Wounded Often. After several days’ Sergeant McMahon, Secretary Joseph T. Fanning of the Euks war relief commission learned, little by little, of association with some other ailments acquired by him during the war, in addition to oss of cyesight. Sergeant McMahon was in both bat- tles of the Marne. At the second bat- tle of the Marne he was wounded in the head by shrapnel and carries silver plate to close the cavity that is an inch across. Shartly after returning to the front his left knee was permanently dis- abled by shrapnel. Four ribs were hroken at some time while he was at the front, but he says he is trying to forget about that, as no bad effects resulted On August 12 last. he was blinded by gas in the St. Quentin drive, and on August 21 he was on board the hospital ship Victoria which was torpedeoed by a Germn submarine while crossing the English channel. Sergeant McMahon says that after | helping to carry in 1,000 disabled men | from the various battlefields on which he served, he quit keeping count of the number. Has Prized Souvenirs.
