Of the officers that the story is about

He said there were two Limey off,

about the German shells which the
Turks were using One OF the officers
said they were no good because they
did not burst. Just about that time
a shell came along and they picked
themselves up quite a distance from
where they had been standing. An
other shell whizzed by and landed fiat
ON the side OF the road. The officer

CHAPTER XIV.
The crolx de Guarre.


when we had been on the shore
for about three weeks we found our
selves one morning somewhere near
Sedd.el-Bahr under the heaviest FIRE
ever experienced. Our guns and the
Turks were at II full blast, and the
noise was worse than deafenlng.
A section Of my company was lying
,ut in shell hole near the commu-
nication trench with nothing 20 do
but wait for shell 10 find them. We
were stlfr and thirsty and uncomfort.
able, and had not slept for two nights.
In that time we had been under con
slant Are and had stood on several
raidlng artles and small attacks from
enemy -enches.
We hid no sooner got used TO the
shell hole and were making ourselves
as comfortable us possible in II when
along came shell OF what must have
been the Jack Johnson size. and we
were swamped. We had 10 dig three
OF the men out. and though one Of
them was badly wounded we could not
send him back TO the hospital. In
fact. the sbelling was so heavy that
none OF us ever expected to come out
Of II alive.
So, Il was like keeping your own
death watch, with the shells tuning
up for the dirge. It was impossible to
listen TO the shells. II you kept your
mind on the noise for any length OF
time II would split your eardrums, l
am sure. SO all we could do was to
my low In the shell hole and walt for
something to happen.
Then they began using shrapnel on
us, and one OF our machine gunners,

position. had his head taken clean on
his shoulders, and the rest Of him
landed near my feet and squlrmed u
little, like a chicken that had Just been
killed. 1t was awful to see the body
without any head move around that
way, and we could hardly make our
selves touch 1t for some time. Then
we rolled It to the other side Of the
hole.
Then, to one side of us, there was
a more violent explosion than any yet,
The earth spouted up and fell ON us,
and big clouds OF black smoke, sliding
along the ground, covered our shell
hole and hung there for some time.
One OF our sergeants, from the regular
French infantry, said It was a shell
from a Turkish 155-mm. howltzer.
That was only the first one. The
worst thing about them was the smoke
