T*vb weeks and 'fT lialf after we left
Belgium we arrived at Albert, having
inarched all the way. The sight which
met our eyes as we pounded the rock
quarry hill outside of Albert Wfta won
derful beyond description. I reme»'
ber how tremendously it impressed
my pal. Macfarlaue. lie sat by the
roadside and looked round over the
landscape as :lf lie were fascinated.
"Boy,'* said he. "we're at the big
show at last."
Poor fellow! It was not only the big
show, but the last performance for

"Boy," said Ho, 'Wr« «t the Wg »*o»»
at last."
him. Within sight of the spot where
lie sat wondering he later fell In action
aiul died. The scene which so Im
pressed him gave us all a feeling of
great awe. Great shells from a thou
sand guns were streaking and criss
crossing the sky. Without glasses I
counted thirty-nine of our observation
balloons. Away off In tbe distance I
saw one German captive balloon. The
other aircraft were uncountable. They
were everywhere, apparently in hun
dreds. There could have been no more
wonderful panorama picture of war in
its new as; ect.
Our battalion was In and out ot the
town of Albert several days waiting
for orders. The battle of Ccorcelette
was then in progress, aud the First,
Second and Third Canadian divisions
were holding front positions at terri
ble cost. In the first part of October,
IDli*. we "went In" opposite the fa
mous Rogina trench. The battleground
was just miles and miles of debris and
shell holes. Before we went to our
position the ullieers and non-coms
were taken in by scouts to get the lay
of the land. These trips were called
"Cook's tours." On one of them I
went tliroucti trie town or roizers
twice and didn't know it. It had a
population of 12.000 before the war.
On the spot where It had stood not
even a whole brick was left. It seemed.
Its demolition was complete. That
was iui example of the condition of the
whole country over which our forces
had blasted their way for ten miles
since the previous July. There were
uot even landmarks left.
The "Cook's Tour."
On the night when we went in to In
spect the positions we were to hold, our
scouts, leading us through the flat des
ert of destruction, got completely turn
ed round and took us back through a
trench composed of shell holes con
nected up until we ran into a battal
ion of another brigade. The place was
dreadful beyond words. The stench
of the dead was sickening. In many
places arms and legs of dead men
stuck out of the trench walls.
We made a fresh start a'ter our tyup
der, moving hi single tile and kee»ii\g
in touch each with the tuaq ftheaa af
him. We stumbled aluug In the dark
ness through this awful labyrinth until
we ran Into some of our own scout*
at 2 a. m. and found that we were
halfway across No Man's land, sev
eral hundred yards beyond our front
line and likely to be utterly wip)ed out
in twenty seconds should the Germans
sight us. Fine guides we had on this
I "Cook's tour." At last we reached
our proper position, and fifteen min
utes after we got there a wh$*-bang, a
low explosive murderer, burled me
completely. They had to dig me out
A. few minutes later a high explosive
shell fell In a trench section where
three of our men were stationed. AH
we could And after It exploded were
one arm and one leg. which we burled.
The trenches were without trench
mats, and the mud was from six inches
to three feet deep all through them.
There were no dugouts, only merely
miserable "funk holes," dug where It
was possible to dig them withoat un
| covering dead men. We remained Jn
this position four days, from ^Tth
to the 21st of October, 1910,
There were reasons, course, for
the difference between conditions In
[ Belgium and on the Somme. On the
Sornrne we werqjttnatantly preparing
tor i new aflvance, atiu we were ouiy
temporarily established on ground
•which we 'trad but recently taken after
long drumming with big -guns. Use
trenches, ware merely shell holes con
nected by ditches. Our old and ubiqui
tous and variously use Jul friend, .the
sandbag, was not present In any ca
pacity. and therefore we had no para
pets or dugouts. The communication
trenches were all blown In, and every
thing had to come to us overland, with
the result that we never were quite
sure when we would get ammunition,
rations or relief forces. The most aw
ful thing was that the soil all about us
' was tilled wl^h freshly buried men. If
we undertook to cut a trench or ea
largie a funk hole our spades struck
Into human flesh and the explosion of
a big shell along our line sent decom
posed and dismembered and sickening
mementos of an earlier tight Shower
tng among us. We lived In the muck
and -stench of "glorious" « ar, those of
us who lived.
The German Dugout—and "What
They Pound.
Here and there along this tine were
the abandoned dugouts of the Ger
mans, and we made what use of them
we could, but that was Httfe. 1 bad
orders one day to locate a dugout and
prepare It for nee as battalion head
quarters. When 1 led a squad in to
clean It up the odor was so overpower
ing that we had to put on our gas
masks. On entering we flrst saw two
dead nurses with our gtiastty flash
lights, one standing with her arm
around a post. Just as she had stood
when gas or concussion killed her.
Seated at a table In the middle of the
place was the body of an old general
of the German medical corps, his bead
fallen between his hands. The task
of cleaning up was too dreadful for
us. We Just tossed In four or live
fumlte bombs and beat It out of there.
A few hours later we went Into the
seared and empty cmai. made the
roof safe with uew timbers and. noti
fied battalion headquarters that the
place could be occupied.
During this time I witnessed a scene
which, with some others, I ahall never
forget. An old chaplain of the Cana
dian forces came to our trench section
seeking the grave of bis eon. which
bad been marked for lilm on a rude
map by an officer who bad seen the
young man's burial We managed to
find the sjiot. and at the old chaplain's
request we exhumed the body. Some
of us suggested to htm that he give us
the identification marks and retire out
of range of tbe shells which were
uuivuu^ BU Hi vuua uo, nc iu^uvu
that it was unwise for him to remain
In dancer, but what we really Intended
was that he should be saved the horror
of seeing the pitiful thing which trar
spades were about to uncover.
"1 shall remain." was all be said.
"He was my boy."
It proved that we hid found the
right body. One of our men trie! to
clear the features with hla handker
chief, but ended by spreading the
handkerchief over the face. The old
chaplain stood beside the body and
removed his trench helmet, baring his
gray head to a drizzle of rain that was
falling. Then while we stood by si
lently his voice rosq timid the noise of
bursting shells, repeating the burial
service of the Church of England. 1

thing in my life aa by tUat seeoe.

through all that bell. They went about
