Author of "OVER THE TOP"
(Continued from Last Week)
Tne next morning tnff'Uoctor fixed
me up with court plaster and I was
Installed as assistant veterinarian at
$30 for the trip. I was to sleep In
"Doc" Casey's stateroom, wheue ha
had his medicine stock, but before en
tering the room "DocT told me, "Take
this bucket of water ; put a few drops
of creosote In It, and go aft on the
hatch and take a good bath, and throw
your underwear away."
I asked him what for. He answered:
"When you take your shirt off, take a
a good look at It and you'll see why."
I began to feel Itchy all over but mi
nutely followed his Instructions.
Upon taking my shirt off, one look
was enough. It was alive, and over
the rail It went. Doc loaned me a
white suit and took charge of my
outer clothing. What he did with
them I don't know, but that afternoon
lie returned them to me. They were
shrunk a size smaller, but were clean.
I was satisfied. So was Doc,
Five days out we ran Into a squall
and our work was cut out for us. We
even hod horses on the decks In
wooden stalls. The ship was lurching
and pitching, and huge seas would
burst over the gunwales.
Several of the wooden stnlls gave
way and the horses were loose on the
deck. With every lurch of the ship
a couple of horses would fall, and,
kicking and snorting, would slide down
the inclined deck, hitting against
wltiches and the hatchway, scraping
their hides off. It was worth a man's
life to get Into that mess.
Then I had more or less respect for
the foreman and second foremun.
Into the midst of that struggling and
kicking bunch of horses they went, as
sisted by Doc Casey. Four of the
horses received broken legs, and Pln
ero, Instead of shooting them, cut
their throats with a sharp dagger he
carried.
One of the negroes from the lower
hold staggered to the upper deck with
Staggered to the Upper Deck With HI
Face .Blanched Almost White.
his fuce blanched almost white, and
his eyes popping out of his head. Be
tween gasps lie Informed us Unit a
whole section of stalls, 24 In all, hud
been carried awuy between decks, and
that the horses were loose. He said
three negroes in his gang were caught
In this stnnipede.
The foreman mustered most of the
men, and dividing them Into three
groups, In charge of himself, the sec
ond foreman and Dot; Casey, they went
below. I followed. An awful sight -.net
my eyes.
The ship was lurching In a horrible
manner. All I could see was, one
minute a pile of kicking horses,
smnshed-up plnnks nnd the three ne
groes plied up in one corner of the
compartment, and then, with a lurch
of the ship, they would slide Into the
other. Nothing could be done by us.
It was madness to attempt anything.
The three negroes were dead.
Thnt night and the following day
was n perfect hell on the ship for men
and horses. The Rhlp rodo through
the squall,- and when It became calm
we all got busy. Out of the 24 horses
between decks we had to shoot 17 on
account of injuries. Besides the 17
3 hud died from broken necks. The
4 remaining horses were still alive
hut hardly had a square foot of hide
left. They were a pitiful Bight.
The next day the three negroes
were burled at sen without a word of
prayer.
For the next couple of days noth
ing of Importance happened.
About four days out of Bordeaux
one of the large steam pipes In the
lower hold burst. In this hold there
were 04 horses. The engineer of
the ship tried to repair the break,
hut It was almost worth a man's
life to go down there In that hiss
ing and sculdlng steam, fl'he cries
of the horses went straight to my
heart. All we could do was to turn
streams of cold salt water from three
pairs of hose Into the hold, thus try-
lug to keep the heat down and save
as many horses as possible.
Why the engineer did not shut off
the steam I don't know. I noted this
fuct in my report. After ubout four
hours the steam was shut off and the
two foremen, Doc Casey and myself,
followed by twelve other men, went
Into the hold. I will never forget the
sight as long as I live. Nearly every
one of the horses was dead, and those
which stilt remained alive hud to be
shot. Some of them were practically
boiled alive. The Weather was hot,
and It was not long before the rotting
bodies of the horses made the stench
on bonrd unbearable. We hud to get
these bodies out. Long tackles were
rigged up, a chain around the neck of
a dead horse, nnd I worked the winch.
Tn hmlltfH were snaked gjoux. the
passageways in the horn ana up to um
hatch. Some of the bodies would not
hold together, and it was a common
sight to see a dead horse suspended
in the air by his hind leg drop sud
denly into the hold below, leaving his
leg bunging to the tackle.
Every horse sent to France Is
branded with a different brand. They
have a system of Indexing them. As
each dead horse was snaked to the
upper deck, Doc "had to stoop over
and make a note of the brand before
the horse was thrown overboard.
As the dead horses were dropped
over the side, a resounding splash
could be heard and the water was
churned Into a foamy white as the
body momentarily sank from view.
Then the bloated body of the horse
would reuppear nnd disappear in the
wake of the ship, the seagulls hover
ing and screaming around it.
The grub on thnt ship was awful,
and a day out of Bordeaux the gang
of horsemen refused to work. The
foreman mustered them on the autln
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
got out.
Just outside of the entrance of the
river leading to Bordeaux, a small,
rakish boat, flying the trl-color of
France, came alongside. We hove to
and up the gangplank came three
French officers. They were closeted
with the captain of the ship and our
foreman, and after about twenty min
utes, left and we continued on our
course. .
