PREFACE
WHEN I was commissioned to write this book I
found it necessary to adhere rigidly to a definite
policy on account of the limits of space. Primarily
the book was written for the men and the satisfaction of
the next of kin. The Regiment was raised to fight the
enemy; those things which helped to advance that cause
and were a means to that end were given preference.
Despite the necessity of condensation, no time has been
omitted or glossed over without some reference to it, so
that no man, no matter how short his association with
the Regiment, will find a void where his interests centred.
All the commanding officers kindly read those chap
ters of the book which included the time under their
command. To them the author is especially grateful
and in particular to Lieutenant-Colonel H. D. Lockhart
Gordon D.S.O., who originally proposed this history and
throughout its preparation gave, generously, many hours
of his days and evenings in helping with various details.
Also Lieutenant-Colonel W. R. Patterson D.S.O., whose
long service with the Regiment combined with his prodig
ious memory, was of the greatest assistance.
Captain R. Innes-Taylor, formerly Adjutant of the
Battalion, gathered together a large amount of informa
tion and prepared material which was of the greatest
assistance.
The Regimental War Diary was my guide; all dates,
names and movements were taken from it and I was
particularly fortunate in having one of the best Diaries
of any Regiment in the Great War, to consult. This is
verified by the reference to it in the Army Quarterly,
October, 1924, which printed extracts and commented
that, "one Adjutant of an overseas battalion possessed
a bright style and used particularly crisp phraseology in
compiling his Diary. 3 The Adjutant referred to was
xii 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Captain Gregory Clark, M.C., to whom I am indebted,
not only for his work on the Diary, but for his many
courtesies to me during the writing of the book. Captain
G. D. Fleming, who succeeded Captain Clark in August,
1918, maintained the high standard of the Diary. Ser
geant-Major Featherstonhaugh, who was orderly-room
sergeant, with the Regiment from the first and respon
sible for the safe-keeping of the records, was of invalu
able assistance in checking the proofs. Lieutenant-
Colonel G. F. McFarland lent me his excellent personal
Diary and read the manuscript.
The Historical Section of the General Staff, Ottawa,
kindly provided copies of various documents and pre
pared other material and were at all times ready to pro
vide assistance. The page-proofs of the book were read
by the Section and numerous suggestions and minor
inaccuracies pointed out. For the assistance afforded, the
author is greatly indebted to the Director and Staff of
the Historical Section.
The maps were inspired by Mr. Emery Walker and
drawn in the style of the cartographers of the seventeenth
century by Mr. I. H. Kerr, a student attending the
Ontario College of Art. I am indebted to Mr. Kerr for
his faithful execution and meticulous adherence to detail
and also for his artistic page-ends which embellish the
book.
To the many Officers and men who helped me in
various ways I tender my thanks and appreciation, only
a few of whom I have space to mention ; Major W. E. L.
Coleman, M.C., Major M. M. Hart, M.C., and Major
Victor Sifton, D.S.O., impartially advised me.
I have tried to give the correct weight and perspec
tive throughout. To the best of my ability I have
been, I trust, unbiased, neutral and just.
S. G. BENNETT
FOREWORD
AFTER the operations in the area of Festubert and
La Bassee Canal in 1915 where our casualties
had been heavy, the Canadian Troops were moved North
to the Messines Front and remained there during the
winter of 1915-1916.
All who were on this front well remember the numerical
weakness of our Battalions, reduced by casualties to half
their normal strength and holding against attack frontages
proportional to a Battalion at full strength. They will
recall all the general disheartening conditions; the
incessant German shelling and discouraging silence of
our guns due to the scarcity of ammunition; the never-
ending demands for working parties to construct at night
new trenches or recondition the old; the continual rains,
increasing at times to such volume and violence that the
work of one month would be washed away in one night;
and the futility of our efforts to drive mines in this
quagmire of a front.
Fighting did not lower the morale of our men, in fact
it improved it, but this unending struggle against the
forces of Nature, the lack of warmth and dry clothing,
want of sleep and a dry place to sleep in, all began to
have an adverse effect on the spirits and courage of our
gallant mud-caked fighters and diggers.
Effective censorship had dropped an impenetrable
curtain behind us, cutting off our view and knowledge
Xlll
xiv 4 TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
of any possible reinforcements to relieve us in our grave
needs. We really began to wonder whether our people
at home had forgotten us, or whether in sending one
Division and one Cavalry Brigade to the Front Canada
had made her one and only stake in this World s War.
Our minds assured us that such a situation could not
exist; but our weary bodies reminded us that it did exist.
Standing one day at a respectful distance from an
unhealthy cross-road the censor s curtain suddenly lifted
and we saw a column of men approaching, tall, well-built,
clean of clothes and equipment, clean of face and hands-
something quite foreign to us in our surroundings. Who
were they? Our reinforcements at last, the C. M. R.
Brigades, and of them the future 4lh C. M. R. Battalion,
the familiar faces of the men of Toronto, my home, and
of whose deeds and sacrifices you read about in this book.
The distant skirl of the pipes brought no greater relief to
the besieged Garrison of Lucknow than did the sight of
these men to us the Advance Guard of the greater
Canadian Forces to come.
In this manner I made my second acquaintance with
the C. M. R. my first during the South African War
over twenty-five years ago. A mysterious organization,
these C. M. R., non-existent in Peace but coming to life
in War, with territorial associations stretching from the
Atlantic to the Pacific and embodying men of every walk
in life, voluntarily tendering their services during a
National peril and u)illing to sacrifice their all in their
Country s service the Canadian Fascisti. And as they
arrived in South Africa years ago during the dark weeks
FOREWORD xv
of that campaign where they brought material assistance
and consolation to their distressed comrades, so they
arrived in France bringing messages of hope and
encouragement from our far-distant Canada.
Later I had the honour to succeed General V. A. S.
Williams as the Commander of the C. M. R. Brigade,
composed of the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Battalions, which
were subsequently embodied in the 3rd Canadian Division
as the 8th Canadian Infantry Brigade. Whilst under
my Command as a Brigade in this Division, we fought the
major offensive operations of the Somme, Vimy, and
Passchendcele and the very costly defensive operations
of the Ypres Salient. In all these and other operations
the C. M. R. contributed their full share towards General
Sir Arthur Currie s proud claim at the termination of the
war that "the Canadian Corps had never failed to gain
their objective in the attack, or permanently lost one yard
of territory in the defence," and though I may be accused
of prejudice I feel that during my Command of two years
no other Brigadier was as fortunate as I in having
such loyal and gallant Officers and men under him as the
old C. M. R.
My best wishes to my old comrades now living: and to
those dead, may they rest in peace.
THE 4TH CANADIAN
MOUNTED RIFLES
CHAPTER I
CANADA AND ENGLAND
r 1^\ HE Fourth Canadian Mounted Rifles under authority Aug.
of the Department of Militia and Defence became 1914
a unit of the Canadian Expeditionary Force on
November 5th, 1914. Major-General F. L.Lessard,
C.B., commanding Military District No. 2 issued
instructions that the personnel was to be drafted from four
cavalry militia regiments of Ontario, a quota to be taken
from the Governor-General s Body Guard, 2nd Dragoons,
9th Mississauga Horse and 25th Brant Dragoons. The
command was given to Lieut. -Colonel Vaux Chad wick, of
the Reserve of Officers, a former commanding officer of
the 9th Mississauga Horse. The establishment called for
twenty-eight officers and five hundred and seventy-seven
non-commissioned officers and men.
At the outbreak of war in August, 1914, cavalrymen
were among the first to volunteer their services and were
disappointed when they learned that they would not be
called up with the first contingent. They were told by
the Government, however, that they would be required
eventually and the Governor-General, H. R. H. the Duke
of Connaught, intimated that cavalry would probably be
needed in Egypt. With this encouragement the Governor-
General s Body Guard, commanded by Lieut. -Colonel
Sandford Smith and the 9th Mississauga Horse commanded
by Lieut. -Colonel H. D. Lockhart Gordon on their own
initiative opened voluntary training camps, the former at
Aurora, Ontario, and the latter on the shore of Lake
i i
2 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Au s Ontario, near Long Branch. These rival camps, work
ing toward the same goal, were soon training men, acquir
ing equipment and preparing for the future without
any official authority, but with general approval.
The City of Toronto and Lieut.-Colonel H. C. Cox,
Honorary Colonel of the Mississauga Horse, kindly
purchased about two hundred horses to mount these
regiments, which enabled them to commence their eques
trian training.
As soon as authority was given, Lieut.-Colonel Vaux
Chadwick began to organize the new regiment, which
was first known as the Ontario Mounted Rifles. Subse
quently it became the 4th Canadian Mounted Rifles and
was brigaded with the 5th and 6th Canadian Mounted
Rifles in the 2nd Canadian Mounted Brigade, the 5th and
6th C. M. R. being raised in the Eastern Townships of
Quebec and the Maritime Provinces. The quota from
the Mississauga Horse and the Body Guard was avail
able at once and moved to the Exhibition Grounds on
NOV. 16, November 16th, followed by the Brant Dragoons on the
21st and the 2nd Dragoons on the 23rd. In order to
assimilate the different units, each Squadron was com
posed of one troop from each regiment.
