Oh, it was awful, but we chased the Huns back for miles, and it was worth our small losses, although it was hard to see some of my old pals of the last months knocked over never to get up again. I thought by turn had come several times, as I had lots of narrow escapes. We would run a few yards and drop on our stomachs, ai with our small shovels throw up a small pile of dirt above our heads so as to protect us as much as possible from the snipers, machine gun and shrapnel fire that swept along the ground. The aeroplanes were also dropping bombs down on us. Of course, it was to be expected that some of us would be wounded, but we sure got off lucky as a whole, considering what we went through.

1 will mention one instance in particular of close call that I had. Although I had dozens of others. I guess this was the closest one. Eight of us were in a bunch on the side of a hill when a shrapnel burst right in the center of us. killing three, severely wounding three others, put a hole in the other fellow's tin hat, while 1 even get a scratch.

I certainly had a close shave, 1 sure thought my time had come when that loud crash came right over my head. is a funny sensation to hear the bullets go khizziug by your head and all around you.

In an interview published today he recapitulates details of the desecrate fight of his iband of 600 or 700 Yanks, the most of which has already been printed in the Register in letters from Captain Holderman.

He does not mention Captain Holderman in his interview and leaves the impression that he and Capt. George C. McMurtie were the only officers to come out cf the forest uninjured.
