BRITISH TERRITORIALS
PROVING FINE FIGHTERS. -
LONDON, Dec. 14. The correspondent of "The Times' 5 in North France says that the number of Territorials at the front is much largerthan is "generally supposed. "The British Territorial has proved himself as fine a fighter as que would wish to meet. He shares with J the Regulars a personal as- ! ceh.dancy.'.Wei* the Germans. The Terri torials have" been entrusted'with heavy work, and many are now holding trenches against superior odds. Their high daring and'fine enthusiasm act as a tome to the Ttegulars when the latter are threatened with trench, weariness. They fight with wonderful restraint and self-possession, and are gaining the respect of seasoned veterans." ,x ~ '
