Mr. Empey's Experi-encesDuringHisSeven-teen
Months in the First
Line Trenches of the
British Army in France
(Oopjrlghl, im, br The McOlure Newspaper
tiynuluate)
It was 1914, and the great world
war was on, and here was I In the
United States innd neutral. For thtr-
teen y's I had been soldiering but
had never been under fire. In my
imagination I could hear the guns
booming on the western front. I ad
mit I was a trifle afraid ; nevertheless
I had a great desire to get Into the mix
up. How could I get over? .1 planned
out many ways, but none of ' them
i were practical.
One day while walking down Green
wich street, New York, I passed an
employment agency. Staring me In
the face was a great flaring sign,
"Horses for France." Under this
"Men Wanted." Here was my chancei
Upon returning to my office 1 Imme
diately got In touch over the telephone
with two prominent men In New York
Whom I knew to be distinctly pro-ally.
After outlining my desire, an 'appoint
ment was made for me to meet a cer
tain gentleman at the Hotel Astor at
four o'clock that afternoon. I met
him. He Introduced me to a French
man. At that time In my eyes a
Frenchman was a hero, a man to be
looked up to, a man fighting In the
Great Cause. But now a Frenchman
to me is more than a hero. After
being introduced I went up into the
Frenchman's room and talked over
the matter of horses for France for
about twenty minutes.
Upon leaving the Frenchman I was
told to report to. him three duys later,
at the fiume time and pluce'. I left,
bubbling over with enthusiasm and
anticipation.
During this interval of three days I
mapped out a story of my life to- pre
sent to him upon our second interview.
The eventful day at last came, and
once more I was closeted with him. I
started to tell him my story. He
Interrupted me by waving his right
hand to the right and left. It re
minded me of the butts on a target
runge during rifle practice, when the
man marking the target wigwags a
miss to the filing line. My heart sunk.
Then he spoke, und I was carried
from despondency to the greatest
height of expectation. His words:
"Pardon me, monsieur, I already
know your life," and In an amazingly
short time he told me more than I
knew about myself. I had been care
fully investigated.
My Instructions received from him
are confidential, so ,1 will not go Into
them. Anyway, he handed uie an en
velope and told me to follow out care
fully all details as contained therein.
I Immediately went back to my of
fice, opened the envelope nnd on a
typewritten sheet I rend : "Report at
Goldsmith's Employment agency. No.
Greenwich street. - Ship as an
ordinary horseman nnd during voyage
carefully follow the verbal Instruc
tions received by you during our In
terview, making careful note of all de
tails Immediately ul'ter happening. Be
cuutious In doing this. Upoti lauding
In France report to the prefecture of
police, Bordeaux, nnd to the letter
obey his Instructions. Good luck."
I went home and put on my oldest
clothes nn old black suit, olive drab
shirt, a pair of heavy army shoes and
a woolen cap. I hud let my beard grow
and certainly looked rough. t
In passing through City Hull park,
New York, one eees many derelicts
of the human race sitting on the
benches. I sut down between two of
these wrecks of humanity and en
gaged them In conversation, trying to
blend luto their atmosphere. About
ten minutes later a policenmu cume
past and told the three of us to move
on. I slouched away with the other
two. Telling them that I was going
out "panhuudllng," I took my leave, but
not before one of them made an ap
pealing and successful touch for a
nickel. The method used by him In se
curing that nickel would have done
credit to the greatest financiers In the
country In putting through a deal In
volving millions.
Going down Greenwich street,
slouching along, looking at the ground,
I ran plump Into a young lady of my
acquaintance. I hud a feeling of af
fection for this particular young ludy,
but It eoon died out upou heuring her
remark as I collided with her, "If you
cannot look where you are going, I
will have you arrested." Of course,
she dtd not recognize me and I took
no pains to argue the matter with her.
I wus glud enough to slink by.
When I came to the agency there
was a lung line of bums, two and three
deep, trying to ship as horsemen for
France.
It would, be Impossible to get a
rougher und more unkempt gathering
of men. It looked as If some huge
giant had takeu a Hue comb und cure
fully combed the gutters of New
York. . . . . ....
I fell into this line and waited my
turn. Upon arriving at the desk, in
front of me sat a little fat, greasy
Jew. To describe his manner of han
dling the men as being Impolite would
be a greut exaggeration. The'way he
handled that line of human cattle
would do the kulser's heart good.
It came my turu, and this conversa
tion ensued:
"What do you know about horses?"
I answered : "Six years in the United
Stutes cuvalry."
The Agent: "What regiments?"
"Eleventh and Twelfth."
"You're a liar. You never saw the
cavalry."
I felt like punching him on tho nose
but did not tlo so. I wunted to ship
us a horseman. I showed him my
discharges. He snld: "They're faked.
What did you do, desert or were you
kicked out?"
I was getting sore and answered:
"Deserted the Twelfth ; kicked out of
the Eleveuth."
"What's your name?"
"Arthur Guy Empey." ,:
"You're a German."
