service. AT II. M, July 3lst, we left
Camp Mills for New York hnrbor.
There we were loaded on the "Em-
press of ASIA" which was Mt pier SO.
We spent the day in the harbor. On
the morning of August LIST, we pulled
out into the bay and stayed until A
p. m, then we started across with
eleven other transports, one British
battle cruiser ando ne American de
stroyer. The trip across was very
uneventful. Just off the coast of Ire
land squadron of fourteen French.
British and American dcstroyers, also
one chascr, conveyed us into port. We
landed Mt Liverpool, England August
18th, Mt 6 p. M, disembarked, and
marched through the city to the rail-
road station. Here we were given
cakes and coffee by the Red Cross,
also given cards of greeting from

boarded the train and rode for nine

rested three days Between Liver

ever seen in my life. August 18th we
visited Lord Bedford's estate, which
was very beautiful.
August 18th, ut 8 n. M, we left
Camp Woodley for SOUTHAMPTON, n
distance of eleven miles, on the hot
test day | ever saw in my life. Ar
irving there at $3.50 p. m. we rested
until 6 p. M, then we boarded the
steamer Yale" and crossed the
English channel to lie Harve, France,
arriving there at p. M, August IS,
and from there liked five miles to
a French rest camp. The water at
this camp had been poisoned by the
Germans, end spent the better part
of the night looking for some good
water, for never was thirstier in
my life, and just about time / found
1t we were attacked by an airplane
ana had to 90 to some trenches near
by.
On August 18th, we liked back to
lie Harye, where we boarded train
and rode forty-eight hours in cattle

Investigation showed that she had
