WITH THE AMERICANS ON
THE METZ FRONT. Sept 2i.-
The Germans on the Metz front
are jumpy because OF their anxiety
regarding American plans for the
immediate future.
This state OF mind was RESPONSE
BILE for two heavy raids on our posi-
tons northwest OF Thiaucourt yes
terday. The boches attempted TO
gain the same position In both at
tacks. but were driven back with
heavy. losses.
Some OF the Germans went thru
our artillery barrage. but these
were cut down by rifle fire or were
bayonetted. There has been no
other infantry fighting here for
the past several hours.
Even the artillery activity has
lessened as the armies take cover
In their newly constructed trenches
and dugouts.
Patrols Arc Busy
American patrols continue TO in
spect the Hindenburg line every
night. These patrols also prevent
the Germans from exploring the
areas in front OF their wires.
The rear areas have now been
practically cleaned up. Huge boxes
OF captured German clothing. guns
ammunition and other supplies are
being hauled 10 the rear.
Refugees are returning 10 their
homes in recaptured villages after
four years absence. attempting to
find their houses among the ruins
which have been left everywhere
The doughboys are assisting in this
work OF rehabilitation.
The Americans are more than
ace-high with the Inhabitants.
Monsieur Mericier sent his wife and
two daughters TO Nancy when the
boches invaded Thiaucourt in 1914.
He stayed behind to care for their
home, expecting the enemy would
soon be driven out
For four years the Germans made
him quarter officers in his home
and slave for them. During the
advance the report reached the
German officers that the Americans
were entering the town. All but
a major fled. He ran up stairs
to pack his things When he came
down American bayonets caught
him at the door.
Following closely upon the heels
OF the doughboys came Mericier's
wife and daughters. II was n glad
reunion. after four years OF anxious
separation.
Mericier's family now cannot do
enough for the Americans.
