Last week the Rev. Father Bernard Robertson, C.P., Marrickville, left Sydney as chaplain on one of our troopships. His genial and kind disposition should make him a great favourite amongst the soldiers. Father Bernard left these shores some six months ago as chaplain on a troopship, and returned to Sydney on a hospital ship. His many friends will earnestly pray for his safe and speedy return to Australia.
