From France.—The following letter
is from an old Hensel) boy, a son of
Mr. Aaron Sherritt, formerly of this
village. Mr. Sherritt has three sons
at the front and the fourth is now in
training to go overseas: Dear Jim,—
I have written you several times, but
when I would get ready to . post it
somethings happened. I carried one
in my gas mask for nearly a month
and one day in a struggle it nearly
choked me. Early in July we crawled
up at the front line very close to
\Fritz. I might say too close for com-
fort. After lying ten hours in. my
dugout about 18 inches wide and
24 inches deep, the order came to be
ready to go over the top in fifteen
minutes. Believe me, those fifteen
minutes were not spent in frivolous
thought. At the word of command,
we went over the top as it is called.
It is enough to say we had a lively
time until Fritz retired. I believe I
was shot through the leg as soon as I
went • over, but didn't know it until
the battle was oUrs. Then the boys
carried me back on a stretcher. Jim
you would make a first class Y.M.C.
A. man, but this is no place for a mar-
ried man and yet we had one man, a
Baptist preacher, about sixty years
of age. He had a wife and family
back in the state of Arizona. He went
over the top with us to the front
line trenches. He prayed for the boys,
carried stretchers and passed the cig-
arettes around. Needless to . say, he
'was a favorite. I believe Sherman's
march to the sea was . only child'd
.play compared to 'modern warfare.
I carry a cane now ,but hope to be
back with the boys soon. but let me
say this is no lame man's lob, just
now, to keep up to Fritz, .as he is
going some. ' Our men are fighing
like- demons. We hear good acconts
of our Canadian neighbors. Remem-
ber me to the boys at Grand Forks.
