Silently the ranks broke, and the men
went out into the fields and woods
around. eagerly searching for the are
autumn flowers y good fortune they
found cottage garden which had es-
capped the invaders and from it they
plucked great sheaves of chrysanthe-
NUNS. Then they returned to the
trenches, where the company fell into
rank again and, with its captain at the
head, the company lined up around the
four English graves One by one the
men laid their offerings of flowers al
the foot of the wooden crosses, each
saluting as he did So Then with a
