gate and led his little band of men, one
platoon of Company NJ, 600 yards down
narrow court swept by the enemys fire,
and he was preparing TO force one of the
gates to the Forbidden City when he was
ordered back.
Captain Martins charge and retreat
formed one of the most notable incidents
of the campaign. He marched his half
company up to the outside gate early in
the morning. The gate was heavily bar
ricaded and the wall was manned with
troops. Aided by Captain Reillys battery
Of light artillery, the Chinese troops were
dislodged and the gate was taken, where
a little later Captain Reilly was killed.
The gate opened to one of the principal
approaches to the gate of the Imperial City.
The approach was about 100 yards wide,
walled on either side, and its length of
60 yards was bare except for Straggly grass.
For more than an hour Captain Martin and
his men advancing faced a continuous fire,
which swept the court. and they had
reached the wall of the Imperial City when,
under an agreement of the allied COM
manders, they were ordered to withdraw
under the same fire.
Chaplain Leslie r. Groves, by virtue of
his office as spiritual adviser, was not in
cuded liz the roster of fighting officers of
the Chinese campaign, but he proved him
self no less the hero and won the undying
admiration of every man of the regiment
who served in China. During the fight

tinually exposed himself to aid the
wounded. He worked increasingly in the

refused to give up. When the men were
forced to lie down after a hard days
march without their suppers, and the next

of cheer. He was al the front continually,
and when the march was ended he had the
official recognition of General Chaffee for
conspicuous bravery and gallant conduct.
THICK OF THE FIGHT.
Capt. H G.. Learnard, adjutant of the
Fourteenth, followed Musician Titus to the
top of the Picking wall, Aug. IA, and direct
ed there the fight made by little band
from the Fourteenth, which was the open
ing wedge in the storming of the city. The
rush to the wall was made across the zone
of the enemy's fire, through a storm of
lead. AT the base of the wall the Ameri-
cans were protected from the fire.
The order to scale the wall, a seeming i'm
possibility, was scarcely given before the
men were swarlning up its nearly perpen-
dicular sides like flies, crawling to the
ledge sixty feet above them. There were
no scaling ladders They dug with fingers
and toes into tie crevices of the masonry,
weighted down with their arms and ammu-
milton, death on. one side from Chinese bull
let's, from a fall into the abyss on the
other.
Captain Learnard was among the first to
reach the top and assisted in dragging up
the cOlors and the men. The fight there
was almost hanl to hand for a short time.
Captain Learnsrd was in the thick of it,
and in immediate command, until the Chi
nese fire was sTlenced and a way into the
outer city was opened after hour and
halfs desperate fighting. Captain Learn
ards conduct was so distinguished for sig
nal bravery that he received the personal
congratulations. and recommendations of
General Chaffee. Colonel Daggett and the
officers of the allied armies.
