This lasted all night and until late Mon

THE German artillery fire at La Fcrt,
and Gaucher was very severe. From tn,
heights above the Grand MORN River the
line OF fire extended TO Sezanne on the
east and Vitry-le-Francois. The great
German guns did rrible execution at q
range of five miles. The allies artillery
was weaker at this long range, but tn,
German fire was not accurate The allie,
won ground foot by foot until they forced
the Germans back, getting at close quar-
ters. In some places the allies had to b'
