RAYMOND GILLETTE
DESCRIBES BATTLE
MinOt Soldier, Who Was Wounded,
Tells of Red Hot Time With the
BOches-Tells How Frank
Midak Met Death.

The press dispatches under date Of
Feb. contained graphic description
Of the first hard, American battle
resulted in the death of one Minot
young man, Frank Midak, and the in
jury to Raymond Gillette, son of Mrs.
f. A. Geer, wife Of the manager of
the l. H. G. collection department, of
this city. Many will remember read
ing the story Of the battle, but at the
time none Of us here knew that our
own Minot boys had taken part in it,
and that they had performed feats Of
valor that day that will gain recogni-
ton for them from our government.
Even after receiving wounds, the
North Dakota boys refused to leave
the field, but chose to stay and fight.
Raymond Gillette, who suffered a
scalp wound, was one of the soldier
lads who stayed by the side of their
! Khaki clad pals until the German drive
had been stopped. Raymond does not
boast of the part he took in the ac-
ton, but the Independent has learned
of this from other sources.
Mrs. Geer received an interesting
letter this week from Raymond, writ
ten March 7. Raymond, who is only
says in part:
"Dear Mother:-I received your
most welcome letter when in the
| front line trenches and you can never
imagine how happy it made me feel.
I received the box from the l. H. c..
and it was certainly nice of them to
remember me with such fine presents.
Everything they sent me was useful
and seemed to be needed at the time
of receipt. / was in the front line at
the time and my feet were wet and
cold, which Of course is to be expect
ed, especially while in the trenches,
so l put on both pair of heavy socks
| and felt hundred per cent better.

| ceipt in case anything happens.
1--WE had considerable excitement in
| the trenches the last time and l will
tell you as much about it as l am al
lowed. We were in the first real gas
attack that the Americans have re-
ceived in the trenches. / got a couple
of whiffs of it, but not enough to
bother me great deal. | also took
part in the largest attack the Ger
mans have launched against the Am
erican troops and believe me, Sher-
man was right when he said that war
is hell But l felt sorry at that for
the Boches, for they sure met hot
reception, when they came into our
trenches. 1t was a grand little bat
tie while it lasted and one that l will
never forget Frank Midak was
killed instantly, large shell bursting

right at his side. He went in good
way as long as he was one of the I'M
lucky ones, because he never knew
what hit him. He was good soldier
and brave one, but we cannot ex-
pect to go thru this war without los
ing men right along, so therefore we
the best of it.
I met one Of the men from the old
company and he said he had met Capt
Gross and all the corporals and ser
geants."
Another letter, written on March
II, follows:
Dear Mother and Ed:
This leaves me feeling 0. k. and hav-
ing a good time and I hope will find
you both the same. We are out of
the trenches now and are drilling, just
three hours and a half in the fore
noon, having the remainder of the day
to ourselves. That is what | call tax
| ing life rather easy, especially after
| being in the trenches for such a long
stretch. Of course, going back to the
! trenches doesn't worry US any, as we
have been "blooded" as the British
call it, so we are now regular soldiers,
ready for the trenches at any time.
was given a twenty-four hour pass
the other day and went to an adjacent
town nearby and paid Captain Gross,
1t. Hayes, Lantz, White, jim Dough-
erty, Herman Christensen, George and
Bill Marsh, Harry-in fact all Of the
Old Minot boys who you know, and
they were all feeling fine and getting
so fat that they can hardly blink their
| eyes. The 10th remained itact, as
far as the. officers and enlisted non
CONS were concerned. They have
charge of all the fatigue work, ETC.,
in training school, and as a result,
are taking life easy, too The COM
panies have been filled up with what
we call "casuals," men from the diff
ferent hospitals thruout France, men
who have become separated from
their own organizations. These men
do the work around the camp and our
old men watch them. Pretty much of
a snap Don't you think so?
The Captain was tickled to death to
see me, running up and hugging me
and everything else. And believe me
he didn't have thing on me, for
was so glad to see him that l could
hardly talk. He told me that he had
heard was dead and buried long ago
and every such thing. He said that
the Minot paper reported that was
killed in action and that they had
stopped dance at the Elks when the
report came in, etc. Believe me-
mother, was awful sorry to find out
about it because knew that you
would be worried to death about it
and didn't want you to worry at all
If could have had my way about it
you nor no one else in Minot would
ever have known about it, as it was
nothing anyway, just little cut and
knew that you would necessarily
worry when there was no need for it
wasn't going to tell you but one Of
my officers told me that the War De.
partment would notify you regardless
so thot that had better tell you
also, in order that you wouldn't worry
too much. l hope from now on that
you won't pay any attention to any
such reports, as they are generally
overdone anyway.
When the other fellows from thu
old company saw me, they told mi

that | was looking fleshier than ever,
so you can see that trench fighting
didn't bother me very much.
The other boys, that is Harry and
the bunch, do not expect to go to the
trenches for six or eight months and
maybe not then, so you can see that
they are resting easy Harry gave,
or rather he told me to give you his
best regards. He is driving big
Packard truck and has fine job.
Our company is playing game of
ball with tx" Company of the 18th
and l intended to play, but a truck
came along just before the game was
supposed to commence, so caught a
ride and went down to the 10th to
see Tom Carroll. He is looking fine
after just coming out of the trenches.
He told me to say "hello" to you for
him.
Well, mother, will close for this
time, as there isn't any more news,
but will write again soon and hope to
hear from you in the very near fu-
ture.
Your loving son,
RAYMOND.

to the voters of North Dakota, set
ting forth lessons to be drawn from
the victorious drive made by the 10y
alists Of Minnesota as axempIified by
the Monday ballot in which the loyal
list candidate for governor obtained
a majority of at least $4,000 votes.
Mr.. Nelson's statement follows:
Z THE result OF the Minnesota cleo
ton suggests two thoughts that may
be worth while for some people in
North Dakota.
''First. A man who tries to ride
a fence and not belong to either side
in case of war is liable to be eyentu-
ally shot at by both sides. We have
few fence riders and band-Wagon
artists among some OF our would be
politicians. They are slackers, be-
cause they should be fighting for one
side or the other.
Second. Many-a man in Mime
sofa now wishes that he had worked
and voted for the side that stands
