Men of the 18th Battalion Starting On Their Long Cross-Country Grind

Captions reads: This picture was taken by the Free Press camera man from the head of two-mile hill this morning as the troops proceeded south from the city via the Wharncliffe road. The company to which the St. Thomas men are attached broke from the main body at Lambeth and proceeded to St. Thomas while the remainder turned toward Byron. The intention was to return late this afternoon via the north river road.
