UNITED Press STATE Correspondent
London, Nov. 10.-(By mail to New
York. "A miie and half crawl with
five bullets in his body, under artillery
and rifle fire, was the awful expert
ence of Private Dan Hurst of the Cold
stream guards.
Writing to his wife, Hurst says,
Don't fret over me ! have five
wounds. but ! am a lucky chap to be
here to tell the tale, for if the shell
which hit me in the chest had explod-
ed bit lower / should have been kill
ed outright. Our ambulance men tried
to get us away but the Germans fired
upon them so they had to leave us to
take our chances. 1t rained in torrents
all that night (Monday) and the Ger
mans put sentries with bayonets over
us. They took all our food and water
away, and on Tuesday afternoon some
of them tried to make out that we had
been firing upon them. We asked how
that was possible when they had taken
everything from us, but they were go
ing to shoot us, when an officer came
up and stopped them.
On Wednesday they removed us to
the far side of a haystack out of their
line of fire, so we could not get hit,
but one of the British shells exploded
near us, and of course, i got hit. We
| thought it best to make dash for it.
could not walk and had to crawl on
my hands and knees with my wounds
bleeding, and while | was crawling
away they started to fire on us There
, were six of us who started but only
two of us finished. Our trenches were
only a mile and half away but it took
us four hours and half to crawal
there"
