Joined in Turning Point
of War at St. Agnan
Philadelphians Made Glorious History in ASSISTING
French Halt Last Great Drive on Paris

CONVINCED that the Pennsylva-
mans were ready for any test,
the French decided to give them po-
sitions somewhat in advance, and to
do this were forced to split the di-
vision.
The Fifty-fifth Infantry Brigade,
consisting of the 109th and 10th
Regiments (old Philadelphia units),
found itself on the morning of July 5
near st. Agnan.
Twelve miles to the left was the
Fifty-sixth Brigade, consisting OF the
111th and 112th Infantry Regiments.
The 108th Machine-Gun Battalion
was attached to the Fifty-fifth Bri-
gade.
st. Agnan, like the town of Chat
eau Thierry, few miles to the left,
was an important key to the road to
Paris. II must be held at any price.
French strategists had figured that
the Germans would make desperate
attack at st. Agnan and their cal
culations proved true, for on the
night of July IA the Germans, in
preparation for their fifth and last
drive on Paris, laid down terrific
barrage.
At dusk the next morning 'hell

broke loose" to use the vernacular
of the soldiers, and one of the most
glorious pages in the war history of
Pennsylvania was being penned.
L and M Companies of the 1O9th
Infantry were in an advanced posi-.
tion little more than a mile from
the brigade.
Two Companies Surrounded
Suddenly the German barrage
lifted and Immediately came a flood
of Prussians. Since July A they had
been expected, but not in such num-
bers, and, in almost the twinkling
of an eye, L and M Companies were
surrounded. H..
Not since the days of Custer had
a force of American soldiers been
forced to fight such overwhelming
odds. But they fought, and about
fifty men in each company managed
to fight their way out of the boche
pocket and reach the brigade. A
majority of the others were either
killed or captured.
Captain Edward P. Mackey, com.
mander of M Company, managed to
6gns his way out and saved fifty of
his men.
Tie Germans We're making their
last edort % dominate the ~erld,
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1919-05-15

and upon the 109th and 10th regi-
ments, dug in at st. Agnan, fell the
responsibility of holding them on
this part of the line.
In the first few minutes of the
battle, the 109th, commanded by
Colonel Millard d. Brown, of Phil
adelphia, had lost approximately 400
men, but not once did the Philadel-
phian entertain the idea of giving
ground.
On swept the Germans, and for
three days the Fifty-ffth Infantry
brigade, of the Iron Division, gave
them battle. The Pennsylvanians
were not alone, because the French
were in that sector, but the fighting
of the Pennsylvanians gave the
French a new spirit and the Prus-
SLAMS were held.
Fighting Was Terrific
The fighting was terrific and just
as important from military view
point as the fighting of the marines
in the Belleau Wood. The Germans
were making a desperate effort to
break through st. Agnan and press
on to Paris. The Pennsylyanians
were ordered to stop them. They
did and no troops could do more.
On the afternoon of July IS, the
Germans were turned backward in
this section of the line and from
that day to November IL they con-
tinued to fall back. ... ..
The Iron Division participated in
a score of other battles, but never
did it acquit itself with greater
glory than in the engagement from
July Is to 18. ; sf
In this battle the Fifty-sixth bri-
gade,- 103d Engineers and other out
fits in the division did not get in
contact with German infantry.
Despite that they were subjected to
a heavy shell fire and sustained
many casualties.
List Killed in Action
Fate decreed that the 109th and
10th were to pay the price and
start the German war machine on
its way to Berlin and ignoble sur
render few months later. The
price paid to accomplish this end is
emphasized in the following casualty

LIST OF MEN KILLED IN ACTION IS TRIBUTE
TO THE FIERCE VALOR WITH WHICH THEY FOUGHT
From Hill 2O to the Signing the Amsce Our Fighters Were
Still Found Pushing Forward, Doggedy Determined
to Win the War
BY BEN BOYDEN

VanlanS nad Deen on ffencn SOIL,
and for four weeks they had been
subjected to shell fire and gas at
tacks. Many of them had been
killed, but as yet they had not been
sent into real engagement.
Five minutes before Colonel Mat
ter gave the order to go forward
the Pennsylvanians were ready and
at 6 o'clock the first man scrambled
out of the trenches and started
toward Hill 2O4.
Troops Did Not Falter
The boche laid down a terrific
machine gun and shell fire, but not
once did the boys from the Key
stone State falter. They held on
with the same determination that
their illustrious grandfathers ex-
hibited at Gettysburg.
A few miles in the rear the rank
ing officers of the Iron Division
were stretched out on the edge of
high plateau watching the battle.
What they witnessed, in the
Pickering light of that evening, was
proof that the Pennsylvania of Ma
tional Guardsmen would fight; that
its men were made of the right kind
of soldier material, and that they
were ready to give battle to the best
in the Kaiser's army.
For three hours they fought, with
a fury unsurpassed in the annals of
the war.
At 9 o'clock Colonel Matter
ordered his troops to withdraw. He
had won his objective, namely the
creation of new spirit among his
troops.
'The Yankees were great fighters;
brave, resourceful and furious"
When more arrived the tide of
Germans sweeping toward Paris
would be checked for all time and
France cleared of the enemy.
- The Pennsylvanians in the 111th
Infantry had fought a good fight.
One hundred and forty went into the
fray and nearly fifty had been hit.
Of that number nine had been killed.
Another, Private Leon C. McCuiston,
of Accompany, had been mortally
wounded. He died the next day.
Nine Killed, Many Hit
Z In the engagement the following
men sacrificed their lives and Penn
sylvania inscribed their names on
its scroll of honor:
Sergeant George A. Amole, Cor
poral Steve Graves, Privates Ensel
Maxwell and Mattio Vacchono, all
of A company. From B company,
Corporals Ralph w. Uhlman and
Raymond Wholoman and Privates
Finley B. Taylor, Wilmer Manner
ing and August J. Scholz.
What the death of these valiant
boys from Pennsylvania meant to
the cause of humanity is told by
Colonel Matter. In letter sent to
Major General Charles H. Muir he
described the action and expressed,
in behalf Of the French, the. belief
that with such admirable soldiers
as yours and ours the defeat of the
Germans is certain in the near fu-
ture." His letter follows:
l have the honor to inform you
that the detachment of your regi-
ment which you have been SO good
as to put at my disposal for the
attack of July l., has shown in it's
baptism of fire an admirable atti-
tude.
The detachment was placed with
the second battalion of the 153d,

28th Division Sentry First
Casualty; Shot by Pro,oler

The first Iron Division soldier to
sustain wound after the United
States entered the war was John
Mcnamara. private in G Com
pany, old First Regiment (109th In
fantry).
Mcnamara, whose home is at 2039
Amber street, this city, responded to
the call Of his country at the out
break of the war. and went with
his command to Reading, where he
did guard duty at the Lebanon Val
ley bridge.
On the night of April I, 1917, he
was shot by a marauder, but his
wound did not prove serious, and
after receiving treatment at a
dressing station the soldier returned
to duty. Three shots were fired at
Mcnamara, two going wild. The
third, fired by the maurauder, who
was ambushed in clump of trees,
struck the soldier in the right arm.
