A tier" this tight I was sent, with
other slightly wounded men, for a
week's rest at the casualty station at
Coutay. I rejoined my battalion at
the end of the week. From Oct. 21 to
Nor. 18 we were iu and out of the
front trenches several times for duty
tours of forty-eight hours each, but
were in no important action. At 6:10
on the morning of .Nov. 18, a bit
ter cold day, we "went over" to take
the Desire and ulso the Desire support
trenches. These were the names given
these trenches. We started from the
left of our old position, and our ad
vance wus between Thlepval and
Pozleres, opposite Grandecourt
There was the usual artillery prep
aration and cureful organization for
the attack. I was again in charge of
the "mopping up-' wave, numbering
200 men and consisting mostly of
bombers. It may seem strange to you
that a noncommissioned officer should
have so Important au assignment, but
sometimes In this war privates have
been In charge of companies number
ing 250 men. and I know of.a case
where a lance corporal was temporari
ly in command of an entire battalion,
it happened on this day that, while I
was in charge of the second wave, I
did not g« over with them. At the last
moment 1 was given a special duty by
Mujor John I^ewls, formerly manag
ing editor of the Montreal 8tar and
one of the bravest soldiers I ever
knew, as well as the best beloved man
In our l^ittullon.
The Troublesome Machine Gun.
"AlcCllntock," suid he. "1 don't wish
to send you to any special hazard, and,
so fur as that goes, we're all going to
get more or less of a dusting, but I
want to put that machine gun which
has been giving us so much trouble
out of action."
I knew very well the machine gun
he meunt. it was in a concrete em
placement, walled and roofed, and the
devils in charge of it seemed to be de
scendants of Wtlllnm Tell and the
prophet Isaiah. They always knew
what was coming and bud their gun
accurately trained on It before it came.
"If you are willing," suid Major
Lewis, "1 wish you to select twenty
flve from the compuny and go after
that gun the minute the order comes
to advunce. Use your own Judgment
about the men and the plan for taking
the gun position. Will you go?"
"1 sure will," I answered. "Ill go
and pick out the men right away. I
think we can inuke those fellows shut
up shop over-there."
"Good boy!" be said. "You'll try, all
right."
I sturted away. He called me back.
"This is going to be a bit hot, Mc
Cllntock," he said, taking my band.
"I wish you luck, old fellow—you and
the rest of thefti." Iu the trenches
Ihe.v always wish you the best of luck
when they band you a particularly
tough Job.
I thanked him and wished him the
same. I never saw him again. He
was killed in action within two hours
"This ii going to bo a bit hot. Mo
Clintook."
after our conversation. Both he and
my pal Macfarlane were shot down
dead that morning.
When they called for volunteers to
go with me in discbarge of Major Lew
Is' order the entire company responded.
I picked out twenty-flve men, twelve
bayonet men and thirteen ' bombers.
They agreed to my plan, which was
to get within twenty-flve yards of the
gun emplacement before attacking, to
place no dependence on rifle fire, but
to bomb them out and take the posi
tion with the bayonet We followed
that plan and took the emplacement
quicker than we bad expected to <lo,
but there were only two of us left
when we got thar*— Private God sail,
No. 177,063, and myself. Alj the rest
of the twenty-flve were dead or down
The emplacement was held by eleven
Germans. Two only were left Stand
ing when., we .got In.
When we saw the gum baa been n»
lenced and tbe crow disabled Godaall
and I worked round to the right about
tea yards from the shell hole where
we had sheltered ourselves while
throwing bombs Into the emplacement
and scaled the German parapet We
rushed the gun position. Tbe officer
who had been In charge was standing
with his back to us, firing with his re
volver down the trench at our men
who were coming over at another
point 1 reached him before Godaall
and bayoneted him. The other Ger
man who had survived our bombing
threw up his hands and mouthed tbe
Teutonic slogan of surrender—''Mercy,
kamcrad!" My bayonet had. broken
off In the encounter with the German
officer, so I picked up a German rifle
with a bayonet fixed, and God sail and
I worked on down the trench.
The Gerinnn who had surrendered
stood with his hands iield high above
his head, waiting for us to tell him
what to do. He never took his eyes
off of us even to look at his officer, ly
ing at his feet. As we moved down
I Tumbled In on Top of the Four. !
the trench he followed us, stilt hold
ing h!s hands up and repeating, "Mercy,
kamerad!" At the next trench angle
we took Ave more prisoners, and as
Uodsall had been slightly wounded tn
the arm I turned the captives over to
him and ordered him to take them to
the rear. Just then the men of oar
second wave came over the parapet
like a lot of hurdlers. In five mlnntea
we had taken the rest of the Germans
In tho trench section prisoners, had re
versed the Are steps and had turned i
their own machine gun against those
of their retreating companies that we
could cntch sight of.
As we could do nothing more here,
I gave orders to advance and re-en
force the front line. Our wajr led
across a field furrowed with shell holes
and spotted with bursting shells. Not
a man hesitated. We were winning.
That was all we knew or cared to
know. We wanted to make.'it a cer
tainty for our fellows who had gone
ahead. As we were proceeding toward
the German reserve trench I saw four
of our men, apparently unwounded, ly.
tng In a shell hole. I stopped to ask
them what they were doing there. As
I spoke I held my German rifle and
bayonet at the position of "guard," the •
tip of the bayonet advanced, about
shoulder high. I didn't get their an
swer, for before they could reply 1
felt n sMisatlou as If some one bad
thrown a lump of hard clay and struck
me on the hip, and forthwith I tum
bled in r« top of the four, almost
plunging my bayonet Into one of them,
a private named Williams.
