Lefler From a 161 Boy
Pte Fred Taylor describes Vimy
Dear Friend.—
Jut a few lines to let you knots 1 am
alive and well, only waning at times
No doubt you will have heard by this
time that .1 have been wounded I rust
tell yon all about my experience going
over the top, as we call it.
Well on Easter we got orders to take
the trench the next day, that wae Easter
Monday, so we went to bed and slept
fairly well, got up and had breakfast
early, jnst 2 o'clock in the morning.
We then got ready for the charge. All
ready we went into the trench, fixed
bayonets, and stood to, till the orders
came at half past five o'clock in the
morning, Then the big guns opened
up and over we went
It certainly was a sight to see, we
could see the Huns coming holding up
their hands but some of them didn't
comply
The machine guns kept pouring a
withering fire on us and my comardee
wore falling on both sides of me. I
was only five yards from the German
trench when 1 got mine, but I want
to tell you the boys certainly slid well
that morning, I could not see any of the
Seaforth boys falling 3 am thankful to
say.
We never marched over such ground
shell holes, barb wire and every kind
of wire and mud to your knees. It
was awful but we got there just the
same and it was an awful day, the big
guns roard all day and night after
1 lay in a shell hole for five hours, and
the shells were bursting so olose I
thought 1 would try and get back to
the dressing station and 1 hscl two miles
to walk before 1 reached it 1 got fix-
ed up and then I was scot to a hospital
and later on to the Bologna Hospital
and after one week laiiiled in England.
I had a operation on my throat as the
shrapnel went in my shoulder passed
through sudor my bask bone and into
my throat, The doctor say it was
marvelous how it travelled through my
body and says i. is a miracle that I am
alive. so 1 may thank God for it all.
1 also lost the use of my arm but is
gettiugbetter now, se don't worry about
me as 1 am getting along fine.
The weather here is lovely, but in
Franco our feet were never dry and I
only wish you could have seen me when
when we would come out of the trenches
we were mud to the eyes, so now 1 moat
close, remember me to all the folks
write soon and with love to all
1 am yours sincerely
Fred