The new regiment was first billeted in buildings of the
Canadian National Exhibition. These buildings, erected
to display the prize crafts and stock of the land, now did
service in sheltering the officers and men and their horses.
The men were of the first and best that Canada offered
to the Mother Country. They came from every walk of
life and were of the same mettle as those who pierced the
Red River country or went to South Africa. Endowed
with native ability and characteristic ingenuity, they
were soon to be trained and drilled into an efficient
fighting force to stand beside the brawn of Britain and
honourably acquit themselves.
Material sacrifices made by this apparently care-free
multitude were small compared to what was probably
the greatest decision of their lives; namely, to give up the
duty to their loved ones and accept the duty to their
country. Once they had made the momentous decision
Lieutenant-Colonel W. C. Vaux Chadwick.
CANADA AND ENGLAND 3
to answer the call to arms, the men took unto themselves
the contagious cavalry spirit. They faced the rigorous
and embarrassing physical examination and went on their
first parade with mingled feelings of pride and ignorance.
The old soldier felt the superiority of his experience, but
he, too, was not without his emotions. Training commen
ced with a vigour and enthusiasm which could be felt
and shown only by men physically fit and carefully chosen,
who had volunteered with all the eagerness of youth
anxious to serve.
In addition to the two hundred horses turned over to
the Regiment about five hundred more were received.
Unfortunately, or, perhaps, in a way fortunately, no
bridles or saddles were available for some considerable
time and in consequence this necessary equipment was
borrowed from the Mississaugua Horse for the use of
officers and troop guides. The men, of necessity, were
trained to ride bareback, Indian fashion, with improvised
bridles and rope-bits and on one occasion attracted
attention by going on a nine-mile route-march through
the streets of Toronto, the entire regiment riding bare
back. They turned out for their first review by Major-
General Sam Hughes, K.C.B., Minister of Militia,
before the equipment arrived. Happily, however, the
men wore great-coats to cover the deficiency in saddles
and they handled their horses so well that the lack was
barely noticeable. They trained for the first three
months in this way, which probably accounted for the
excellent riding displayed, and for the number of prizes
the original men won in overseas tournaments.
All equipment was slow in coming and the men would J ai *.
have suffered considerably from lack of sufficient winter
clothing had it not been for the kindness of many people
in Toronto who provided felt boots and other urgent
necessities so that it was possible to carry on training
even in the coldest weather. Those days were long,
because they were new. They are remembered because
of the impressions which are vivid when not too dulled by
tedium. How short in actual time they were, compared
with the days to follow! The life at the Exhibition
4 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
{915 Grounds will be recalled with outstanding freshness
because of its novelty; the unusually early rising, the
ablutions, the cook house, the stables, the business of
grooming, feeding and watering the obstreperous horses,
all unaccustomed features of a new existence.
Musketry practice, which gave some so much pleasure
on the ranges at Long Branch, was to others a great
trial. The use of a rifle was not a new thing to the many
militiamen in the unit, but there were a few who nursed a
painful shoulder for the first time.
Early in the spring of 1915 the Governor-General,
H. R. H. the Duke of Connaught, came from Ottawa for
an inspection of the unit and commented in the most
glowing terms upon its efficiency and splendid appearance.
He remarked that he had rarely seen a regiment so well
mounted. This was not surprising, as some of the most
valuable hunters in the country were amongst the uni
formly splendid mounts. There was a persistent rumour
that the Regiment was for Egypt, to be brigaded under
General Maxwell, and after the inspection everyone felt
that it was the last thing preparatory to leaving. There
was great disappointment when this proposal was not
carried out. Following this shattered hope came an order
which was even more disheartening. The Regiment was
called upon to supply horses as chargers for the officers df
the Second Canadian Division, then leaving for overseas.
No order could have been more discouraging. To be
given a strange horse, to get acquainted with him by
feeding, grooming, learning to ride him and caring for
him, and then suddenly to lose him, was a bitter pill.
Many a man, as he toiled over his horse or cleaned his
saddlery, dreamed of the day when he would ride him
in France where he would have to rely upon his stamina
and training to carry him in action.
Ma y In May, 1915, the Regiment was asked to volunteer for
overseas service as a dismounted unit. There were
many regrets, naturally, in abandoning the horses ; never
theless, the men were eager to get to the field of action
and so, rather than kick their heels forever in a training-
camp, three thousand miles from the guns, they accepted
Lieutenant-Colonel Sandford Smith, D.S.O.
CANADA AND ENGLAND 5
the inevitable as gracefully as possible. Shortly after
wards all were moved to Niagara-on-the-Lake, where
training was pursued under continued difficulties. The
Regiment was over-strength in officers and men, but only
half-strength in horses. This unhappy condition was
accentuated when orders were received to proceed to
Valcartier, with only enough horses to bring the estab
lishment to that of an infantry unit. Thus a second
parting with horses was made. Regrets at this time had
some compensation, as it meant a move nearer the theatre
of war.
The Regiment arrived at Valcartier in June and at once
joined with the 5th and 6th Canadian Mounted Rifles to
form the 2nd Canadian Mounted Rifles Brigade, under
Colonel C. A. Smart. At Valcartier, the command
changed. Lieut. -Colonel Vaux Chadwick, who had never
become reconciled to the Regiment being a dismounted
unit, was transferred to Headquarters on June 23rd and
appointed Brigade Major of the 7th Overseas Infantry
Brigade, composed of French Canadians and units from
the Maritime Provinces. Later on he raised and trained
the 124th Overseas Battalion, which was another unit
recruited from the Governor-General s Body Guard and
Mississauga Horse. This Battalion he commanded in
France. The wonderful training in discipline and the
determination shown by Lieut. -Colonel Vaux Chadwick
that nothing should be left undone in the way of prepara
tion, bore fruit in the noble stand made by the Fourth
C. M. R. in its first action on June 2nd, 1916. In succes
sion to Lieut. -Colonel Chadwick came Lieut. -Colonel
Sandford F. Smith, with Lieut. -Colonel H. D. Lockhart
Gordon as Second-in-Command. The Regiment carried
out cavalry drill on foot and did brigade manoeuvres.
The men found their month s drilling rather trying after
the loss of their horses, but many pleasant escapades can
be recalled which helped to pass the time.
The famous drag hunts of the Canadian Mounted Rifles
will be remembered with mixed feelings. They would
start with an innocent canter which would develop into a
mad gallop through a wood followed by wonderful
6 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
J i9?s "fencing" on the flat. Then Lieut. D. MacKay would
invariably challenge an unsuspecting officer to join in a
race to the finish. By the time they were going too hard
to pull up they would come suddenly to a creek too wide
to jump that ran into the Valcartier River. The first
plunge would land the horses up to their chests; the
next moment they had to swim and when attempting to
climb up the opposite bank the majority of the riders
would lose their seats and roll backwards into the water.
Captain W. V. Sifton swears he had to swim the river to
save his life and Captain Allan Taylor claimed that he
received the marks of a horse s hoof in the middle of his
back when he was at the bottom of the creek.
The repeated rumours of sailings and getting prepared
to leave Canada kept everyone in a state of hopeful
enthusiasm. Speculations as to the future, rumours and
conjectures were soon consummated in definite orders.
The long eight months of training in Canada were near
their end. An increasing zeal prior to the expected embark
ation was apparent, and when, on the 9th of July, 1915,
a party of one officer and forty men sailed for England
with the horses of the 2nd Canadian Mounted Rifles
Brigade, the men realized that it would not be long
before they, too, would take the journey to which they
had so long looked forward.
Early in July, H. R. H. the Duke of Connaught made
his last inspection of the Regiment and on July 18th the
brigade went aboard the transport awaiting them at
Quebec. The S. S. Hesperian carried the 4th and 5th
Canadian Mounted Rifles and the Brigade Headquarters
Staff. At last they were on their way to England.
The transport stole noiselessly down the river past the
Isle d Orleans and into widening banks, leaving behind
on the horizon the historic Citadel; its mystic charm and
mediaeval atmosphere became lost in the rolling purple
crests of the Laurentians. The twinkling lights in the
white cottages nestling on the river s edge beaconed the
troops along the winding shores of this ancient river
whose restless waters for three centuries had borne armies
to and from Europe. The embracing mountains were
CANADA AND ENGLAND 7
illuminated in turn by a gorgeous sunrise or an incom-
parable sunset until dank depressing fogs rose from the
Banks. For several days the mist delayed the voyage,
but when it lifted the desolate mysterious landscape soon
faded into the hazy horizon of the Atlantic. Submarines
were active, but even though these men had known that
the very boat* on which they felt so secure was doomed to
be torpedoed by the Germans they would have treated
this latent menace in their usual frivolous manner.
As a precaution against submarines extra watches were
kept. All portholes were closed and darkened at night.
No lights were allowed which lent a mysterious and eerie
atmosphere as the ship ploughed through the darkness of
the night. Even though there were fatigues, guards and
watches to perform, the passage was a gay climax after
months on land.
