East Sandling
Aug 10/15

Dear Pa,

Got your letter with much appreciated enclosure last Thursday. Got it cashed A.K. Now look, you write Mother and get her to deduct that amount from my next cheque and pay you because that is the way I instructed it should be. Thanks for sending it tho.

Was to Canterbury a week ago Saturday for a weekend. Saw the Cathedral, city wall, Stephenson's first steam engines and everything worth seeing. It was awfully interesting on account of my knowledge of English History. It would be hard to describe all I saw, so am sending a booklet of postcards which shows practically everything.

Was to London this week and with Carl Camestock. Gee: we had a peach of a time. Was all over the deuce and saw "Buckingham Palace", "Westminster Abbey", "British Museum", "Wax Works" and was all thru Hyde Park etc. The people there treat a Canadian fine and the hardest job is to shake the girls, and a lot of them real decent girls too. But one can't see anything if he had a "bunch of skirts" with him, besides resting a lot more, so we used to lie like the devil and promise most anything to get rid of them. The darn things invite you in to supper, "pubs" and everything else, but "nothing doing".

Never got lost but went as far as a radius of seven miles away from "Charing Cross" station. Just ask a "Bobbie", he's the travelling dictionary in these parts.

Got our bayonets resharpened today with a razor edge. Gee: they feel good. Expect an inspection on Monday by Lord Kitchener and the King, then it's a darn short time for us here if it takes place when we expect. Sleep out almost every night and march all day.

So you think you know a little bit of army life, do you? Well, believe me: you know absolutely nothing of active service conditions. We were nearly starved to death, but today the General raised the devil about the graft and we got one addition to our supper instead of having tea and dry bread. Why look: I've marched all day on three pints of tea and two slices of bread with rotten margarine instead of butter.

We've mutined more than once just on account of the grub, so don't think I was slinging the "bull" and you can just take it from me. I wouldn't want anybody related to me to join the damn thing. There's more graft than at Ottawa, and us poor buggers suffer. What do you think of marching twenty miles on 1 smoked herring and rotten too crud about four miles long. 2 slices of dry bread and a pint of tea, with full kit, rifle and bayonet, besides carrying the remainder of the 1 lb. of dough for your meal at night, and sleeping out in the pouring rain for an hour about. First dig trenches 1 hour and its raining like merry old hell all the time. The other night I dug from 10 p.m. to 4:30 a.m. and was wet continually during the two days we were out, but never had rhumatism anything to speak of. Then get arrested if you curse things blue in general, but they've quit that a good deal as the fellows sing first, then curse the staff officers alternately, and dig at the same time.

I smashed two pick handles on purpose and got an extra hour rest by it. Just remembered a joke Walter told me, and worked it there O.K.

So you see it's all true. Just wait till you talk to some of the fellows when they come back.

You needn't show this to Mother, but it's the solid truth. Everybody's "fed up" but we'll stick it to the end in spite of all, rather than be accused of having cold feet, but just wait, and if I'm ever lucky enough to meet some of the officers, NCO's etc in civie life, I'll square off a few accounts.

May not get a chance to write for a while if what we hear is true, but will do what I can. Have to scribble this any old way as I have to hustle.

Met a fellow in A. Co. who knew Rick Pentz in Boston , said he was driving a team and doing fairly well. This was quite a long while ago. Should think by the way he spoke that it was at least two years ago

Aerial duel of Folkestone and Dover last night. We witnessed it from the hill way back in the country. Could see shells burst and hear the guns. It got away in a damaged condition and did no damage while here. It is rumoured that it was captured in France.

A Submarine was captured yesterday off Hythe. Driven ashore by destroyers after first being caught in the net. The guns interrupted our lecture in the medical room. This was between 2 and 4 in the afternoon and we left camp last night on a march and also to sleep out.

I went about ten miles each way and maneouvered all night. Charging up a hill, full kit. Some fun. I guess not.

Get after that Phar. Society and give them hell. Inquire about me, will you? and see what's wrong.

Your Son,
Arthur

This long enough for once?

The following is from a newspaper clipping found in the family bible:

In Memoriam

PENTZ - In loving memory of Private Arthur Pentz, youngest son of F.E. Pentz, Hantsport, Nova Scotia, who died in hospital at Boulogne, France July 4, 1916 aged 21 years. His death was the result of shrapnel wounds received while fighting for Canada's honor. Deceased was a general favourite: He died the death of a hero. Inserted by a friend.

The family's own printed Memoriam card is also in the bible.



His sister Lottie told her daughters that the night that Arthur must have died, his mother Emily woke up screaming in the middle of the night. She ran in to see what was the matter, and Emily said she'd had a terrible dream about a boy in a bed, and one side of the bed was flat.