Going up the river In some 'places
the banks were only about twenty
feet away. We could see the French
women tilling their fields. As we
went by these workers stopped and
waved their hands In the air to us, and
we waved back. It was my first sight
of France, and I was not In any way
disappointed. It lived up to my expec
tations. 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 fellows, nearly
every one being six feet or over. They
were guarded by little French soldiers,
averaging about five feet five inches,
with a ionir rifle, havonet fixed. This
nne, in comparison wlrrv tlie rrencn
man, looked like a telegraph pole. The
soldiers had on.the old blue overcoats,
the tails buttoned back, pattern of
1871.
As we passed the German prisoners
they scowled at us, and we, feeling
quite safe on the deck, yelled back In
sults at them. One big Irishman;
right near me, took great glee In Jump
ing up and down on the hatchway and
running his finger across his throat.
This seemed to enrage the prisoners
and they yelled something in German.
The Irishman must huve understood
It, because he let out a volley of curses
In return. The French sentries seem
ed to enjoy thin barrage of Insults and
did not In any way attempt to curtail
the prisoners' remarks. This, at the
time, struck me as depicting a remark
able sense of fairness, npd later on,
during my service on the western
front, I found out that the French
man in all his dealings is fair' and
Just.
Pretty soon the prisoners faded out
of sight and we came alongside the
dock at Bordeaux. I was nil eagerness
nnd strained my eyes so as not to miss
the least thing. The dock was full of
French cavalrymen, hurrying to and
fro. Huge Turcos, black as the ace
of spades, with white turbans on
their heads, were majestically strid
ing about.
After we warped Into the dock and
made fast, our work was over. We had
nothing to do with the unloading of
the horses. The French cavalrymen
came aboard with a bunch of cavalry
halters hanging over their arms. It
was a marvel to see with what ease
and efficiency that ship was unload
ed. The condition of the horses was
pitiful. They could hardly bend their
legs from stiffness. They would hob
ble down the gangplank and stand
trembling on the dock. In about a
minute or so they would stretch their
necks way up Into the air and seem
to be tuklng long breaths of the pure
air. Then they started to whinny.
They were calling backward and for
ward to each other. Even though I
did not understand horse language, I
knew exactly what they were saying.
They were' thanking the good Lord
for their deliverance from that hell
ship, nnd were looking forward to
green pastures and a good roll In the
dirt. Pretty soon you could see them
bend their forelegs nnd He down on
the dock: then try to roll over. It
was pitiful ; some of them did not
have the strength to turn over and
they feebly kicked. Pretty soon the
whole dock was a mass of rolling
horses, the Frenchmen Jumping
around, gesticulating and Jabbering.
' After getting the horses up, they
were divided Into classes according to
their height and weight. Then each
horse was led Into a ring chalked out
on the dock tmd the army Inspectors
examined it. Very few were reject
ed. From this ring of chalk they
were, led Into n portable stall and
branded. You could hear the sing
song voice of the brnnder shouting out
what sounded like "Battry Loo." As
he yelled this, a French private would
come over, get the horse which had
been branded, nnd lend It away. I
Eot In conversation with an Inter
preter and he Informed 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
Bhells and cracking bullets.
I, after passing a rigid examination
ns to my nationality, and being Issued
a cnttlemnn's passport, Inquired my
way to the prefecture of police. I
deliverd to him a sealed envelope
which I had received In New York.
Upon opening It. he was very gracious
to me and I went Into a rear room,
where the Interpreter put me through
a grilling' examlnntlon. From there
I was taken to a hotel, and the next
morning In the company of a sergeant
rd a urlvate. iwt Into a little mat;h-
oox compartment oil me runniest iook-
Ing train I ever saw. The track seem
ed 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 26
hours we reached a little town. Sup
plies were piled up as high as houses.
Officers nnd enlisted men were hurrying
to and fro, and I could see long trains
of supply wagons and artillery Umbers
always moving in the sume direction.
I wus ushered Into the presence of
a French officer, who, I later found but,
was a brigadier general of the quar
termaster corps, I could hear a dis
tant booming, and upon Inquiring
found out that it was the guns of
France, striving to hold back the Ger
man 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
ou the western front.
Two days afterward I again reached
Boideaux, and shipped to New York
ou the French liner Rochunibeaux.
Upon arriving in New York I reported
to tlie Frenchman who had sent me
over. He was very courteous, and as
I reached out to shake hunds with him,
he placed both hands on my shoulders
and kissed me on the right and left
cheek. I was dumfounded, blushed all
over, and after receiving the pay that
was due me, I left.
I think I could have borne another
trip across with horses, but that being
kissed upon my return completely got
my goat.
I went back to the routine of my
office, but everything had lost color and
appeared monotonous. I believe I had
left my heart In France, and I felt
raj-un and small, eating three square
meuls a day and sleeping on a soft
bed, when the armies on the other side
were making the world's history.
Sometimes when sleeping I would
huve a horrible nightmnre ; I could see
those horses being boiled alive in
steam.
Several times later I passed that
sign on Greenwich street, "Horses for
France, Men Wanted," and the picture
of the second foreman dropping the
pasty-faced doctor would loom before
my eyes. I do not know to this duy
what became of that nervy wreck of
humanity, who had the temerity to tell
our foreman where he got off at. I
know he did not make the passage
with us. ,
