It is a simple soldie and only the American flag with which | it is decorated distinguishes it from | those of his [talian comrades in arms. | The fine qualities displnyed by the} Jialian soldiers so aroused Lieutenant , MeKoey's admiration that he gave free | vent to his enthusiasm, “How didly the Italians are fighting!" the last words he uttered, for just then | an Ausivian shell, exploding at their | side, ended his life, at the same time | seriously wounding Captain Colabattis- ; UL.
