We reached Volo' unassailed. The
town was full of refugees. Despair
was on their faces. AS we crossed
the villages people rushed to the plat
form inquiring whether it was true
that all was over. They were unable
to believe that the disaster was COM

followed us through the Thessalian
plain.
In Volo all are now preparing for
immediate departure.
Greek soldiers understand nothing
but to advance. They have not had suf-
ficient training to prepare for
an orderly retreat and as
consequence the order threw
them into indescribable confusion.
Men left their positions, the officers
being unable to control them. In vain
the bugle call was sounded. The SOL
diers thought that the Turks We're to
massacre all they found and that they
must seek refuge in Larissa imme-
diately.
Suddenly word ran through the bro
ken files: THE Turkish cavalry is
coming" This put an end to all re-
sistance. The reputation for ferocity
of the Turks had long been establish
ed. In five minutes the greatest pam
ic prevailed. All fled to the road lead
ing to Larissa. In the darkness the
wounded were trampled upon by. the
soldiers fighting their way. Cavalry
doomed up in the distance but it was
Greek cavalry. Still the soldiers fired
upon them;in the confusion 1 saw two
Greek regiments of infantry firing on
each other.
officers of the artillery, seeing that
they We're unable to stem the cur
rent, ordered a retreat to save the
guns. In places they had to dash
through the crowd which refused to
open ranks. followed the flying host
to Tyrnavo which was reached in less
than an hour kept on until 1 reached
Larissa by s o'clock. With me ar
