Three times they came over ‘en masse to drive us out of our position. but with rifle and the Lewis machine guns. than which there are none bet- ter, we were able to pour a withering fire into the closely packed ranks of the oncoming Germans, in each case driving them back with a large num- ber of their dead and wounded on the ground. As 1:said_before, we held the posi- n throughout - the long day, and withdrew under cover of darkness that night. taking our wounded with us. Out of 110 of all ranks in my own company, that went into that attack, only 29 returned. I was the only- of- ficer left in my company, and only two junior N. C. Os came back with me. Considered as a demonatration of the dash and courage of our infantry it will have an inspring significance. We were back in the position from which we started. sadly -thinned in our ranks, but we felt no sense of de- feat, feeling sure before we went into the attack that it was not possible of success.