Nevertheless, it was with feelings of interest and excite- j u i y 29,
ment that they came into view of the shores of old England. 1915
The transport steamed into the roadstead of Plymouth
Sound, which was receiving back younger generations of
forbears who, a century before, had sailed from it.
Romance was developing rapidly in the lives of these
young grandsons of the Motherland. On July 29th the
Regiment disembarked and entrained for Shorncliffe.
The interest of the men was absorbed in the new and
strange things which confronted them at every turn; the
trains, the railway carriages, the hedges, the green fields
and winding lanes.
The troops detrained that night and marched into tent
billets at Dibgate Hill. Training recommenced; route
marches were made along the macadam roads of Kent;
manoeuvres were carried out on the beautiful green
downs overlooking the English Channel; musketry was
practised at Hythe, where the regiment made the highest
average of all Canadian regiments that shot there. This
intensive training was punctuated with the inevitable
leave" to London. Recreation was found in regimental
sports and concerts, or in the much frequented canteens.
* The S. S. Hesperian was afterwards torpedoed and sunk by the Germans,
while returning on her second voyage after conveying the 4th C.M.E. to England.
8 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Sept. 23, After two months at Dibgate the Regiment, on September
23rd, moved to Caesar s Camp. Here the men received
their Webb equipment, ammunition and all the essentials
of actual warfare. Probably nothing was so significant
in all these young soldiers preparation as receiving their
identification discs. Not even the field dressing or the
rifle and its bayonet had the same sobering effect or was
so indicative of the seriousness of the conflict in which
they were about to participate as the reception of these
little metal discs. The last days of final preparation
were calm and serious days, camouflaged under a veneer
of cheery conviviality.
C 9i5 4 Thus, after three very full months spent in England, the
Regiment found itself on the eve of departure fit and ready
for active service. On Sunday evening, the 24th of
October, 1915, the men, in full marching order, proceeded
to Folkestone on their way to France. A band played
them along the road over which thousands had already
tramped. The cheery songs, the witty quips and jocular
drollery lightened the bulging packs and heavy equip
ment. The church bells were ringing in the channel port.
The people from the roadside offered encouraging fare
wells and cheered them until they disappeared along the
quay and crowded on board the waiting packet-boat.
Another great moment had arrived. The long months
since enlistment were forgotten in the excitement of
embarkation. The endless labyrinth of thoughts that
crowded the minds of these men were confused by their
strong emotions; memories of families, sweethearts and
old associations were mingled with efforts to visualize the
uncertain future; cheerful optimism was disturbed by
solemn reflections; Spartan-like stoicism was blended
with philosophical fatalism.
In the waning light of this October Sunday evening
the ship, with its living cargo, slipped away from the gull-
swept jetty into the swell of the channel, and sped for
the chalky cliffs of France.
CHAPTER II
FRANCE AND THE TRENCHES
D
Oct.
ARKNESS had fallen when the transport glided 1915
into the old port of Boulogne, which had
become one of the great funnels into which men
and materials were poured for the British front.
Disembarking at ten o clock the Regiment
marched through the old-fashioned fishing town to
St. Martin s Camp, a large base-depot on the hills
overlooking the town. Here the troops rested for thirty-
six hours, becoming acquainted with the estaminet and
cafe, tasting the raw cider, mild beer and wines of
the country. Many saw for the first time the weather-
beaten Frenchman in his baggy corduroy trousers and
heavy clogs, or the fisher-woman in her quaint white
bonnet and wooden shoes, or the teamster walking beside
his enormous two-wheeled cart drawn by a splendid
tandem of native dappled Boulonnais.
On October 26th the Regiment entrained at Boulogne 1915
and went ; up the line. " The men had their first
experience of a French troop-train with its little trucks,
their capacity plainly marked on the outside: "40
hommes, 8 chevaux. A few first-class carriages provided
for the officers bore the marks of a year s campaigning.
At every stop men were out of the trucks to stretch their
legs or to boil water for tea. The short shrill whistle of
the engine or a piercing blast on the guard s cowhorn sent
them scrambling reluctantly back to discomfort. At
Bailleul the Regiment detrained and marched to rest
billets three miles from the town, within ear-shot of the
guns. This short train journey marked a third momen
tous move. It was more thrilling than the last and was
surpassed only by the final great stage the file through
the communication trench into the front line.
10 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The First Canadian Division had been in France
nearly a year and the Second Division a month, while
the Third was not yet formed. Its nucleus, however,
was in the form of corps troops composed of the Princess
Patricia s Canadian Light Infantry, which had been
recently withdrawn from the 27th Imperial Division, the
Royal Canadian Regiment, the 42nd Royal Highlanders
of Canada and the 49th Battalion. The 1st and 2nd
C. M. R. Brigades also became corps troops, and subse
quently with the Canadian Cavalry Brigade (dismounted)
came under command of Brig.-General J. E. B. Seely,
M.P., late Secretary of State for War, and were known
as "Seely s Force. 1
The Transport, which had been sent on several days in
advance of the rest of the unit by way of Southampton
and le Havre, joined at Bailleul, having had an uneventful
and tedious journey.
NOV. 2, On the 2nd of November the Regiment moved to the
east^of Bailleul and went into Aldershot Huts, which were
located a little to the south-west of Neuve Eglise in
Belgium. They were attached to the First Canadian
Division for final lessons on trench warfare, and for a
week the squadrons alternately went into the trenches
south of Messines, looking into the little village of St.
Yves. Each squadron had a forty-eight hour tour.
Memories of the first time ;< in" vary with each indi
vidual; curiosity, attraction or repulsion, fear or indiffer
ence were some of the emotions. On the first tour many
things were stamped strongly on the mind of the recruit;
the long winding communication trenches with their
uncertain "duck-boards," the endless traverses, the
pretty Verey lights, the dug-outs and shelters, the
machine gun emplacements and silent sentries, the whine
of bullets and explosion of shells. Now those vivid
scenes are hazy in the memory; one remembers only
the sunny days, with bright poppies and blue cornflowers
peeping over the parados, while the mud and filth are
forgotten.
After returning to Bailleul for a few days rest, which
included bath-parades and regimental sports, the Regi-
FRANCE AND THE TRENCHES 11
ment moved on November 22nd to Bulford Camp, and
the Transport to English Farm, half a mile away. On
the following day, Seely s Force relieved the 2nd Brigade
of the First Canadian Division in the trenches at Hill 63,
near Ploegsteert. This relief marked the first time the
Regiment had assumed responsibility for the defence of a
part of the British line in Flanders. The men spent four
days in the front line and four in Divisional Reserve. The
Unit moved back on December 9th to Corps Reserve,
immediately east of the much-used town of Bailleul,
where it remained until the end of the month.
With this tour the Regiment began to experience its
first serious casualties. On December 1st, while in the
forward area a shell burst over "A" squadron billets
killing Private W. I. Fulford and wounding five men.
L.-Corporal H. B. Hodge died of wounds and was buried
at St. Omer. He had been acting as Chaplain to the
Regiment and was one of fourteen clergymen who served
in the ranks of the 4th C. M. R. The Regiment had just
taken over the front line when Private R. J. Craig was
killed by a bomb while on duty in a listening-post in a
forward sap.
On December 3rd a patrol discovered a German
working party on the Wulverghem-Messines Road beyond
the low ground in the rather wide No-Man s-Land on
this sector. The next day it was discovered that a barrier
had been erected across the road. The weather was un
favourable, it had been raining for several days, visibility
was poor and the artillery was unsuccessful in an attempt
to remove it. Consequently General Seely came into
the lines and asked for volunteers to raid the barrier.
The raiding party was to get prisoners for identification
purposes, if possible; find out the reasons for such a
barrier; make a reconnaissance and return within an
hour. Lieutenant G. W. Rutter, a Sergeant, a Corporal
and ten men of "C Squadron volunteered. The party
started about 10.00 p.m. and were supported by another
party located in front of the trench and also by one in
the trenches under Captain Donald MacKay. The raid
was to take place behind the screen of an artillery bom-
12 4 TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
bardment but unfortunately this drew the enemy s fire
in a counter-bombardment and put the opposing troops
on the alert. Lieutenant Rutter scattered his party,
took one man and crossed the marshy ground to
the barrier, making a complete reconnaissance, although
entirely exposed to the enemy by flares and rockets
which lighted the whole ground. Due to the bombard
ment there were several casualties. Captain MacKay,
Privates B. Tracey and R. Sears were killed and four
men wounded. The killed were buried in the Canadian
Cemetery near Hill 63. Captain W. V. Sifton, who was at
that time on the Brigade Staff was also seriously wounded
during the bombardment. Lieutenant Rutter was not
long with the Battalion; he miraculously lived through
the terrible bombardment of June 2nd, 1916, but was so
badly wounded that he was permanently disabled and
invalided out of the service.
The first Christmas at the front was passed in rest
billets, the day being only slightly different from other
days. The men made as much as possible of their Christ
mas dinner, comforts from home were distributed and in
the afternoon a football match and other sports bright
ened this great day, the celebration of which seemed so
incongruous.
Dec. 31 On the last day of the year, Lieut. -General E. A. H.
