MASTERTON AVIATOR.
OPERATING IN MESOPOTAMIA. Writ&ig to his partner (Mr Harry Turner, of Masterfcon), Mr L. Pitcher, who is now in the Aviation Flying Corps camp at Busra, Mesopotamia, says that he is 'sick" of Mesopotamia, and would be glad if he could get to France or any European country. He hoped, however, that tiiey would soon be moving up to higher country, which would be more congenial. Mr Pitcher was air mechanic for Mr Scotland, the aviator who visited New Zealand some time ago. Mr Scotland has been sent back to India, suffering with a bad throat. The trouble is an old eno, and Mr Pitcher says ho will not be surprised if Mr Scotland returns to New Zealand. The climate of Mesopotamia did not agree with him at all Mr Pitcher says that Mr Stan Brewster, of Wellington, 'who is in the same aviation camp, is in good health.
