Under heavy shellfire, Lieut. Gale went out and unhitched the killed and wounded horses, so enabling the chief transport to move away to cover`, the first letter beginning innocuously with a description of the Channel crossing but immediately Gale finds himself on the Somme the sector of the Western Front, Just a great line in haste in the trenches. I`m still alive & kicking. I am quite happy out here tho` I think I can flatter myself on having seen quite a little bit of Hell. Conjure up in your mind the filthiest & most diabolical sight imaginable & you`ll be somewhere near the mark... don`t worry as I`m as fit as a fiddle, only after a time dead bodies etc. begin to smell!! & it`s beastly bumping into them at night` (letter 15, c. 30th September 1916), `I am still happy tho` I`ve seen Hell - I mean this. Real true unadulterated horror. But one can make it what one likes. I keep smiling. By your letter I see you misunderstood my appointment. I am in command of a section & not second in command of a section. The day before yesterday I was personally congratulated by the General for good work in the front line so I am feeling rather lucked about it all. These were the circumstances. On coming into the front line I found I had only three guns (the rest being either knocked out or lost) to hold a front of very nearly a mile. However there were two battalions their each having some lewis guns. So I went up to the battalion commanders (Colonels) & gently informed them that I was going to take over all their Lewis guns under my command, to which they readily agreed...`, (letter 17, 30th September 1916), `Your joke re the German emperor`s new order re socks....

SIR ROBERT MATTHEW, ARMCHAIR, 1960S, with loose squab cushion, Note: Robert Matthew was the son of John Matthew (also an architect, and the partner of Sir Robert Lorimer). He was born and brought up in Edinburgh, and attended the Edinburgh College of Art. In 1946, Matthew moved to London, becoming Chief Architect and Planning Officer to the London County Council, where he served from 1946 to 1953, working on the post-war reconstruction of Greater London and masterminding the Festival of Britain including such buildings as the Royal Festival Hall, 1951. In 1956, with Stirrat Johnson Marshall, Robert Matthew established the firm of RMJM (Robert Matthew, Johnson Marshall) in Edinburgh and London. Their first project was New Zealand House in the Haymarket, London. In 1953 he returned to Edinburgh to become the first Professor of Architecture at the University of Edinburgh, where he established the new Department of Architecture in collaboration with RMJM, in a manner that has been compared to that of Walter Gropius at the Bauhaus. He continued as Professor there until 1968. The Matthew Architecture Gallery is now housed in the Department in his honour. In Edinburgh Matthew was closely involved with Basil Spence and Alan Reiach in the University`s development plan for George Square, and also involved with the Royal Commonwealth Pool, British Home Stores on Princes Street, Edinburgh Airport, Lothian Regional Council Building and Wester Hailes Education Centre.