Alderson, C.B., Commander of the Canadian Corps,
spoke to the officers on the re-organization*of the Mounted
Rifles. With the formation, on December 22nd, of the
Third Canadian Division, commanded by Major-General
Malcolm Mercer, C. B., the six regiments of Mounted Rifles
were converted into four battalions of infantry, making
the 1st, 2nd, 4th and 5th Battalions of the 8th Brigade
under Brigadier-General Victor A. S. Williams. The
other two Brigades of the Division were the 7th, composed
of the P. P. C. L. I., the R. C. R., the 42nd and 49th
Battalions, and the 9th Brigade, constituting the 43rd,
52nd, 58th and 60th Battalions. The command of the
new 4th C. M. R. Battalion was given to Lieut. -Colonel
* The C. M. R. Regiment, though dismounted and acting as infantry, had
continued on a cavalry establishment until the reorganization.
Lieutenant-Colonel J. F. H. Ussher
FRANCE AND THE TRENCHES 13
Saftdford F. Smith. In February Lieut. -Colonel Smith
left to take command of the 3rd Divisional Mounted
Troops and was succeeded by Major J. F. H. Ussher,
who was gazetted Lieut.-Colonel a few weeks later.
The month of January, 1916, was spent in learning Jan.
infantry drill under instructors from the 7th Brigade. A
visit by H. R. H. the Prince of Wales on the 27th enliv
ened this irksome month of drilling. In his shy and
unassuming manner he was always enquiring of the com
manding officers if there was anything that he could do
" unofficially" for them.
On February 1st, the 8th Brigade relieved the 3rd
Brigade in trenches which lay parallel to and south of
the Wulverghem-Messines road. After three weeks spent
in rebuilding, revetting and draining trenches in one of
the most disagreeable months the men " came out " to rest-
billets where they remained until March 18th and then
moved north to a large encampment of army huts known
as 6 B : Camp, three miles to the east of Poperinghe
and equidistant from the arc of the Ypres Salient. The
transport lines were in an open field half a mile to the
west.
On March 19th, the Regiment took over trenches in Mar. 19,
front of Zillebeke. Throughout the army they were old
and known as most unpleasant habitations, and bore
the scars of many assaults in the efforts of the Germans to
reach Ypres. The very name of the Salient was a night
mare to every man who knew it. Going in, the 9th East
Surrey Regiment was relieved in Zillebeke-Bund, where
safe dug-outs existed in the heavy earthworks which
formed the westerly shore on Lake Zillebeke and the 8th
Queens were relieved in Sanctuary Wood on the night of
March 20th. The weather was cold and raw; it had
been snowing. Added to these unpleasant conditions were
the discomforts of the sodden trenches. Everyone lived
a rodent life ; in the daytime, nothing stirred but at night
the Salient was a hive of moving troops and transports,
entering in small groups to relieve and ration the men in
the front line. Machine guns raked the roads, shells of
all descriptions enfiladed this strategic death-trap, high
14 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
explosives crashed on the pave or fell in the town of
Ypres. The night was made more unreal by the flares
and Verey lights which seemed to surround the mysteri
ous darkness. During the days in the front line, the
men s lives were menaced by bombs and grenades.
Dodging minnenwerfers and repairing their damage occu
pied many hours on duty.
After four days, in which four men were killed and five
wounded, the Battalion was relieved by the 5th C. M. R.,
and moved to "Belgian Chateau" in Brigade Reserve,
where they remained until the 28th, returning and doing
another tour both in the front line and Brigade Reserve,
April 6, until April 6th, when they went back to B ; Camp.
After a week of rest in Divisional Reserve the Battalion
took over from the 52nd Battalion in the right sub-sector
of the same area. The next three weeks were equally
divided between the front line, local support and Divi
sional Reserve.
The Brigades of the Third Division were shifted to
different parts of this Sector, probably to familiarize
May 4, them with the area, consequently on May 7th the 4th
1916 C. M. R. went into new trenches, the most northerly
they had yet occupied. They were again in front of
Zillebeke and in Sanctuary Wood, but looking up toward
Stirling Castle. On their left was the " Gap " and "Appen
dix" and the village of Hooge and the Ypres-Menin Road,
dividing the Third Canadian Division from the Guards Div
ision. The water-logged soil did not permit of deep dug
outs in this low undulating country. The trenches were
built up above the surrounding ground and even then in
many places the men crouched in water up to their knees.
The weather was cold and wet and except for the wel
come braziers, improvised from oil-drums, life would
have been unbearable. Toward the end of the month
the temperature suddenly became warmer, and the men,
instead of being chilled to the marrow and grovelling in
slime, were now sweltering in the brilliant sunshine. The
weather probably more than any other thing, affected the
spirits and outlook of the men; good weather enormously
diminished their discomforts, though floods of sunshine
FRANCE AND THE TRENCHES 15
did not extinguish their irresistible tendency and privi
lege to "grouse" at the elements.
For no apparent reason in the early hours of the
morning of the llth, the enemy bombarded the front
line, support and communication trenches. It had the
semblance of an impending attack but it dwindled into a
sporadic "strafe." Two men from ; A" and B
Companies and three men from : C Company were
killed. Such a concentrated shelling was unusual at this
time, except as a form of retaliation. The enemy seemed
to be expending his ammunition registering on trenches
and batteries and was not silenced when our guns raised
their voices in protest to the unequal weight of ordnance.
On May 16th the Battalion left the protective foliage May 16,
of Sanctuary Wood. The leaves had come out again 1916
shading the men from the strong May sun and from the
thunder showers, but happiest of all, hiding them from
the man high up over the ridge, in his linen-white captive
balloon. The relief was accomplished during the night
without casualties, an unusually fortunate relief. On
nearing Ypres the trenches were left and the
paths by the sides of the open roads taken to the town.
Hellfire Corner and Shrapnel Corner were particularly
unpleasant cross-roads. The Lille Gate and Menin Gate
were equally unsafe. It was not until the hollow, haunted
town of Ypres, with its crumbled masonry of St. Pierre
and St. Martin and the battered remains of the scarred
tracery of the Cloth Hall were left behind, that the men
felt the temporary relief from the dangers of the Salient.
For two weeks the Battalion remained in Divisional
Reserve and enjoyed the bright sunlight. They had
drill and bath parades and prepared themselves for their
next move. Little did they know for what they were
preparing.
CHAPTER III
SANCTUARY WOOD
May A BRIEF explanation of the situation on the "Western
Front may help to explain the reason for the
unprecedented bombardment and assault which
almost annihilated the Battalion on its next
tour in the front line. The great theatre of
activity was at Verdun, where the tenacious, gallant
French were holding back insistent masses of Germans.
To relieve the pressure on our sorely tried Ally, the
British Higher Command began preparations for an
offensive, which developed into the famous Battles of
the Somme. The British took over more line; the
newly formed British Fourth Army relieving many
French troops from the Arras sector for the support
of Le Mort Homme. The enemy had two large con
centrations of reserves, one at Verdun and the other
in the north. With the latter he launched another
battle for Ypres on June 2nd, 1916. Whether or not the
Germans intended to make a further effort to reach the
Channel or merely to engage in a counter-offensive to
employ the British, was not then known. From inform
ation subsequently received the operation was not
believed to be part of the general plans of the German
Higher Command but rather the ambitious scheme of a
Corps Commander anxious to regain favourable distinc
tion.
May 31, The Battalion had finished one of its longest rests in
1916 Divisional Reserve. On May 31st it paraded after the
evening meal in full marching order with gas-masks and
iron rations. For the first time the men were taken to
Ypres on a well-oiled train, showing no lights and making
little noise. They detrained outside Ypres and recog
nized again its unwholesome odours; after reaching
16
SANCTUARY WOOD 17
Shrapnel Corner they turned east, past Railway Dug-
Outs to Transport Farm south of Zillebeke. Here the
guides of the 52nd Battalion appeared and led each com
pany into the trenches. The night was quiet, except for
an occasional flash of the guns; and dark but for the
encircling flares which exposed the grizzled terrain or
silhouetted a deserted ruin. "A" Company relieved
the right Company, "D" Company the centre and "C
Company the left Company of the 52nd Battalion. B ;
Company was in local support at Ypres near the Lille
Gate.
The line taken over that night, was in an old and
familiar district. In the latter part of March the Bat
talion held the trenches which were now on their immed
iate left. They found themselves skirting the south
easterly edge of Armagh Wood and holding that strategic
elevation, Mount Sorrel. On their right, separated by a
gap in front of Hill 60, was the 2nd Brigade of the First
Division and on their left the 1st C. M. R. Battalion
straddled Observatory Ridge and at the depression near
the southerly end of Sanctuary Wood came in touch with
the P. P. C. L. I. of the 7th Brigade; the other battalion
in the front line of this Brigade was the R. C. R., whose
line was separated from the P. P. C. L. I. by the "Gap"
at the "Appendix" and ran north across the Menin road
through Hooge to join the 60th Imperial Division. Of
the rest of the 8th Brigade the 5th C. M. R., were in
support in Maple Copse and Railway Dug-Outs at
Zillebeke-Bund and the 2nd C. M. R. in Brigade Reserve.
The 9th Brigade remained in Divisional Reserve.
