  • Alberta RCMP Want To Return Letters Written By A Woman And A Soldier During WW2
RIMBEY, Alta. — RCMP are trying to find relatives of a woman and a soldier who wrote letters to each other during and after the Second World War.
 
Mounties found a bundle of the hand-written letters in a stolen vehicle earlier this month in central Alberta.
 
The names on the envelopes are Margaret Clark and Mungo Clark, a gunner who served in the Canadian 11th field artillery regiment.
 
Some of the envelopes show addresses in Hamilton, Regina and Craik, Sask.
 
RCMP say the letters are likely to be of sentimental value.
 
They say they will keep the letters safe in the hope they can be returned.
