CHAPTER XIV.
Je Suis Blesse,

rs usual, when we got to BreSt there
was rush work day and night on the
Cassard to get her out and supplies of
all kinds were loaded for our next
visit to the Turks. The French gar
bies were always keen for the trip
back to Brest--they were sure of load
ing up on tobacco and other things
they needed.
My tweli h "trip to the Dardanelles
was different from the others. The
Cassard was doing patrol work at the
time in the neighborhood of Cape
Helles. Those Of US who had served
on the Peninsula before were thank
ing our stars for the snap we were
having-just cruising around waiting
for something to happen.
We had not been there very long be-
fore something unexpected did happen,
for we ran into two enemy cruisers
which I afterwards heard were the
VERT and Kaiserliche Marine--one on
the starboard and one on the port,
How they had managed to sneak UP
so near US do not know. They
opened up on US at not much more
than thousand yards and gave us q
hot time from the start, though with
any kind Of gunnery they should have
done for US thoroughly.
We came right back at them and
we're getting in some pretty good shots
| was in the 14-inch gun turret, star
board bow-my old hangout-and VIC
were letting them have it about foul
shots every five minutes and SCORING
heavily.
do not know how long we had beer
fighting when part of our range finder
was carried away. 1t was SO hot
though, and we were so hard at it thai
such a little thing like that did not
bother US. 1t is hot in any gun turret
but have flways noticed that it ii
hotter there in the Dardanelles thar
in any other place. The sweat would
simply cake up on Us, until our faces
were just covered with film of pow
derry stuff.
But the range finder was carried
away, and although 1t looked bad fol
us / was feeling so good that l vol
unteered to go on deck and get an

I do not believe l came to, singing, be-
cause / never sang "Sweet Adeline'
before, that / know of, or any other
song when anybody was in range. But
/ heard it lots of times, so maybe
did sing it at that.
Then / went to sleep feeling fine.
The next morning the detachment
from the Cassard was withdrawn, and
saw some of the men who had been
in the two trenches, but I was not
near enough to speak to them. So
do not know how they got out.
You never saw a happier bunch in
your life than we were when we piled
into the lifeboats and started for the
Cassard. The old ship looked pretty
good to US, you can bet, and we said
if we never put our hoofs on that place
| again it would be soon enough.
We were shelled on our way out to
the Cassard, and one boat was over
turned, but the men were rescued.
Two men in the launch I was in were
wounded. But we did not pay any
attention to that shelling-the Turks
might just as well have been blowing
peas at us through soda straw for
all we cared.
I noticed that when we came near
the Cassard the other boats held up
and let our launch get into the lead,
and that we circled around the Cas-
sards bows and came up on the star
board side, which was unusual. But
1 did not think anything of it until !
came over the side. There were the
side boys lined up, and the Old Man
was there, with the ships steward
beside him.
He took the log book from the stew
ard and showed it to me, and there
was my name on it. Now when you
are punished for anything you are
logged, but I could not figure out what
had done to get punished for, so
was very much surprised. But the
Old Man slapped me on the back and
everybody cheered, and then I saw il
was not punishment, but just the op'
posite.
When people ask me what l have
received my decoration for (CrOix dc
Guerre), l tell them / do not rightly
; know. and that is a fact. / do moi
: know whether it was for going bach
from those trenches or for destroying
the storehouses. So always tell then
got 1t for working overtime. Tha
is what the Limeys say, or il the.
have the Victoria cross they say the.
got it for being very careless. Asl
:, one of them and see.
All of US were certainly glad to b.
aboard the Cassard again, and if an,
place ever looked like home to me i

that after the Dardanelles and my las

M in fire and smoke. felt good then,
and laid the wires on the other ware
house and let her go. But she was too
high and made a clean miss. Then
was mad, because had sent that
one over for myself. So / got the cross
wires on the warehouse again and,
said to myself, "This is not for any
body, just for luck, because sure
have had plenty Of 1t today"
Then the juice came through the
wires and into the charge, and away
she went, and up went the second
warehouse. That made two directs out
OF three, and I guess it hurt the Turks
some to lose all their ammunition.
The officer kissed me before / could
duck and slapped me on the back and
I keeled over. was inst all In.
They brought me to with .un, and
they said I was singing when I came
to. When they tried to sing, to show
me what song it was, figured It was

other one. l got outside the turret
door and across the deck, got the nee
essary parts and was coming bacl;
with them when I received two ma.
chine-gun bullets in the right thigh
One went clear through bone and all
and drilled a hole on the other side
while the other came within an inch
of going through. The peculiar thing
is that these two were in line above
the wound / got at Dixmude. The line
is almost as straight as you could
draw it with a ruler.
OF course it knocked me down and
hit my head a pretty hard crack on