Daylight on June 1st disclosed clean and dry trenches June i,
which afforded the best cover and most comfort of any
heretofore occupied. There were good fire-bays and
many elephant-shelters with gas curtains protecting the
spirit, if not the flesh. It was an unusually beautiful,
clear, early-summer day and except for some definite
shelling on Sanctuary Wood and the appearance of
several captive-balloons, there was nothing to foreshadow
an impending blow.
Lieut-General Sir Julian Byng, K.C.B., M.V.O., had
18 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
j us t taken over from General Alderson the command of
the Canadian Corps. The large concentration of enemy
troops, the amount of artillery which had been "register
ing" on vulnerable points for days past and the activity
of the Germans in building new trenches and saps were
menacing, and had been worrying the Staff for some time.
Visibility had been poor. Heavy mists had covered the
industrious enemy for several days. Preparation against
possible attack had been made, new trenches and machine
gun emplacements had been vigorously pushed forward;
but despite an increasing vigilance no definite indications
appeared as to the exact point of attack, or when it
would be launched.
June 2, On June 2nd, which at sunrise promised to be as other
days, everyone was about early preparing for a visit from
the Divisional Commander, Major-General Mercer.
About 6 o clock, Lieut. -Colonel Ussher went around the
front line, making a preparatory inspection and had
returned down the communication trench to Battalion
Headquarters to meet General Mercer and his A.D.C.
Captain L. E. Gooderham, who were accompanied by
Brigadier-General Williams, and the Brigade Orderly
Officer, Captain Fraser. All left Brigade Headquarters
shortly after dawn and arrived at Battalion Headquarters
about 8 o clock. Lieut.-Colonel Ussher met them there
and escorted them at once towards the front line. It
was a calm, beautiful and noticeably quiet morning.
Suddenly, without warning, from a heavenly, peaceful
sky broke a deafening detonation and cloud of steel
which had no precedent for weight and violence. Every
conceivable type of gun, howitzer and trench-mortar
around Ypres poured everything it had upon the Third
Divisional front. The most extravagant imagination
cannot picture such a downpour of destruction. Even
those who had tasted the bitterest in modern warfare
were staggered by the violence of this onslaught.
Nothing like it had been experienced heretofore and it is
doubtful if its fierceness was exceeded by any later bom
bardment. It continued in fullest intensity for four-
and-a-half hours. The greatest concentration was direc-
SANCTUARY WOOD 19
ted against the 8th Brigade, but even the trenches which J une
were shelled the least became mere jagged scars, unfit for
defence. That anyone lived through it is a miracle.
Trenches were soon demolished, shelters caved in, the
ground over which tall weeds and long grass had grown
was ploughed, beaten and pock-marked by shells.
Sanctuary Wood, Armagh Wood and Maple Copse which
a few hours before were verdant woods were transformed
into charred, jagged stumps.
At 1 o clock the bombardment ceased, but only as a
signal for the preparation of further violence. The
ground quivered and gently heaved and then came the
volcanic roar of a mine. It hurled into the air a large part
of the front line and its defenders. Sandbags, wire,
machine guns, bits of corrugated iron and bits of men
were slung skyward. After this final eruption all was
quiet, even our own guns. Immediately the German
infantrymen appeared in full equipment, with long spades
slung over their backs. They advanced in large numbers
with an air of assurance and confidence that all resistance
had been removed by their artillery.
As soon as the bombardment commenced, all realized
that this was an affair of prime importance. The men
manned the fire-bays until blown out or buried under the
debris; some searched for cover to save their lives for the
attack they knew would follow. A few went to the
Tunnel," only to be buried or taken prisoner in the
defenceless trap. A very few survived to tell what
happened on that terrible morning.*
Space will not permit of a detailed account of what
happened to those who survived or perished, nor can the
many acts of individual heroism and self-sacrifice be
narrated in this short historical outline. Of the tactics
and changing dispositions of the various units of the
Division in its defence of this sacred ground, much has
been written. For the 4th C. M. R. it was a day of
obliteration. Only three officers out of twenty-two came
"Lieutenant J. Harvey Douglas, who was injured by a flying missile when
the mine went up and later badly wounded, subsequently falling into the hands
ofithe enemy, has vividly described his own experiences in his interesting
book "Captured."
20 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
back from the trenches. Seventy-three men out of 680
answered to their names on June 4th. General Mercer s
body was afterwards found in Armagh Wood and buried
at Poperinghe. Brig.-General Victor Williams, who was
very seriously wounded, and Lieut. -Colonel Ussher were
trapped in the "Tunnel" and fell into the enemy s hands.
The 1st C. M. R. on the left had an equally bad time
and their casualties were almost as heavy. The 5th
C. M. R. which so nobly supported the Brigade in Maple
Copse, was also cut up. Both of these Battalions lost
their commanding officers. Lieut.-Colonel A. E. Shaw
of the 1st C. M. R., and Lieut.-Colonel G. H. Baker of
the 5th C. M. R. fell in action.
The Germans penetrated the front line and some of
the support trenches of the Brigade, but considering
their preparatory bombardment and weight of numbers,
their advance was small when one remembers that they
had seven hours of daylight in which to fight.
Major-General L. J. Lipsett, C.M.G., after succeeding
General Mercer in command of the Third Division,
wrote to the 8th Brigade in very complimentary
words: Though on the 2nd June the Division was
unfortunate enough to lose some of its Front Line
Trenches I think the Battalions which held them and
checked the German advance immediately behind
fought in a way that Canada has every reason to
be proud. The Army Commander in his address
testified to this, and I think it well that the facts
of the case should be thoroughly realized. The
1st and 4th C. M. R. Battalions had the brunt of the
bombardment and an analysis of their losses speaks for
itself."
During the following day, survivors of the battalion
acted as guides and carrying parties to the front line.
June 4, They went back on June 4th to Divisional Reserve at
"B" Camp, which they had left but a few days. This
handful of weary, grimy, unshaven men was all that
remained of a healthy, vivacious force which had departed
but a short time before for what was expected would
be a normal tour in the line. Seven lorry loads trans-
Lieutenant-Colonel H. D. Loc^hart Gordon, D.S.O.
SANCTUARY WOOD 21
ported all that was left of that picked body of men, who
left Valcartier a year before full of hope and splendid
virility, fretting under the restraint which kept them back,
fearing they would be too late.
An interesting sequel to this terrible battle was the
number of men of the Battalion who were wounded and
taken prisoners and subsequently escaped from German
prison camps. Nineteen are known to have gained their
liberty; many of them had not recovered fully from
wounds and physical disabilities when they made attempts
to obtain their freedom. Several tried more than three
times to get away and although severely punished when
recaptured they were not discouraged or their determin
ation subdued by the brutal chastisement meted out to
them. They went through the most thrilling experiences,
suffering great physical hardships, travelling by night
through unknown and closely guarded country, until they
reached Holland. By a curious coincidence six men of
the Battalion who fell into the hands of the enemy
escaped within a month of one another and met in
London in the autumn of 1917.*
Hardly had the battalion settled in its new billets at
the little village of Steenvoorde when the mysterious
army-machine began to move. The empty ranks were
at once refilled. Reinforcements commenced to arrive
before the dead were buried. Lieut.-Colonel H. D. Lock-
hart Gordon, who had been attached to the Third Can
adian Division, returned on the 7th and was appointed j une 7
Commanding Officer. He found his battalion, with 1915
which he had shared all the trials and tribulations of
training and which he had known so well, to be but the
size of a platoon. Under his command a new organiz
ation was born. Captain W. R. Patterson, who had
been attached to the 8th Brigade Headquarters, was
recalled to become Second-in-Command. By the 9th,
Corporal F. McMullen and Private J. Evans of the 4th C. M. R., in
their book " Out of the Jaws of Hunland, " have written an interesting account of
their life in Germany and of their several attempts and subsequent escape. They
have described also their experiences in the battle on June 2nd, 1916. The other
four were, Private J. Hocking, Private F. W. Boyd, Private R. Howitt, Private
W. L. Masters.
22 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
five hundred and sixty-three reinforcements had arrived.
They were soon followed by smaller drafts, which brought
the battalion up to strength. A week later ten officers
reported and in a few days twelve more arrived, wondering
where they were and where they should go. Several men
from the ranks were granted commissions, which helped
to swell the already full quota of officers.
The new members of the Battalion soon found them
selves doing infantry drill. Sergeants from the Grenadier
and Coldstream Guards were posted to the Regiment as
instructors. These splendid soldiers were admired but
not welcome. Many of the freshly joined officers and
men had been doing such drill in England for months
and had expected that once in France they would merely
practise what they had learned. The disappointment was
only temporary. Soon the Battalion was rounded again
into a fighting machine and after being thoroughly in
spected by the Army Commander, General Sir Herbert
Plumer, G.C.M.G., by the Corps and Divisional Com
manders and also by Brigadier-General J. H. Elmsley,
D.S.O., who had succeeded Brigadier-General Williams,
the Battalion went in parties by bus to Ypres, where it lived
in the Cavalry Barracks, went into the front line for a few
days instructional work, and supplied large working-parties
for the 7th Brigade. For many men of the new Battalion
those days will be remembered as their first experience
under fire. The working parties w r ould leave at dusk,
laboriously tramp over the uneven duck-boards up the
long communication trenches in unknown directions, do
their task, and be back before daylight.
