Has Mom«nt«/ry Repugnancs When He Realizes He Is About to Take Hu¬ man Life; Then "8««s Red" and Bayonets Foes In Front—Feels Pain in Shoulder, Wakes Up In Hospital.
Lying In n hospital In Paris a yonng BritLsh aoldler, who bad been a London broker a few months ago, told the story of bis tirst bayonet charge. It will be hts last, tob, for he will never be well enough again to be sent back to the front.
"We had gone Into the trenches round Ypres only a few days before," he said, "ami my first e.xperleuce of the realities of war was to He patiently .sulTeriiig au awful InMbvlty while the artillery ou both sides bekhed destruc¬ tion ou the men facing each other lu the trenches.
"As dawn broke I felt an Uncontroll¬ able desire to climb out of the trench Into the open, but I knew It was court¬ ing death, as I saw the next moment. The man nearest me raised his head alidve tile parapet, and n an instant was baprged by a sniper. He rolleil over with a stifled lilurnnir, and lay quite still with his face hurled lu the soft red earth. I turned lilm over and spoke to him, but.he was dead, with a hole in his forehead.
•'The day passed fairly (luletly until dusk, when we received ilie order thut In an hour's time we were to storm one of the enemy's advanced iiosltlons. Next Hour Seemed Lifetime. "The next hour seemed a lifetime. The noise of the bombardment swelletl louder mul lQuder,,4)ut I hardly noticed It. The men nround me showed their emotions In their faces. Some were ex¬ cited lUid showed au almost exaggerat¬ ed enthushism for the work in hand. The majority were straiiKcly silent I can honestly say I felt ii>) nctual fear, but I could not l>elp ritmembering that in a short time our numbers would probably be reduced by half, and I was prepared for the worst.
"In live miiuites the order would be given, and the thought ( f what wa.s cominjr raade my blood hnll. I, too, be¬ came iinpatient to get <iut Into that stretch of open ground which separated us from our goal. It w.is dark now, and the enemy's searchlight began to sweep our positions. Two more min¬ utes and we should leap from our trenches.
"The bombardment reached Its height, and with a wild, vicious, flnal roar, which seemed to open the heav¬ ens, It censed. The moment had arriv¬ ed. The order was given, and, scrnm^ bling over the parapet, we emerged luto the shell swept zone. The enemy's machine guhs began to spit fire among our ranks, but no one wavered. If ^ye had felt nny fear It had now left us. Men fell on all huaids, but with a yell we rushetl forward with "bared steel townrd the raised ground.
Face to Face With Foa. "Our artillery hnd done Its work well, for we found I haywire defenses almost completely blown away. We reached the enemy's front trenches, and I raised my bayonet as a big Ba¬ varian mad« to fire nt me.
"Then someiliing withm me made me hesitate, nnd a comrade laid the mau out J+ist in time. In the thick of the flght it hild just dawned on me'that *i was about,, to take a human Ufe for the. first time, and 1 hnd felt a mo- Dieutary repagnauce.
"The next Instant, however, one of our meu next to me fell in a heap, and a bullet whlzze<l my faee. Then I knew what It was to see red. With a yell I bayoneted the Gennan who had shot the man,'nud hnd soon accounted for three more. The place was like a shambles. The German front line tWnches were fliled with a heap of torn and bloody corjises, and we were now attacking the rear trenches.
"Then sUt^enly I felt a pain lu my .shoulder, but I rushed on. I tried to raise my rifle, but found I could not, and the next moment I was lit si¬ multaneously In the nrm ,and the Jaw. The palu was terrible, but, as I lay on the ground, I tried to shoot for joy, I was Infected with the fever of onr success, for I knew that the position was won. Then I lo.st consciousness and f woke up in the field hospitul."
