Dockman of Somer- ville, Mass., and of Harry Alsen, a 17 ar old patriot who fell, the writer goes to relate the brave work of Private Raymond Cannon of 69 Fast Pearl street, New Haven. Continuing his general description, Correspondent Ford write , All Do Their Bit. “Clerks and runners — message bearers—took guns from wounded men and helped drive the Boche from the village of Seicheprey. Cooks fought with rifles and stones protect- ing a United States kitchen. ““We'll drive them until hell freez over, then skate on the ice,” was the telephonic report of a Yankee officer to his superior during the hottest of the battle.” Later Mr. Ford had a conversation with a New Haven soldier Chester Smith, a scrgeant. He was wounded in the battle of Seicheprey and tells of regaining consciousness or the battlefield where he was lying beside a wounded German. He said that the troops who attacked the Americans were all picked men. “Blond giants and brave men when in a crowd, but when alone or when you kill their leader they all run. They're a bunch of quitters,” Ser- geant Smith stated. Griswold Fights Like Demon. Commenting upon the fighting of Captain Griswold of this city the in par “Capt. Alfred Griswold fought like a demon, throwing grenades along- side his men until captured by the Germans. knocked another over with a punch in the jaw and escaped through the barrage, only to be captured a second time.” It is assumed that it was after being apparently captured a second time that’the local man made his en- viable record.
