has developed, but she is the young
est and one of the very first women
in France to be given the War Cross.
Beginning a yeur ago last October,
when the Germans first occupied Loos,
she succeeded in so winning the re
spect of the Germans as to keep im
mune from molestation or disturb
ance her aged father who was slowly
dying of chagrin over1 France's
troubles. When the father died, the
Germans themselves gave ' Mile.
Moreau the wood out of which she
fashioned a coffin, though in accept
ing it she gave them to understand
that nothing could ever diminish her
French enmity towards them.
Almost immediately afterwrd came
rumors of the impending attack by
the English. This attack began Sep
tember 25. With the first roar of
the three day's artillery bombardment
preceding the infantry attack Mille.
Moreau posted herself in the garret
of her three-story home to watch the
battle.
For three days she lay here, face
downward, without food, watching.
Shells burst about the house. Neigh
boring walls and roofs crashed down,
but Mille. Moreau's home was not
touched.
Finally came the moment for the in
fantry assault. The kilted Highland
ers fought into the streets of Loos,
while Mille. Monreau -dragged their
wounded into her home and cared for
them. ' . '
In the midst of this task she dis
covered that five Germans who had
taken refuge in a cave were firing on
the advancing English and could not
be dislodged. Seizing a revolver from
the hand of a dead Englishman and a
grenade from another she charged.
The hurled grenade killed three. The
two remaining, with fixed bayonets,
charged. Calmly she stood, revolver
posed, until the shining blades were
almost at her breast, then shot both i
men. I
As the shot echoes die daway, the
main hody of the Scotch came in sign
ing "God Save the King." Moreau let
them finish, then leaping before the
troops, began the "Marseillaise."
She had not finished the first verse
before every Scotchman had joined
her. , .
