday owing to a raid and we had to remain stationary with the blinds drawn. The protection in moments of danger has seemed miraculous. A woman I saw last week knew it was divine protection in answer to her prayers, for 200 incendiary bombs fell near her cottage. one within four yards, and two others in her garden. No one was touched or hurt and nothing hit the cottages. We think the enemy must have thought their tiny outhouses were the aerodrome. . . - ALICE.
(— A letter, published by the “Christian Science Monitor," written by an English woman to a friend in America).
