The enemy's fusillade ceased, much to our satis- faction. But the German artillery began to reply, and we were soon subjected to such a fire that we had to retreat towards the village, being uneasy about our horses, which happened to be in the line of fire. In going along the main street we kept close to the walls to avoid the shell splinters. Shells of all calibres fell with- out ceasing, making holes in the thin slate roofs and breaking the windows. I saw one pierce a wall some paces in front... of me and burst inside a house, whose stories collapsed, one on the top of the other. It was just like an earthquake, the whole street was shaken by it. We made for our horses at the double and found them plunging under this storm of fire, and we galloped off behind the village to get them into safety. Without losing a second we distributed extra cartridges in large num- bers and returned to take our place between the farms in the grass fields shut in by hedges and barriers. We worked at fortifying our ioo IMPRESSIONS AND EXPERIENCES positions till evening.
