HAD AIMED A LITTLE LOW
Gunner's Error Probably the Only
Thing That Saved Flock Of Black
birds From Annihilation.

A party of gentlemen at n hotel
were telling stories one night recently
Of famous shots and how many
quails, partridges, ducks and other
birds had been killed at single dis
charge. After listening to what
seemed willful exnggeration by differ
ent narrators, stranger who was pres
ent volunteered his experience Of his
only use of the fatal double-barreled
gun as follows:
II went into the field one day to try
cunning. The only game discovered
was an immense flock of blackbirds.
i should say there were 10000 in the
flock. Slowly crawled up to them
and when not more than four rods
away the birds arose In n solid mass.
I fred both barrels. and how many do
you think killed?"
Different guesses were made by the
party, ranging from 20 to 100.
"Not one" said the stranger, "but
i went out with my brother to look
for the results, and picked up four
bushels of legs. l had shot little un-

GEORGE q. M'MuRTRY,
Captain, 30eth Infantry.

Captain McMurtry received the Dis
tinguished Service Cross for conspicu-
Gus gallantry in action at Charlevans,
in the Forest d'Argonne, France, Oc-
tober 2 to 8, 1913. Captain McMurtry
commanded battalion which was cut
off and surrounded by the enemy and,
although wounded in the knee by
shrapnel on October 4, and suffering
great pain, continued throughout the
entire period to encourage his officers
and men with a resistless optimism
that contributed largely toward pre-
venting panic and disorder among the
troops who were without food, cut of
from communication with our lines.
October a, during heavy barrage, he
personally directed and supervised the
moving of the wounded to shelter be-
fore he himself sought shelter. Oc-
tober 6 he was wounded in the shoul-
der by German grenade, but con-
tinued personally to organize and direct
the defense against the German attack
on the position until the attack was
defeated. He continued to direct and
command his troops, refusing relief.
and personally led his men out of the
position after assistance arrived, be-
fore permitting himself to be taken to
the hospital October 8. During this
period the successful defense of the
position was due largely to his efforts.
His wife is at R2 East 10th street,
New York.

his body, with undaunted courage, he
continued to fire into the emplace-
ment from prone position, killing
two of the enemy and dispensing the
rest of the crew. Private Dilboy's
