Lieut.. Thomas B. Marshall has

Thirtieth Division. They are as fol,

cans on the left of the attack had
been less wholehearted fighters, and
could have curbed their impatience
to get at and kill the enemy in front,
they would have had fewer casualties
But the episode would have been
less glorious.
"Australians were to follow up be-
hand and they have spoken to me in
terms only of superlative praise of
the way the Americans behaved. An
English colonel, himself the holder
of the Victoria Cross, and something
of a judge, has made memorandum
on the Americans charge and speaks
of it in highest possible terms. The

"How difficult the ground was is,
perhaps, best shown by the fact that
it was not till after three days more
hard fighting that the Australians
succeeded in finally mopping up all
the defences which the Americans
then overran at one splendid burst,
and other divisions of Home troops
on the left completed the capture Of
Guoy and LIE Catelet. The American
performance that day was truly mag
nifcent, as their fighting has been
on every occasion when they have
fought with British troops on this
front" ."-Lendon Times, Oct. z. = -

ed with their faces to the enemy
and mot in one case was there man
moving backwards when killed." The
success of the Southerners on the
right was perfect, and without the
gallant fighting of the New York
troops on their left, it would have
been impossible for the Southerners
to have made their advance He con-
cluded by saying: THE officers and
men did all that it was humanity pos
sible for brave men to do, and their
gallantry in this action must stand
out through all time in American

great achievement for the most ex-
perienced soldiers in the allied arm
les. For inexperienced troops, as the
Americans were, it was truly extra
ordinary performance.
"The American troops were South
erners, chiefly Carolinians and men
of Tennessee and New Workers. All
alike went straight into the German
defences, which were of a most for
midable kind, and swept on to their
objectives. The impetuasity of their
advance made possible the great ad-
'ance of the British Ninth Corps on

too fast and too far, you know.
Nests of Germans, who skulked in
the ramifcations of the tunnel and

left undestroyed as the advance
streamed on, and these were reen-
forced by other enemy, who trickled
outward through the barrage on