July The Battalion had been sending parties in turn to
Ypres and to work in the line but after another round of
inspection the whole Battalion moved by route march on
July 13th to Camp St. Lawrence and the following day
went to Ypres Asylum and thence to the Cavalry Barracks
and other billets in Ypres. These consisted of reinforced
cellars and improved shelters in the mediaeval ramparts
which encircled the city. Few buildings were standing,
and none had been left untouched; their pointed gable-
ends still supported by the open fire-places and chimneys
SANCTUARY WOOD 23
marked the skeletons of former homes and shops of this. J uly
1916
ancient town.
For several nights large working parties of 500 men or
more went to the trenches. One of these parties with
Lieut. R. Innes-Taylor in charge was digging a fresh sap
in "No-Man s-Land under the direction of a C.E.
officer when a flare dropped with parabolic grace behind,
outlining the men sufficiently for the Germans to dis
tinguish the party against the inky blackness. Bombs
and rifle grenades heralded their discovery and before
they could get to cover one man was killed and two
wounded.
On July 23rd the new Battalion for the first time took July 23,
over part of the front line, relieving the 5th C. M. R. in
Sanctuary Wood on the old battle line of June 2nd. The
tenancy of the Germans had been short. They had
moved their guns forward preparatory to exploiting their
temporary success but were driven out by the counter
attacks of the First Division and after two weeks of
the most bitter fighting in mud and rain the Canadians
were again in possession of their old front line.
The Irish Guards who entered this sector on June 18th,
1916, occupied the recaptured trenches from the Menin
Road south into the north end of Sanctuary Wood. Mr.
Rudyard Kipling describes,* ; their right line for nearly
half a mile, was absolutely unrecognizable save in a few
isolated spots. The shredded ground was full of buried
iron and timber which made digging difficult, and, in
spite of a lot of cleaning up by predecessors, dead Can
adians lay in every corner. It ran through what had
been a wood and was now a dreary collection of charred and
splintered stakes, to the top of which, blown there by
shells, hung tatters of khaki uniform and equipment.
There was no trace of any communication trenches. 3
To the 4th C. M. R. this shattered wood was indeed a
sanctuary.
In the early hours of the 24th the enemy threw several
rifle grenades into one of the saps, killing Lieut. F. P. H.
Layton and one man and wounding severely Lieut. C. K.
*In his book, The Irish Guards in the Great War.
24 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Hoag, D.C.M. The enemy was very active during the
whole of this time. His artillery was not idle and his
snipers were most alert. One of them on the 26th killed
Lieut. A. H. Bostock who had been with the Battalion
only a month. The day before a German sniper had been
accounted for while pulling rations into a tree to which he
was tied and from which he hung until cut down in the
night.
July 27, The Battalion was relieved on the 27th and arrived
back at Steenvoorde on the 31st. The first week of
August was spent in drilling and route-marches. In their
spare time the men with characteristic cleanliness washed
their clothes and took the opportunity to attack the ever
present vermin which so often got the upper hand in the
trenches. By the 8th the Battalion had finished its share
of rest billets and moved again for the trenches. This
time it went to a more southerly sector of the salient.
After relieving the 14th Battalion at "Swan Chateau" it
provided working parties for a week and then moved into
the front line. The Battalion frontage ran six hundred
yards north-east from the Ypres-Comines canal a part
known as "The Bluff. This was an exceptionally inter
esting tour, partly because of the enemy s artillery but
chiefly because of the industry of the men in wiring
craters, building dug-outs and digging trenches. The
warm mid-summer sun cheered the men in their task of
burrowing. Those days would have been pleasant days
if the enemy s guns had been silent but their activity
caused daily losses. They continued to take their toll
and on the 19th the Battalion lost four men killed and
two wounded.
There had been indications that the enemy was tunnel
ling under the front line and listening posts were made to
try and detect the ominous sounds of distant tappings
which meant that men were picking their way gradually
under " No-Man s-Land. : So long as the gentle noise
continued the men were happy and they found great
interest in the daily reports that came from the posts.
All doubts as to the enemy s intentions were removed
one day when a large area caved in behind the front line,
SANCTUARY WOOD 25
revealing the location of a tunnel and checking his
mining operations. There were several very large mine-
craters in this sector; the Battalion held the lip of an
enormous irregular crater which measured over five hun
dred feet across at its widest part and was over one hun
dred feet deep.
On the night of the 22nd the Battalion was relieved. Aug. 23,
They left the bone-dry trenches which could change so
rapidly with the weather and which offered such a con
trast in the winter. By comparison July and August
were not unpleasant, the soil was workable, the dugouts
were dry and when the day s "fatigue" was over, or the
period of vigilance completed, such men as were not
detailed for duty would sit in the trenches and follow the
course of an aeroplane soaring in the sky by the fleecy-
white bursts of smoke, which gleamed against the deep-blue
heavens. In these long evenings the birdmen and the
skylarks in their lonely altitude were the only living
things above the ground. Such dry warm days passed
more quickly than the cold wet ones of winter and spring.
Nevertheless the men were delighted to be relieved.
They cheerfully glued themselves to the sides of the
trenches to allow the incoming heavily-laden troops more
freedom to pass.
This tour was the last the Battalion had in the Salient
for many months. It returned in 1918 to Passchendaele
but not to the old Salient it knew so well. It was with
little regret that the Battalion left this pestilential ^crescent.
The enemy threw a few shells into the departing troops,
a little souvenir, an unnecessary reminder of this horrible
charnel-house.
CHAPTER IV
THE SOMME
Sept. "IT F the Germans, by their activity around Ypres, intend
ed to check the preparations of the British Army for
the impending offensive on the Somme, they were un
successful. The general plan of the Allies was to at
tack simultaneously on all fronts and thus pin down
the enemy, preventing him from moving his troops from one
theatre to another. It also was intended to relieve the
pressure at Verdun and gradually wear down the resistance
of the Central Powers. While the struggle was called the
Battles of the Somme, it was for the British the battle of
the Ancre. The river Somme subsequently divided the
British and French ; the advance by both armies ran par
allel to the river. The first objectives of the left flank
of the British were along the eastern bank of the river
Ancre which proved almost impregnable.
Enormous preparations had been made. A Reserve Army
under General Gough had been formed especially for
this offensive. Every Division in the Army was to take in
turn its share in the assaults. As a result of the great
activity of the Ministry of Munitions, guns and shells
had been pouring into the country for months. A pre
paratory bombardment of unheard of proportions was
planned. Instead of the usual intensive shelling on a
small front for a few hours this final word in modern
warfare was to be a concentration on a large front for
a fortnight. In the first bombardment the individual
booming of gun or howitzer was lost in the endless roar
of innumerable pieces of all calibre. It was like a con
tinuous peal of thunder. At night thousands of over
lapping flashes illuminated the sky for miles. The many
coloured rockets which flared into this blazing firmament
lingered at the peak of their flight to signal a garrison s

distress or mark the positions of advancing troops. _
The Germans, in anticipation of an attack in force, had
made their positions remarkably strong. Every wood
and village was converted into a strong-point, garrisoned
and rationed with food and ammunition to withstand
the most formidable assault. The nature of the ground
aided enormously in their defence along the Ancre and
they were fortunate also when rain came and mired our
armies when they were on the point of breaking through.
After the great preparatory bombardment the offensive
was launched on July 1st in conjunction with the French.
The attack developed in stages, the first resulted in the
capture of the German first line of defences in the southern
sector which included the villages of Fricourt, Mametz,
Montauban and Contalmaison but in the northern sector
we had practically no success. There was a slight lull
for further preparations until July 14th when another
big assault was launched increasing the indentation in the
southern sector and extending our line to Delville Wood.
On July 18th a third stage marked the capture of Guille-
mont, Ginchy, Delville Wood and Pozieres. The salient
was pushed yet farther but the northern sector was hardly
penetrated. The enemy still held Thiepval which
seemed invulnerable. It had a strategic position on
high ground overlooking the low valley of the Ancre,
and was not reduced until October. Nevertheless, its
flank was being turned slowly but surely and when the
next big push came it was almost surrounded.
The Canadian Corps entered this colossal struggle on Sept. 4,
September 4th relieving the Australians, who, in brilliant
fashion two weeks previously, had taken Pozieres, on
the Albert-Bapaume Road. While there was contin
uous fighting to straighten the line and consolidate it,
these were minor actions in preparation for the next
great stage which commenced in the middle of Sep
tember. This was another move along the whole front
to threaten further the German flanks and to turn the
strong positions at Thiepval. The Canadian Divisions
went to the Somme in turn, keeping up a vigorous
offensive and joining on September 15th in the general
28 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
advance on the next objectives. They took Courcelette,
while the Guards took Flers and other Divisions captured
High Wood and Martinpuich. For the first time the
mysterious "Tanks" of the Machine Gun Corps, Heavy
Section, went into action. These successes were followed
ten days later by another advance when the French took
Combles, while Morval, Gueudecourt and Lesboeufs fell to
the British.
