The 3rd Division was still in Vailly. Our Chavonne-Soupir line leading away north of Verneuil and on to Troyon, thence to a point north of Paissy had been maintained, if not advanced materially. Good news came from the French in front of Craonne, and again we heard they had taken that town, although subsequent reports in- variably came after news of Craonne's capture to tell us that the Germans still held it. Promise of a hard fight to maintain our positions was sure on the morrow. Sleep was of... inestimable value, so we slept as best we could. CHAPTER VII CAVALRY IN THE TRENCHES Typed reports from G.H.Q. began to bear univer- sal interest about this time. One that reached us during our first days on the Aisne collected evidences of German discomfiture, due to the pressure we had given their hurried retreat. Enemy shells were thrown into the Vesle at Braisnes. We captured German cavalry orders crying for aid to their in- fantry, admitting that their horses were worn out and the roads so congested they could not get their transport away.
