The of. CT l was driving was with me at the t.mc the first one burst. It landed in the ba. k yard of the house we were in. and the force of the eXplO- sion sent Us all iu heap on the floor. The officer decided that We would get out of the place and find some nice, quiet spot to spend the night. We left at once and went about five miles down the road until We came to field am- bulancc. We found that they had some spare StrctchcrS. so we decided to stay there. The officers servant carried stretchers in for all of Ills, and after having something to cat we went right to sleep, as we were tired out.
 l don't believe We had been asleep more than an hour when a shell landed in that field ambulance. It tore through the roof and burst in the room next to us. killing and wUuudng eighteen men who had already been wounded once. I got up ia Il hurry, but found that the officer was before me, and when l reached the car he was making himself comfortable in the tonneau. took my waterproof sheet and blankets and made myself q bed on the CObblestones under the car. I slept like log until 1t began to rain, and then I got up in disgust and sat up the rest of the night in the driving seat.
 The next day We stopped in little village called Pradeles, the place where the Germans had stood priest up against the wall of his own church and shot him because he wouldn't give them the information they wanted.
 Across from this church was a little "estaminet," where I went to buy a bottle of wine to have with my dinner You can imagine my surprise when the Frenchwoman in charge called me an English pig" and said that she would sell nothing to the English. l told her what thought of her, and she told me what she thought of me.
 She said the English were thieves, murdererS and other nice things and informed me also that the only true gentlemen in the world were the Prus- sians. She certainly had me aroused, and I was going to arrest every one could find in the house until her daugh- Ear G..ssn ;1

She saw Ut once how things were ana led the old lady upstairs and then ex- plained that the Germans had taken her two youngest sisters away and that since that time her mother had been insane. -.-~ -
 It was outside of Pradelles that we ran into the Germans and had long distance scrap. We were not strong, and we didn't know how strong they were, so We were not pressing them very hard until some re-enforcements came up. l think they were In the same position, for they didn't try to get to close quarters. So We kept at 1t all afternoon until at night the Germans retired, and we camped little farther on and waited for our main body to come up. Our casualties numbered only about twenty dead, and we buried them in the churchyard before we left. B.
 Ipassed through Pradelles about two months later, and went into the churchyard where those chaps were buried. The people of the village have set little white crosses at the head of each grave On each cross are the name, number and regiment of the soldier lying below, and under that is "Mort de la Champ d'Honneur." It was most thoughtful thing for those poor peasants to do.
 It was in village called Outrasteene, quite near Pradelles, that I first saw the Prince of Wales. He was with Sir John French, and they were review ing q brigade that hadn't been in the country very long He Is nice look ing fellow, but very boyish in appear ance. He is liked by the men and quite often will go and sit among them and talk to them.
 Soon after this I received orders to prepare for a two day journey in the car. didn't know where I was to go until the night before was to start, and then I was told that l was to go to Paris to get an officer who was wait ing for me there. Of course l was de- lighted, for l hadn't been in any large city for long time.
 Paris is more than POO miles from where we were then, and my orders were to make it in one day. While 1t was Il long journey, felt that 1t would be well worth 1t, So l set out with light heart. At LillerS hit the main Paris road, and it was glorious. There Is no speed limit for dispatch car, and you bet was flying my blue and white flag that day. Straight down through St Venant, St. Pol, Doullens and Amiens I flew, and about 6:30 l came to the outskirts of Paris. l was surprised on entering the capital to find so few British soldiers. l knew that we had several permanent bases in the vicinity, and I expected to find the place swarming with TOmmies.