This great battle had been raging two months when the
Battalion went into rest billets near Steenvoorde and
commenced training for the Somme. Although the
Battalion had been reorganized only three months and
was practically a new unit it only had a week of prepar
ation for the new offensive. Imaginary trenches were
taped out on the ground and attacked in the new "wave 3
formation introduced and already used by the French.
They would assault these fictitious defences behind an
illusionary "creeping" barrage and go through all the
motions of the latest form of attack. They did route-
marches and had musketry and bayonet practice. It
was a busy week in a quiet, verdant country side.
vn* O* 1 the 7th September the Battalion started on its
journey to the Somme. It moved partly by motor-bus
and partly on foot to Cassel where it entrained at 6 o clock
that night; a pleasant change to be again on a train
although tlje great discomfort of a night s journey
did not justify any great enthusiasm. The men knew
approximately their destination but the mystery as to
their exact movements added spice to the journey. That
night they travelled fast and far, for a troop-train;
dawn found them many miles south, in Picardy. They
detrained at 5.30 in the morning at Candas and marched
west through a beautiful, cultivated country to Franque-
ville. They rested a day and a half in this little hamlet
which nestled beside a well kept wood far away from the
ruined zone and were billeted in the farm buildings which
were grouped along the road to Domart. They enjoyed
seeing again the children in their black smocks, the
zinc-covered bar in the estaminet, the picturesque Town
Crier, and the Picardy farms with their manured quad-
THE SOMME 29
rangles and community centres so typical of billets in
the back area. On the 10th, which was an ideal summer
morning, they trekked east again across charming,
untravelled roads, past green woods and fenceless fields
of stubble and tall lucerne still damp with dew. They
were bound for Vert-Galand Farm on the Doullens-
Amiens road. Half-way there they received orders to
billet at Montrelet. The men found themselves in the
next village to Candas and wondered if they had been
lost and travelling in circles. They did not realize,
perhaps, that they were only one of hundreds of battalions
which were kept moving all through this area on the
way to the Somme. On the morning of the llth motor
buses lined the village road and conveyed the Battalion
thirty miles to Albert. The dusty convoy rolled over
the flint and chalk roads, through little villages with
their steepled churches, public ponds and humble school
houses, past farms and hutments crowded with troops
and out again along the high road with its rows of tall,
trimmed poplars. By noon they were entering Albert
through the congested hive behind the battle fields. The
Battalion de-bused outside Albert and moved by platoons
to the brick-fields at the north of the town.
Coming from the Salient, where nothing moved on the
surface, to this comparatively open warfare was at first
incomprehensible to the men. They never dreamed of
such a contrast. All had tried to visualize this great
battle-ground to which they knew it would probably be
their fate to go. It was what they felt, rather than
what they saw that impressed them most; the freedom,
the unguarded movements, the disregard for protection.
They were stunned by the vastness of the operations;
tracks led everywhere across the country, processions of
endless traffic moved in all directions, horse-lines covered
every flat piece of land, canvas troughs watered thousands
of animals, hosts of tents were pitched on the open hill
sides. Guns were everywhere, some crudely camouflaged,
others without any cover; large naval guns mounted on
railway trucks fired regularly from the valleys rocking
the whole country-side. Ammunition dumps which
30 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
?g?6 covere d acres were depleted and replenished with only
an occasional hindrance. One enormous dump near
Fricourt "went up" for days but was a mere incident in
the turmoil and noise. Innumerable troops billeted
themselves in tents, lean-to s and old German dugouts.
Noisy, high-spirited battalions laden with rations, am
munition, sand bags, and gas masks were passed by
unshaven, tired and worn companies silently coming out.
The brick-fields were congested with bell-tents and
transport lines. An occasional shell would frighten a
horse from the picket line and start him careering through
the tented area followed by an irate groom and cursed
by the inmates of the tents. Most of the men of the
Battalion did not have a chance to get initiated into this
new life because of the sudden orders which reached
Sept. 11, them on their arrival. They were told that they had to
go into the line that night. This came as a surprise to the
officers who had not had an opportunity to orient them
selves or make any kind of reconnaissance. By 6.30 p.m.
the Battalion less a reserve of Officers, N.C.O. s and
details was on the move along the main Albert-
Bapaume road through la Boisselle to Pozieres to relieve
the 5th Battalion. The men saw for the first time
on either side of this congested road the devastation
of the Somme battlefields. Not a tree was standing, la
Boisselle was a heap of rubble and the remains of its
buildings had been used to fill the shell holes in the road.
Shell cases were strewn along the roadside or marked old
battery positions. Tangled wire and mutilated trenches
covered the barren waste as far as one could see. From
the high ground beyond Albert the gilded Virgin could
be seen hanging at a perilous angle over the ruined Cam
panile of the Eglise Notre-Dame de Brebieres. She
seemed to be clinging to her tower that the folk-prophecy
of victory might be fulfilled. Columns of dust could be
seen rising from the town when a shell found its mark in
the clay-plaster and brick of the ruins.
It was dark when the Battalion left Pozieres. The
relief was difficult and unpleasant, the guides getting
lost in the maze of trenches in the darkness. During
THE SOMME 31
the relief the Germans bombarded with gas-shells causing
a number of casualties. Lieutenant J. U. Garrow was
gassed and subsequently died. Captain A. S. Hamil
ton* finding his men overcome in a gas-saturated trench
jumped into it, with utter disregard for his own life, and
dragged them to safety. Although so badly gassed that
his health was permanently injured, he refused to leave
the line and it was not known until later that he carried
on throughout this and a subsequent action in great
personal distress. For this devotion to duty he was
recommended for the Military Cross.
Two days were spent in trenches which ran east from
Mouquet Farm, 2,000 yards to the north of Pozieres.
Here "T" saps were constructed as jumping-off points
for the 5th C. M. R. which relieved the 4th on the night
of the 13th-14th attacking from these positions on the
15th.
The general attack which was launched all along the Sept. is,
line on September 15th was preceded by a heavy bom
bardment for several days. The tanks, then new mys
terious machines of war, were used for the first time.
Rumours of their existence had filtered through the army
but the knowledge of their whereabouts and appearance
was obscure. These lumbering caterpillars made their
debut before the masses of troops on this eventful morning.
The previous night some of the Battalion saw them
crawling into position. They were spinning out white
direction tapes under the command of an officer who
walked ahead semaphoring with his arms to the operator
inside. At that time there were two kinds of Tanks,
the female with her trailer being more awkward than
the male. Five Divisions of Cavalry were concentrated
behind the lines to seize any opportunity of a break
through. Great things were expected. It was a red-
letter day in the Somme offensive.
The 1st and 5th C. M. R. battalions of the 8th Brigade
took part in the attack in the early morning and success
fully reached their objectives. The 1st C. M. R. was

32 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
?9ie on ^ e ex t reme left of the Canadian Corps in front of
Mouquet Farm. The 2nd Division had pushed well up
to Courcelette while on its right the Fourth Army attack
had also gone well. By 8 a.m. it was apparent that the
enemy had been thoroughly shaken and the Corps Com
mander decided to push home his advantage, ordering
up the 7th Brigade and also the 4th C. M. R. of the 8th
Brigade. It was a warm, dry autumn day. The enemy s
artillery was quiet but his machine-gunners and snipers
were still fighting. They were in fairly good trenches behind
wire, their targets silhouetted against the afternoon sun.
The Battalion, which was in the chalk-pits, having
come out of the line the night before, suddenly received
orders that it was to take part in the attack which was
planned to start at 5.00 p.m. There was neither time
to issue orders nor, in fact, to consider the plan of attack,
if the jumping off point was to be reached in time for
"zero hour." Colonel Gordon sent the Battalion forward
whilst he galloped to Headquarters to discuss the plan
of action with the Brigadier and Major Moore Cosgrave,
the artillery officer. It was decided that as the 4th
C. M. R. was to be the pivot it should start half an hour
after the main attack and a special barrage was immedi
ately worked out to protect them. Orders were then
written and sent after the Battalion. This change in
plan subsequently proved to be the salvation of B :
Company as otherwise they would have reached their
objective before the troops on their right and would have
walked into the barrage which was laid down as soon as
the attack started and which caught "C Company.
The Battalion was ordered to assemble in a trench two
hundred yards in advance of the line held on the llth
and to attack at 5.30 p.m. in a northerly direction advanc
ing in two waves on a three hundred yard frontage.
The first wave was to capture a trench two hundred and
seventy-five yards in front of the jumping-off point and
the second wave to go through the first and occupy a
part of Fabeck Graben trench, one hundred yards in
advance of the first objective, keeping in touch with the
42nd Battalion on the right.
THE SOMME 33
Major W. Coleman, M.C., commanding " B " Company Sept.
was detailed by Colonel Gordon to attack on the left and
Captain Hamilton with "C Company, on the right.
Major Patterson was placed in charge of the operations
with a forward headquarters in the assembly trench.
