Look at young Gordon McLellan; he's only seventeen\u003cbr\u003eand he's enlisted.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThat got me. It was then that I made up my mind I was going whether it\u003cbr\u003elasted three months, as they said it would, or five years, as I thought it\u003cbr\u003ewould, knowing a little bit of the geography and history of the country we\u003cbr\u003ewere up against.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe were all sitting round the supper table at Mrs. Harrison's in Syndicate\u003cbr\u003eAvenue, Edmonton, Alberta. War had been declared ten days before, and there\u003cbr\u003ehad been a call for twelve hundred men from our city. Six hundred were\u003cbr\u003ealready with the colors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNow, to throw up a nice prosperous business and take a chance at something\u003cbr\u003eyou're not sure of getting into after all, is some risk, and quite an\u003cbr\u003eundertaking as well. But I had lived at the McLellens' for years and knew\u003cbr\u003eyoung Gordon and his affairs so well that I thought if he could tackle it,\u003cbr\u003ethere was no reason why I shouldn't.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Well, Bill, I'm game to go, if you will,\" I said. Bill had just declared\u003cbr\u003ehis intention rather positively, so I was a bit surprised when he replied\u003cbr\u003ein his old familiar drawl:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"All right, but you'll have to pass the doctor first. I'm pretty sure I can\u003cbr\u003eget by, but I'm not so certain about you.\"","brand":"SAP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47165315711216,"sku":"2940013417786","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013417786_p0.jpg?v=1763581110","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013417786","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
