youngster who looked strangely out of

said he was twenty years old, but he

We went ashore in our boats under a

capped without scratch.
We were mustered up on shore and
volunteers were called for, for sentry
duty. Murray volunteered. If he had
only gone on with the rest of us he
might have come through. After a
short wait we were given the order to
advance. The firing became heavier
about this time, so we went at the
double. We had not got very far be-
fore we had a fine little surprise party
handed US.
The front line was running over
what appeared tc be good, solid
ground, when they broke through and
fell into trenches 30 to 40 feet deep.
These trenches had been dug, covered
over with A-inch boards and then
with dirt, and were regular man-traps.
Sharp stakes were sticking out Of the
parapet and parados, and at the bot
tom were more stakes and rocks and
barbed wire.
We were advancing with bayonets
fixed and arms at the carry, so when
the first line fell, and some Of the
second, the boys of the third line came
running up, and in the scramble that
followed many Of the chaps in the
first few lines were bayoneted by their
comrades. l was In the third line, but

and did not fall in. You could not look

The morning came at last, and l
was detailed with a fatigue party
to the beach where we had landed
stores. When we got down to the
docks l missed Murray and asked
where he was. They said he had been
missing from his post not more than
an hour from the time we left.
I left my fatigue party, without
orders, and Joined in the hunt for
Murray. There were men searching
all along the docks and on the shore
to each side. Finally 1 saw a bunch
of men collect around a storehOuse
at the farther end of the docks on the
shore side. l ran up to them.
There was poor old Murray. They
were just taking him down. he had
been cruclfed against the wall of the
storehouse. There was a bayonet

foot and one through his stomach.

CHAPTER XII.
A Pal crueiHed.

When we got to "V" Beach on my
next trip the weather was really fine,
but 1t did not please US much, for as
soon as we got in range the enemy
batteries opened up on US and the
shell fire was heavier than any we
had been in before, though not more
effective. We drew in on a bright
morning about half past five or six,
with our convoy, the troopship Cham
pagne, ahead Of US and going slowly,
sounding all the way.
At this part of the shore there is a
dock about a mile and a half long,
running back into the country and
terminating in a road. The Cham
pagne was making for this dock,
sounding as she went. Suddenly, when
she was within 500 yards of the shore,
l saw her swing around and steer In
crazy fashion. We 1e6aa ASKING
each other what was the matter with
her, but we learned afterwards that
her rudder had been torn off, though
we never found out how, nor do think
anyone ever knew.
Then she went aground, with her
stern toward the shore and listed over
to port You could see different arti-
cles rolling out and down the side.
Then her back broke. The quarter.
deck was crowded with men half
dressed, with life belts on, jumping
over the side or climbing down. There
was an explosion and a cloud of black
smoke broke over us, and for a while
thought l was blinded.
All the time the shells were raining
In on US and on the Champagne.
When could see again I saw the men
on the Champagne climbing down the
starboard or shore side. One chap was
going down hand over hand along a
stanchion, when another fellow above
him let 60 and slid right down on him.
The first man fell about thirty feet,
landing in the water with his neck
doubled under him. Our lifeboats and
launches were out picking up sur
vivors.
Those who got safely over the side
started to swim ashore, but when they
had gone only little way they found
they could wade in. When the water
was only up to their waists they came
upon barbed wire entanglements and
not a man got ashore that way but
was scratched and clawed and man.

though, were killed by shrapnel while
they were in the water.
On board the Cassard our guns had
been busy oil the time, and 1t was not
long before we put one enemy bat
terry out Of commission. We had suf-
fered bit, too, but not enough to
worry US. There were about 5000 men
on the Champagne, l think, and at
least a third were killed or drowned,
and the casualties must have been
almost two-thirds. The ship was just
mass of wreckage.