. This was too much even for me,
and I answered: "You're a damned
liar." I saw my chances of shipping
vanishing in smoke.
The Jew grinned nnd rubbed his
hands and said: "You're all right
Go Into that room and get a curd made
out, and come buck at two o'clock." t
I received a card and went to a
beanery across the street and had a
wonderful meal of corned beef hash,
muddy coffee and huge slices of bread,
minus butter. This cost me fifteen
cents.
At two o'clock I reported back, and
with seventy-two others was herded
like cattle, and in a long, straggling
illne, flanked by three of the employees
of the agency, we marched to the
ferry and landed "somewhere in New
Jersey." '
The ship, a huge three-stacker, was
lying alongside. . We were shoved Into
single file, ready to go up the gang
plank. Then our real examination
took place. At the foot of the gang
plank were a group of men around a
long table. They certainly put us
through a third degree to find out If
there was any German blood In us.
Several men were turned down. Luck
ily, I got through and signed for, the
voyage nnd went on board.
At the head of the gangplank stood
the toughest specimen of humanity I
have ever seen. He looked like a huge,
gorilla, and hud a big, crescent-shaped,
livid scar running from his left ear
under his chin up to his right eye.
Every Ime he spoke the edges of the
scar seemed to grow white. Hs nose
was broken and he had huge, shaggy
eyebrows. His hand was resting on
the rail of the ship. It looked like a
hum, nnd Inwardly I figured out what
would happen to me If that ham-like
fist ever came in contact with the
point of my jaw. As we passed him
he showered us with a few compli
mentary remarks, such as "Of all the
lousy scum I have seen, this bunch of
lubbers Is the worst, and this is what
they give me to take thirteen hundred
horses over to Bordeaux." Later on
I found this Individual was foreman of
the horse gang.
We were ordered aft and sat on the
after hatch. The fellow on my right
was a huge, blue-gummed negro. He
was continually scratching himself.
I unconsciously eased, away from him
and bumped into the fellow sitting on
my left. After a good look at htm I
eased back again in the direction of
the negro. I don't think that he had
taken a bath since escaping from the
cradle. Right then my uppermost
thought was how I could duck this
trip to France. The general conversa
tion among the horse gang was:
"When do we eat?"
We must have sat there about twenty
minutes, when the second foreman
came aft. I took fifteen guesses at his
nationality, and at lust came to the
conclusion that he wns a cross between
a Chinaman and a Mexican. He was
thin, ubout six feet tall, and wore a
huge sombrero. His skin was tanned
the color of leather. Every time he
smiled I hud the Impression that the
next minute he would plunt a stiletto
In my buck. His name was Plncro.
Ills Introduction to us was very brief:
"Get up off of that blunkety blunk
hutch and line up against the rull."
We did as ordered. Then he com
mnnded : "All the niggers line up
alongside. of the port rail." I guess a
lot of them did not know what he
meant by the "port rail" because they
looked very much bewildered. With
an oath he snnpped out. "You blnnk
ety blunk Idiots. The port rnll Is thut
rull over there. Come on. Move or
I'll soon move yon." He looked well
able to do this and the niggers prompt
ly slmllliHl over to the place designat
ed. He quickly dlv'ded us Into squads
of twelve men, then ordered ; "All of
you who are deserters from the army
or who lmve seen service In the cav
alry step out In front." Four others
besides myself stopped out. The first
mnn he cume to he .informed : "You're
a straw boss.. Do you know what a
straw boss Is?" ' Thls mnn meekly
answered. "No. sir." With, another
onth, the second foreman said: "All
right, you're not a strW boss; fall
back." I got the cue Immediately.
My turn cume next.
"Do you know what a straw boss
Is?"
I snld: "Sure." ' .
He snld : "All right, you're n straw
boss."
I hnd not the least Idea of what
he wns talking about, but made up
my mind thut It would not take me
long to find out. Then he passed
down the line, picking out straw
bosses. I asked one of the men In my
gang whnt were the duties of a straw
boss. He hnd been over with horses
before, and told me that a straw boss
meant to be In charge of the gang to
food the horses nnd to draw nnd keep
careful chock on the straw, hay, oats
and 'brnn. Having served In the cav
alry, this Job, ns I figured, would be
regulur pie for me.
In about an hour and a half s time
Plnero hnd selected his straw bosses
and divided the men into gangs, and
assigned us to our quarters on the
ship. These quarters were between
decks and very much crowded; -the
stench wus awful, iron bunks, three
deep, with filthy and lousy mattresses
on them, were set luto the sides of the
snip, 'me atmosphere In tnat oircy
hole turned nay stomach and I was
longing for the fresh air of the deck.
A dirty bum, with tobacco running
out of the corner of his mouth, turned
to me and asked: "Do the graybacks
bother you much, matey?" A shud
der ran' through me as I answered :
"Not much." But I figured out that
as soon as I got them, which I knew
would occur In a very short time, they
certainly would bother me, but I had
to keep a stiff upper Up If I wanted
to retain their respect and my author
ity as a straw boss.