It was not until years later, when the boys who survived came back from the war, that the full story of Arthur's death came out. He had been shot twice in the leg as he had tried to get to an injured comrade, and then hadn't properly taken care of his leg and gangrene had set in. In the hospital they had first amputated the leg at the knee, and then were forced to try two more amputations at the thigh and the hip to try to save him, but to no avail. Indeed, one side of his bed would have been flat.

My grandfather and Arthur's brother, Frank William Pentz, also passed down a story about his brother. He told his sons that one night after his brother died, he heard a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw his brother standing there. He slammed the door in a panic, got hold of himself, and then opened the door again. There was, of course, no-one there, but he always felt it had been a true apparition.

Lottie, had always wanted to go to France and try to find Arthur's grave, and she finally went with one of her grandchildren, Guy, when he had finished school on a trip to Europe, including Boulonge. She was not to find it, however. She always kept a piece of paper he had given her before he went away saying who should get what if he never returned. He had told her that she could use his gun, but to grease it well first! Parents: Frederick Edwin PENTZ and Emily Isabella MYERS.

bullet Richard Dana PENTZ Parents: Robert William PENTZ and May Catherine MARR.

bullet Richard Edwin PENTZ was born on 23 Aug 1828 in Windsor Rd., Nova Scotia. He was buried in 1898 in Riverbank Cemetery, Hantsport. He died on 26 Oct 1898 in Hantsport, Nova Scotia. Richard was the seventh child of ten of Jacob Ernst and Ann Pence, nee Corkum.

In 1860 he married Agnes Sophia Corkum, who was ten years younger than he and his first cousin..The marriage licence was made out to Richard E. Pence of Dartmouth, but he signed his name "Pentz". A copy of his signature will be scanned into this document in the near future. His surety was Frederick Bacon of Dartmouth, coach maker, and marriage witnesses were James ?? and Nelson H. Corkum.

At the time of his marriage, Richard was a "keeper" at the Insane Asylum at Dartmouth. There is an amusing record at PANS of a Richard Pence applying for a fishing licence in Dartmouth from the governor of the asylum, maybe so he'd have something to do on his breaks!

Later on, Richard became a ship's carpenter. After his first child Fred was born in 1862, Richard apparently moved the family down to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, an obvious place to go for a man of his trade. They supposedly moved back to Nova Scotia when Fred was about eight, but that would mean that his daughters Ida May and Eudora Anne were born in the States, whereas their descendants are fairly sure they were born in Halifax..

In the Halifax City directory, Richard first appears in 1876 and then in the 1878 and 1879 ones as a carpenter living at 158 North. In the latter one it lists his son, Fred Pentz, drug clerk, as boarding with him. North Street at that time was at the far end of town, and 158 would have been down near the piers.

Richard died in 1898 aged 70 of heart disease and is buried in the Riverview Cemetery, Hantsport. His death was noted in the Hantsport newspaper. Agnes Sophia, who died in 1903 while living with her daughter Eudora Ann Elvey in Hantsport, died aged 65 of paralysis and is buried beside her husband. Parents: Jacob Ernst PENCE and Anna Maria CORKUM.

bullet Rudolph PENTZ was born @1713 in supposedly Hilbach, Hanover, Pfaltz, Germany. Rudolph Pentz, my emigrant ancestor in my paternal line, was born in 1713, supposedly in Germany. The circumstances which brought him and his family to Canada are not only interesting but an important part of Canadian history, and therefore we are lucky to be able to have such a good understanding of the events of which Rudolph was a part.

In 1749 an Englishman, Colonal Edward Cornwallis, became governor of Nova Scotia and in that same year founded the city of Halifax. Attempts to first colonize it with fellow Englishmen, mainly soldiers and sailors, weren't very successful, and so the next year Cornwallis requested the British Lords of Trade to send out more suitable settlers, preferably German farmers. The government made a contract with a man named John Dick to transport them, which he did for the next three summers. Hundreds of people made the voyage, mostly poor people from the Rhineland, drawn by the alluring handbills that had been circulated around the country in the German tongue. The British government promised that all the Germans who came to Nova Scotia would be given 50 acres of land free from all rent and taxes for ten years, and would be given food and clothing for the first year they lived there. They were also pormised guns and ammunition, tools for building houses and for farming and clearing the land, and for fishing.

Rudolph, according to the Pearl's manifest, was 38 years old and a farmer in the Palatinate when he took up the government's offer and sailed in 1751 to Canada from Rotterdam on the Pearl with his wife Johanna, three sons Johannes, George and Conrad (b.1741) and two daughters, Amelia (b@1734) and Catharina (b@1738). One of the daughters was over the age of 16 according to the ship's list and all of the other children under age.

