Come to me, from time to time, and I will give you all the information I secure." Dr.Gys had accompanied Jones and Mr.Merrick into Calais to-day, and while he had little to say during the various interviews his observations were shrewd and comprehensive.
When they returned to the deck of the _Arabella_, Gys said to the girls: "There is nothing worth while for us to do here.
The only wounded I saw were a few Frenchmen parading their bandaged heads and hands for the admiration of the women.
The hospitals are well organized and quite full, it is true, but I'm told that no more wounded are being sent here. The Sisters of Mercy and the regular French Red Cross force seem very competent to handle the situation, and there are two government hospital ships already anchored in this port.
We would only be butting in to offer our services.
