" Upon my second visit, February 10th, there was a great reception by the authorities. Mr. 124 A Yankee Major Invades Belgium Cornelius Debruyn headed a committee to give a civic welcome, making an address, most pathetic and inspiring. The substance of his remarks was that the Belgian people regretted that any bitter- ness should come between them and the Germans who had been friends for many centuries. He ex- pressed a hope that the time might hasten when the terrible war should cease, true ju...stice and equity be meted out to all and the wounds be healed. He voiced also in behalf of his town thankfulness to the American people and to Gen- eral Booth. " I replied by saying that the remarks of Mr. Debruyn conveyed the finest spirit that I had ever heard expressed ; that I purposed on my return to America to make this known to the American people and that nothing would be of greater in- spiration to our country which loved and appreci- ated the sacrifice of Belgian people. " I was entertained at the home of a brother of Ensign Yandercam, who is superintendent of one of the largest glass factories in Belgium.
