automobile convoy opened fire. The
French officers were killed and the
platoon literally annihilated. Not one
of the troopers reached the automo-

gunners having been killed at their
positions.

in small groups, and at once began a
fierce interchange of shots at a dis
lance of fifteen yards. The Germans
who were crouching along the edge Of

courage.
