In the letter Mr. Hatch relates a number ol interesting experiences and Mrs. Hatch kindly consented to having them published: France, Oct. 5, 19is. Of course 1 cant tell you the details of our trip over the top," but let ine tell you I dont want all of the expe rience to be repeated and it won't be. Everything went fine the first two days and we drove the enemy back over eight miles, but Sunday afternoon can best be described by the story of the "Charge of the Light Brigade. only this eclipsed that many times. I will tell you all about it when 1 get home, I happened to have the honor of leading the first crowd of German prisDioners captured by the Ninety-firs- t vision from the front to Brigade Headquarters. There were nine of them. I am sending you a service badge which I got from one of them. There was just a bit of thrill connected with the first to be captured, but many more were soon marched to headquarters so that this like most everything else has become quite commonplace. I cant account for my good health under the conditions ' of the past month. I have slept many nights with nothing but an overcoat for a bed, not even grass or straw between me and and rain pourthe wet mother earth ing down from above until I shook I have like & malted milk shaker. walked half the night to keep warm, only to be rained on all the next day. Well through it all I have less cold" now than I generally have at home all the time. We have had nothing to eat but hard ta()k and dried beef for several dayd and yel 1 have never boen more well. No one can ever tell me that Providence Is not blessing me and 1 do feel so thankful. T. N. (Brunker) and 1 have been together all the time. 1 am going to relate one incident to show you how he and 1 were protected. During our trip "over the top" there wasnt an hour passed during the nine days that we We were not under German sliell-flre- . were finally placed on a post in an old stone quarry. We made our bed at the east end and worked on it until we had it fixed up in great shape. Then we moved down the line about 50 yards. It was hard to leave such a place, apparently for so little reason. While we were on our newly made bed a mustard gas shell lit within four feet of the spot where we certainly would have been lying, had we not moved our bunk. Our chances would have been mighty slim" because our new spot was covered with steel, and mud and we got a very strong odor of mustard gas. I could tell of many similar escapes but will wait until I get home. Out of it all I have only a bit of a scratch on my left thumb nail. You see It happened this way: A lot of us fellows were together joking and eating bard tack,' when a Dutch shell whizzed right over our heads and lit and exploded within fifteen feet of us. Well, we were covered with mud, two men were wounded and a piece of the shrapnel hit me on the thumb, knocking the hard tack into the next trench where I soon followed. I will write often now until we go over again. When that will he. I dont know soon, I suppose. A. HATCH Co. B. 362nd Inf., A. E. F.. A. I.