McClintock Badly Wounded,
'•Well, now you know what's the
matter with us," said Williams. "We
didn't fall in, but we crawled In."
They had all been slightly wounded.
I had twenty-two pieces of shrapnel
and some Bhell fragments Imbedded tn
my left leg between the hip and the
knee. I followed the usual custom of
the soldier who has "got It." The first
thing I did was to light a "fag" (ciga
rette), and the next thing was to In
vestigate and determine If -I waa In
danger of bleeding to death. There
wasn't much doubt about that Ar
terial blood was spurting from two of
the wounds, which were revealed
when the other men In the hole helped
me to cut o!T my breecbcs. With their
aid I managed to stop the hemorrhage
by Improvising tourniquets with rag*
and bayonets. One I placed as high
up as possible on the thigh and die
other Just below the knee. Then we
all smoked auother "fag" and lay there
listening to the shells going OT#r,
ana the sHfapn« DOrfratf near us. it
vu quits a concert too. We dlacuased
what we ought to do,, and finally I
aside
"Here, yon feMowa can walk, and I
can't Furthermore, you're not able to
carry me because you've got aboOt all
any uf you can do to navigate alone,
It doesn't look aa IT lt'i going to be
any better here very aoon. Tou all
proceed to the rear, and U you can get
some one to come after me I'll be
obliged to you."
They accepted the proposition be
cause It waa good advice, and, besides,
it waa orders. I waa their superior
officer. And what happened right
attar that confirmed me forever In my
early, Kentucky bred conviction that
there la a great deal In luck. They
couldn't have traveled more than fifty
yards from the shell hole when the
shriek of a high explosive seemed to
come right down out of the sky lnt#
my mh, ®ud the detonation which In
stantly followed shook the slanting
aides of the ahell hole until dirt In lit
tle dusty rivulets came trickling down 1
upon ma Wounded as I was, I drag
ged myself up to the edge of the. hole.
There waa no trace anywhere of the
four men who had just left me. They
Juve never been heard of since. Their
bodies wore never found. Hie big
ahell must have fallen right among
them and simply blown them to blta
It waa about a quarter to 7 In the
morning when I was hit I lay In the
.ahell hole until 2'in the afternoon, suf
fering more from thirst and cold and
hunger than from pain. I only hoped
tbe Germans wouldn't drive our men
back over ma At 2 o'clock a batch of
sixty prisoners came along under es
cort Ttoey were being taken to the
rear under fire. The artillery bom
bardment waa atlll practically undi
minished. I asked tor four of the
prisoners and made one of them get
out hla rubber ground sheet carried
around hla waist They responded
willingly and seemed moet ready to
help ma I had a revolver (empty) and
some bombs In my pockets, but I had
no need to threaten them. They half
dragged me toward the rear.
Carried to the Bear.
It was a trip which was not without
Incident. Every now and then we
would bear the shriek of an approach
ing "octal box," and then my prisoner
stretcher bearers and 1 would tumble in
one Indiscriminate group Into the near
est shell hole. If we did that once we
did it a half dozen times. After each
dive the four would patiently reorgan
ise and arrange the improvised stretch
er again, and we would proceed. Fol
lowing every tumble, however, I would
have to tighten my tourniquets, and,
deapite all I could do, the hemorrhage
from my wound continued to flow ao
profusely that I was beginning to feel
very dluy and weak. On the way in
I sighted our regimental dressing sta
tion and signed, to my four bearers to
carry me toward. It I couldn't talk
German. The station was in an old
German dugout Major Gil day was at
the door. He laughed when he saw
me with my own special ambulance
detail.
"Well, what do you want?" he asked.
"Most of all." I said, "I think I want
a drink of rum."
He produced It for mo instantly.
"Now," said he, "my advice to you Is
to keep on traveling. You've got a fine
special detail there to look after you.
Make 'em carry you to Pozleres. It's
only five miles, and you'll make It all
right I've got this place loaded up
full, no stretcher bearers, no assistants,
no adequate supply of bandages and
medicines and a lot of very bad cases,
if you want to get out of here In a
week Just keep right jan going now."
As we continued toward the rear we
were the targets for a number of hu
morous remarks from men coming up
to go Into the tight
"Give my regards to Blighty, you
lucky beggar," was the most frequent
aaylng.
"BIT me," said one cockney Tommy,
"there goes one o' th' Canadians with
an escort from the kaiser."
Another man stopf>ed and asked
about my wound.
"Good work." he aald. "I'd Uke to
have a nice clean one like that my
self."
I noticed on* of the prisoners grin
ning at some remark and asked him if
be understood English. He hadnt spo
ken- to ma, though he had shown the
greatest readlnsea to help me.
''Certainly I understand English," he
replied, speaking the language perfect
ly, "I used to be a waiter at the
Knickerbocker hotel In New York."
That sounded like a voice from home,
and I wanted to hug htm. I didn't
However, I can say for him he must
have been a good waiter. He gave me
food service.
Of the last stages of my trip to Po
tieres I cannot tell anything, for I ar
rived unconscious from loss of blood
The last I remember was that the for
mer waiter, evidently seeing that I
was going out, asked me to direct him
how to reach the field hospital station
at Potl^rea and whom to ask for when
be got there. I came back to coo
scloosness to a clean hospital cot the
next morning.
I realised M I lay an that cot I was
ovt of the modern hell for a time, and
my mlod drifted back over the days
just passed. Wounded men, grim re
minders, were all about me, many of
them worn off than I was. I bad seen
all kinds of bravery—British officers
climbing calmly over the top with a
monocle to their eyes and a cane In
their haods Into almost certain death,
Oka a man getting into a tub of water
where he knew he would get wet
