WHY NO PRISONERS
WERE TAKEN
From “ Private Peat — His Own Story
by Harold Peat (Bobbs Merrill.)
rnhe night of April 22 is one I
can never forget. It was
glorious, terrible, inspiring.
That night the Fighting Tenth
charged in pitch darkness, thru
thej woods of St. Julian. Thru
the undergrowth they fought
and bled and died, but outnum
bered as they were, they got the
position and captured the bat
tery of 4.7 gnns which had been
o -s t e i r 1 i e »• i n the d ay.
f his night, the derma's
caught and crucified three of
ourCm tdian sergeants I did
n »t see them crucify the men.
ilthough I saw one of the deal
bodies later. I saw the marks
of bayonets in the palms of the
hands and the feet where the
bayonet poia s had spitted the
man to a barn-door, l was to!
that one of the sergeants w s
still dive when taken down, he
gupedout that when the Ger
mans vere r idng litn t> b<
crucifi *d. they muttered in per
fect Fnghsh *Tf we did not
frighten you before, we will now
I doubt if there will again
be a battle fought in this wa
where the feeling of the men will
be as bitter as at at St. Julim,
men were found dead with their
b lyonets through the body of
some Hun, men who had been
siiot themselves thirty yards
down the field of advance. "Mieir
bodies were dead as we under
stand death but the God given
saint was alive carrying the
e irthbo ind flesh to avenge com
rides murdered and womanhood
outraged. It was a miracle,whie ;
proved for all time the power of
tne spirit over the flesh.
We bad seen atrocities on
tlie Belgians the day tie lore. We
hau seen young girls who were
muni iced and horribly maltreat
ed. we had been gassed and
sjoii wdr comrades uuj m an iv\
idl iiorror. vVe nad nad our sei
geaiii.s crucified, and we were
outnumoered tea to one.
After nil tins, and aii tlie ueil
c.n-'ou go wiiion we nad passed
frcm u ia tile morning till alter
wnea we reached the enemy
trench and presented the bright
ends of our bayonets, Mr. b’ritz
Went down on liis knees and
cried “ Kamerad! Kamerad”
What did we do? We did
exactly what you would have
done under the circumstances.
Kamerad!” —bah.
