STORIES OF THE WAR “Where Are Those Americans?” Major T. Lyon of the Canadian Med- ica] Corps, who suffered such severe treatment when he was taken from the captain's boat and dragged uboard the German submarine, following the tor- t)edolng of the Llandovery Castle, has reen brought to a hospital in London. “I dread to think what would have happened to an American flying offi- cer, had he been in my shoes,” said the ajor. He then related to The Asso- ciated Press his experience with the 1| Germans. “The Germans,” he said, “see obsessed with the idea that Amer: aviators were abeard, and it took us some time to convince them otherwise. Almost the first words they used when approaching our lifeboat were: “Where is the flying officer?’ This was when , | the German command ordered us to t was possible, well, suggestion, direction, or anything. { Gut we were all thankful to set away {rom them. The uncertainty of our jl'osition overcame thoughts of my own injury, but, above all, I could not hélp wonder what had becom2 of others. After the submarine disappeared with a swish, all was stillness—a terribie stillness. There were no more eries for heip heard. “Then a iong night. After thirty-six hours we were rescued by a British destroyer, and here I am with every comfort and attention. ut I cannot help but feel that if the Germans had not interfered we could possibiy have saved many of those pour souls in the water clinging to wreckage and cry- i for help that never came.” ajor Lyon formerly lived in Van- er, B.'C., but entered the medical ice from his home town, Edin- ,hurgh, 5 Lieut.

I saw eight or ten All of them spoke English. Finally they sent me back to the lifeboat, my story having tal- lied with Sylvester's. “This seemed to surprise the Ger- mans, as they pretended to be sure that aviators were aboard. " I have my doubts about this belief being gen- uine, my idea being that the Germans simply used this as a pretext for the torpedoing of the Llandovery Castle.” Major Lyon was propped up in bed. Apparently his foot pained him and the interviewed seemed to annoy him slightly. A handsome young wounded British officer just from the front was much amused at Lyon’s calmness in telling of the disaster and his eager- ness to get the interview over with. He related how the Germans pursued them soon after the lifeboat put away from the submarine and called for the ship’s second officer, who was taken to the conning tower and questioned at length regarding the explosion as the vessel sank. The Germans apparently had before-hand information, as the ommander of the submarine said Ma- jor Lyon had asked about eight fly- ing officers. Eight medlcal officers had intended to make the trip, but one did not sail at the last minute because of illness. Finally the second officer returned to the lifeboat, and the submarine began running down the wreckage and any floating object. “The submarine,” con* tinued Major Lyon, “a little later made for us, missing our stern by two feet, I believe the Germans tried to ram us, but why they did not shell us or run us down we could not understand. Af- ter our first experience we all agreed that their first intentions were to sink without trace ,but why they spared us is inexplicable unless it was because most of the survivors in our boat are men of the sea, and they tell me there is a sort of Tree-masonry among them. “As the submarine disappeared in the darkness we heard ten or twelve shots, one over our heads. 1 shall never forget the cries of the helpless not delayed us we would have been able to assist quite a number. “I was in the smoking room when we were torfedoed. I first went to the staterooms of several nurses, but all were empty. I saw one nurse ascend- 1|ing the companionway, but never got another glance of the women, although one survivor said that he saw a boat with twelve of them capsize. Despite the darkness there was no panic and no -cries for help until an individual reached the water. My boat was the last to leave the ship. “The Llandovery Castle began set- tling rapidly, first listing, and then straightening herself as the how be- gan pointing skyward. We were with- in forty feet as she settled, going down o gradually that any -suction. My last glimpse of the ship showed the beat sticking straight up out of the water like a giant wounded shark and goinz to her death without a struggle. This was before om:'rix_perience aboard the submarine. “The the darkness without a werd 6f fare. and I believe that if the Germans had | we did not notice Germans sent us afloat into could be so eloquent as this letter from him to his mother. In its every word it announces that spirit of patriotism which animates the youth for the land in this hour of the nation’s peril.” Mr. Rainey further declared that “This letter will. in the patriotic utterances of national heroes rank side by side with the last utterances of Robert Emmet and Nathan Hale.” The letter is as follow: Somewheras in France. “My Dear Mother: I am about to go jnto battle and have instructed the company clerk to send you this letter in case I become a casualty, hence the receipt of this letter by you will indicate that T am either with God or a prisoner In the hands of the enemy. Since I will never become a prisoner of the Huns, if I remain con- scious and able to fight, it is doubt- ful if I will ever be an inmate of a German prison camp. “Do not grieve that I am among the missing, but rather rejoice that you have given a son in sacrifice to make the greatest military caste of all times lay down the sword, to save civiliza- tion. to prevent future wars, to punish the Huns—who have disregarded every law of God and mankind whose only God is the god of war and military force—and to make the world safe for democracy, I desire that you view the matter in the light and spirit of the Spartan mothers of old, who, when their sons went forth to battle for freedom and their native land, said to their sons: ‘Either come home proud- ly bearing your shield before you or upon it." “War was absolutely necessary on the part of my country, and although I was 34 years old and nobody expect- ed me to go, vet some one had to go; some one must make the sacrifice; some mother must lost her son. “In the light of these facts and knowing our country’s great need, I volunteered and have never for one moment regretted my decision, and I will not, although my life and the useful career must end.
