This did not seem to fease the foreman in the least and he bellowed out: "How do you .know he is dead?" The man answered simply: "I'm a doctor." Then the foreman once again ex- ploded: "A doctor!

Then the bloated body of the horee 'would reappear and disappear in the wake of the ship, the sea gulls hover- llrg and sereaming around it. The grub on the ship was awful,, and a day out of Bordeaux the gang or horsemen refused to work. The foremen mustered them on the main deck, and, standing on the bridge, let out about twenty minutes of religion and advice in their direction. The whole gang immediately got religious and returned to their duties. I was heartily sick and disgusted with the rest of the trip, because the stench was awful, there being about twelve dead horses that we could not get out. Ju-st outside of the entrance of the river ° leading to Bordeaux, a small, rakish boat, flying the tri-celor of France, came alongside. We hoe to and up the gangplank came threw French officers. They were closeted with the captain of the ship and our foreman and after about twenty linin- utes, eft, and we centinued on our courl Going up the river in some places the banks were only about twenty feet away. We could see the French wo- men tilling their fields. As we went by these workers stopped and 'waved their hands in the _air to us, and we waved back. A little farther up the river we came to a large dock where ships were load- ing and unloading cargoes, and a thrill passed through me as I saw my first batch of German prisoners at work. These were immense fel- lows, nearly every one being six feet or over. They were guarded by little' French soldiers, averaging about five feet five inches, with a long rifle, bayonet fixed. As we passed the German prisoners they scowled at us and we, feeling quite safe on the deck, yelled back insults at them. One big Irishman, right near tne, took great glee in jumping up an down on the hatch- walland running his 'finger across his throat. This seemed to enrage the prisoners and they yelled some- thing in German. The Irishman must have understood it because the let out a volley of curses in return. Pretty soon we came alongside the dock at Bordeaux. The dock was full of French Cavalrymen, hurrying to and fro. Huge Turcos, blaek as the ace of spades, with white turbans on their heads, were majestically L*" about.

Then each horse was led into a rink chalk- ed out on the dock and the Army in- spectors examined it. Very few were rejected. From this ring of chalk, they were led into a portable stall and branded. You could hear the shouting out what sounded like "Bat. tery Lao." As he yelled this, a French private would come over get the horse which had been branded, and lead it away. I got in conver- sation with an interpreter and he in- formed me that the average life of these horses in the French army was three days, so these poor horses had only left that Hell Ship to go into a worse Hell of bursting shells and cracking bullets. - I, after passing a rigid examina- tion ,as to my nationality, and being a cattleman's passport, inquired my way to the Prefecture of Police. I delivered to him a sealed envelope, which I had received in New York from a French official, who had com- missioned me to inake a detaliled -re- port as to what I had seen in the horse ship on the way over. Upon opening it, he was very gracious to me and I went into a rear room ,where on interpreter put me through a grill- ing examination. From there I was taken into a hotel, and the next morn- ing in the company of a sergeant and a private, got intct a little matchbox compartment on the funniest looking train I 'ever saw. The track' seemed to be about three feet wide; the wheels of the cars looked like huge cogwheels on an engine minus the cogs. After bumping stopping, and sometimes sliding backwards, in tweri- ty-six hours we reached a little town. Supplies, were piled up as high as houses. Officees and enlisted men were hurrying to and fro, and I could see long trains of supply wag- ons and artillery limbers always moving in the same direction. I was ushered into the presence of a French officer, who, I after found out, was a Brigadier -General of the Quartermaster Corps., I could hear a dietant booming, and, upon in- quiring found out that it was the guns of France; striving to hold back the German invaders. I trembled all over with excitement, and a feeling that I cannot describe rushed over me.- I was listening to my first sound of the guns on the western ford's letter:- froTnwto days afterwards I shipped to "After one dose of Gin Pills Iry husband found them to be exactly New York on the French liner m Rochabeaue.
