He must go over a space of fifty yards, absolutely exposed, to the edge of a group of trees where there is a first-line [126 J AN ORDINARY FATIGUE PARTY trench taken from the Boches in the last attack and not yet connected with the communication trench. He has reason for his hesitation, for the last two days the Boche trench on our left has been firing on it heavily. Day before yesterday an entire fatigue party was killed. We can see there in front of us the abandoned sacks and scattered packag...es. Five men out of eight were killed yesterday. The others were able to get over some of the provi- sions and the bad news by crawling, and at the price of a thousand risks. They also took the rest of the provisions from the bodies of their comrades who carried them. To-day they ad- vanced the time of bringing the supplies an hour in order to foil the enemy's vigilance. This time the mess corporal accompanied the fatigue party himself to discover, if possible, a less perilous mode of communication.