Like many of the Germans, Rudolph was apparently too poor to pay his and his family's way. He was indebted for 4 1/2 freights (an adult was a full freight and a child a half freight, freights relating to how much sleeping space you were allotted on the ship) and cash lent which added up to f1.328.7.12 (whatever amount of money that was!) and by working for the Governor of Nova Scotia for one shilling (25 cents) a day, he would have eventually paid for their passage.

On arrival in Halifax, someone wrote his name down rather roughly as "Rutholff Bontz": Rudolph was illiterate and only made his "mark". On the ship's list, however the name is spelt "Pintz", and this has been found to be the most consistent form of spelling at the time. Other variations though were Pinz, Bentz, Benz, Pentz, Pentze, Pense and Pence! Of course the reason for this was that each person would just take down the name by ear, spelling it the way he thought it sounded and should be spelt.

Rudolph's first wife Johanna died soon after the journey in 1751 or 1752, supposedly after giving birth to a son, John Nicholas, in Nova Scotia. He was baptized in 1755 and in some genealogies is attributed to Rudolph's second marriage. An entry in Halifax dated April 15, 1752 tells of the marriage between Rudolph Pinz, widower, and Barbara Kuffer, widow. Barbara and her husband George, listed as a 38-year-old farmer from Alsace, had been on the "Pearl" as well. Rudolph and Barbara had three children: Elizabeth, 1755-1763, Johanna Christina bap. 1757 and Jane, bap. 1759. I have no information on the descendants of these children at this time.

The presence of about 2,500 of the German emigrants in Halifax soon proved to be not as desirable as they first had seemed. Since none of the land that had been promised them had been cleared or even marked out for them because of the threat of the Micmac Indians, they were forced to inactivity. Settled on a pair of rough lanes, Brunswick and Gottingen, running north from the Citadel slope and huddled together in boarded barracks, they quickly became a burden and expense to the authorities, as well as becoming very discontent amongst themselves. Rudolph, working to pay off his debts though, would have been helping build houses and more walls around the fort.

During his stay in Halifax, Rudolph's name and those of Amelia, Catherina, Conrad, George and Johannus appear on the Halifax Victualling List #3 for Aug-Oct 1752 under "Bentz", the list of settlers July 1752 for "Swiss and Germans in the North Suburbs" under "Pense", and the Compassionate Victualling List for Feb-Apr 1753.

In 1753 an uneasy peace was made with the Indians, and the fact brought relief to "the Palatines", as they were generally known. Cornwallis had been anxious to make another strong settlement on the coast and so took this opportunity to do so, moving almost all of the Germans to what is now called Lunenburg.

Each man was given a town lot, a garden lot and a farm near the town, the lots being drawn using a pack of cards. The Return of Arms (Dec. 1753) lists Rudolph as being in Steinfort's Division, the Return of Divisions (July 1754) shows him as being in Zouberbuhler's Division A-8 with a house (we see from the Registry of Town Lots 1760 that he sold it) and on the 1753-4 Allottment List, Rudolph is granted a 30-acre farm lot, the N.W. Range A-3. In 1760 though this was reduced to only half of the lot, a strange thing to do when he had such a large family. On the Live Stock Distribution List of 1754, he and a Johns. Young, both being on Lot 27, were awarded one cow and one sheep. He and his family is on the list of persons victualled in Lunenburg and Halifax between 23 Feb and 16 May 1756: Barbara, Catherine, Conradt, Elizabeth, George, Nicholas and Rudolf Pintz.

Rudolph Pintz's name also appears on the Cattle Expedition list of 1756. The purpose of the expedition was to round up and bring back all and any cattle left behind by the Acadians who had involuntarily left so suddenly in 1755. An assembly of Lunenburgers were gathered, and they marched through the woods from Lunenburg to the Annapolis Valley on blazed paths. Once there, they rounded up the cattle and other livestock and walked back to Lunenburg with the animals. The journey was longer than anticipated, and the men lacked provisions. All of their horses perished, and the men were lucky to return at all.

In 1763, Rudolph was given a 300-acre lot in the Second Division, C-10. This could be the same place that was named Pentz, "a settlement two miles upstream from the mouth of the LaHave river on the south side of it, about eight miles southest of Bridgewater and just southwest of Lunenburg, which was named after an early German settler." It is not currently a very large place; the population around 1960 was found to be only 52! There is also a Pentz brook which runs right alongside the settlement.

Unfortunately, after that entry in 1763 I have not found any more records pertaining to Rudolph. Therefore, the date of his death is not known. His second wife Barbara died in 1790 aged 68 and the fact recorded at St George's, Halifax and in the newspaper of the time.