"B : Company arrived at its "jumping off position
ten minutes in advance of "zero hour. 1 "C" Company
was not so fortunate, the communication trench at
Tom s Cut was blown-in and when Captain Hamilton
attempted to take his men across the open they came
under a withering machine-gun fire which wiped out the
most of two platoons. Captain Hamilton re-organized
his Company, reported back to Battalion Headquarters
that a further advance would be suicidal and received
permission to dribble his men across country by another
route to the assembly trench. Major Patterson not
knowing what had happened to "C :> Company, ordered
"B" Company to attack alone. Major Coleman rose
to the unequal task, swinging his right flank forward until
the men were so close to the barrage that many became
casualties from our own fire. Immediately the barrage
lifted the men charged the enemy and although the wire
had not been completely cut and the Germans from the
direction of Mouquet Farm kept up an enfilade fire, they
attacked with such spirit that they were quickly in
possession of the first objective. The second wave
followed in perfect order passing over the first line and
pushing forward in the face of heavy shelling to the
objective, the Fabeck Graben. They found this trench
full of Germans who at first put up a stubborn resistance
which soon wilted under the determined assault of Major
Coleman s men.
As soon as a footing had been gained in the enemy s
trench the Battalion Bombers worked their way down
either flank. They soon came in contact with the 42nd
Battalion on their right and were able to establish two
blocks in the system on the left. The Germans could
not withstand the relentless pressure of the Bombers under
Lieut. H. E. Moore. Some of them fled down the trench
toward Mouquet Farm and others broke cover and
34 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
scuttled across the open to Zollern Redoubt, five hundred
yards to the north.
Before dark "B" Company was in command of the
situation. It was a remarkable achievement for one
company and much of the credit was due to the splendid
example of leadership set by Major Coleman and Lieut
enant Moore. The force was not strong enough to hold
its gains if the enemy counter-attacked but help was on
the way; Lieutenant Moore, who was wounded after lead
ing his Bombers so bravely, successfully reported the
situation at 11 p.m. to Colonel Gordon who had already
sent "C" Company to help consolidate the newly-won
position. Also, a composite company under Captain
Gale, after considerable difficulty made its way through
the dark and unfamiliar ground laden with water, sand
bags, bombs and ammunition to assist in consolidating
and help "B" Company in case of a counter attack.
Sept. 16, At daylight, contact aeroplanes passed over and the
new positions were signalled to them. During the
morning information was received at Headquarters that
further operations were contemplated but when orders
arrived later in the day it was found that the Battalion
Bombers under Lieutenant Moore had already done all
that was expected. For his tireless, unflinching energy
and splendid example of bravery, Lieutenant Moore was
recommended for the Military Cross, but unfortunately
was killed before he received it.
Rumours of further attacks had filtered through the
trenches, but the Battalion did not move. It was subse
quently learned that the Higher Command had decided
to strike again while the Prussians were disorganized.
At 5 p.m. on the 16th a surprise attack by the 9th and
7th Brigades was opened in an effort to take the Zollern
Redoubt and extend the advantage to Zollern Trench on
the right. This famous redoubt was in front of the 4th
C. M. R. and as the men stood in their trenches under a
gentle rain they saw the troops of the 7th Brigade follow
ing the barrage over the gentle slope toward Zollern
Graben. It was a remarkable privilege to witness
another regiment going forward in perfect formation to
THE SOMME 35
attack. They advanced at a steady walk in extended Se P t
order with bayonets fixed and rifles at the trail, following
under the bursts of high-explosives into the smoke and
din of the bombardment. It was a rare, magnificent
and inspiring sight. A flushed, corpulent Sergeant of
the attacking troops, who had lost direction, bounded
into the trench occupied by the 4th C. M. R. thinking
he had reached his objective. After mopping his brow,
adjusting his "tin" hat and cursing his luck, he rejoined
his comrades.
That evening the Battalion was relieved by the
Lancashire Fusiliers. The Battalion had reason to be
proud of its part in this historic battle for Courcelette.
It was due to their coolness and steadiness that they
were able to march for two hours through heavy fire to
their assembly point and be in a position in less than four
hours after receiving orders. They accomplished in
soldierly fashion their difficult task as pivot troops for
the larger flanking movement. Even after their objec
tive had been reached they carried on the work of con
solidating under heavy rifle and machine gun fire and
were not checked by the trench-mortar bombardment
which assailed them from Mouquet Farm. They com
pleted a long communication trench with the help of a
pioneer battalion and when relief came Colonel Gordon
was able to hand over a finished system of defensible
trenches. Their booty was big; fifty men, including
three officers, were taken prisoner and two machine guns
were captured.
The severity of the struggle was evident from the casual
ties; two officers and thirty-two men killed and four
officers and fifty-two wounded.
The Battalion returned to Albert on the 17th, rested sept. 17,
until the morning of the 19th and then marched back to 1916
Warloy where it was billeted for a day. The men were
in high spirits. Their first adventure on the Somme had
been a great success; they had many mental and
material souvenirs. On the following day they cleaned
and cleared billets, marching back toward the front to
Bouzincourt. They had a week in this little village of
36 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Sept. many and varied smells and were able to visit again that
pleasant oasis, the Expeditionary Force Canteen.
Major-General Lipsett, C.M.G., commanding the Third
Division, addressed the Regiment on September 23rd,
after the successful attack on September 15th. His
remarks were taken down in the field:
What I wish to say is how pleased I am with, the work the Brigade
and especially this Battalion did during the big attack that was
pulled off last week. Both the Corps Commander and Army Com
mander have expressed their great appreciation, and are entirely
satisfied with what you did. The attack that is going on down here
is extended over a large frontage, so that the enemy cannot concentrate
his artillery on any particular point as would be the case if the ad
vance was only on. a small frontage. It was on September loth, that
the Brigade got orders to attack and in the morning the 5th C.M.E.
were ordered to attack and successfully accomplished their task.
Later, the Brigade got orders from Divisional headquarters that we
had to make an attack on a large frontage, taking the German
trenches before they had time to settle down after their morning set
back. The 9th Brigade had to be moved up, they taking up a position
on. the right, the 8th Brigade, which was represented by the 4th
C.M.R. only, were given the left position. We know now how well
they did their work, and how one company practically did the whole
Brigade work. At first we had reports that the "C" Company could
not get into position, and had been nearly cut to pieces by machine
gun fire. Had we known then what the 4th C.M.R. could do we would
not have been so dubious about their success, as shortly afterwards
word came that the Company on the left had gone on and had taken
and cleared all the trenches allotted to the Brigade. Not only did
you take your objective, but successfully bombarded a considerable
way down the enemy s trench to the left and erected some very good
blocks. The remainder of "C" Company arrived later, and the con
solidating work done was wonderful. Later, Colonel Gordon sent up
another Company which took over another part of the old German
Front Line and did some very good work consolidating under heavy
fire. The work of Major Patterson, Major Coleman, Sergeant Layton
and a dozen others, I know deserve special recommendations, and
I only regret that all cannot get decorations; but a soldier should
always remember that he should find his reward for his work in the
fact that he is held in high esteem by his comrades. I am glad that
the 4th C.M.B. have had this opportunity of wiping off an old score-
that of the pounding they got on the 2nd of June. This Brigade
now need have no fear of ever having to take second place to any
Brigade in the whole of the Canadian Contingent.
Sept. 27, On the 27th a hurried move was ordered and the
Regiment marched away at 2.00 p.m. down the same
road to Albert that it had travelled by bus a month
before. The men passed through the outskirts of the
town and the brickfields and up the Bapaume Road to
Tara Hill behind Pozieres, where they had tea and pushed
THE SOMME 37
on through the congested traffic to relieve the 8th and Sept.-
10th Battalions and support the 1st and 2nd C. M. R.,
who occupied the front line. Three days were spent in
carrying up supplies, ammunition, petrol tins of water
and in clearing the battlefields of their dead and debris.
On the last day of the month they commenced to take
over at 7.00 p.m. from the 2nd C. M. R. in the front line
and by 2.00 a.m. the relief was completed. Their tem
porary abode in the support trenches was wet, cold and
costly; ten men were killed and thirty -four wounded.
Practically all of these numerous casualties resulted from
the heavy shelling.
In the early morning of the first day of October, Oct. i,
the Battalion was about a thousand yards in front
of the ground they had captured in the middle of
September. Since that time the troops had been inces
santly hammering the German defences until Zollern
Trench and Hessian Trench had fallen; the next line
of defence was Regina Trench.
The Somme offensive had developed into one of
attrition. One attack was followed closely by another
until bit by bit the razed defences were nibbled from the
enemy. The ridge commanding Thiepval, Grandcourt
and Miraumont had been taken. Regina Trench was
on the reverse slope and formed a defensive flank, which
was gradually being thrust back until Thiepval was
almost surrounded. The Germans fully realizing the
danger of losing Regina Trench made one of the most
outstanding and determined attempts to retain it. It
was difficult for our guns to reach it as it was just over
the crest of the hill. The enemy had the advantage of a
deep ravine and several sunken roads which led into
Regina Trench from the rear and which enabled him
to rush up supplies and provisions to the garrison.
It was densely manned with picked troops. A great
quantity of concertina barbed-wire had been thrown out
to supplement the existing uninviting entanglements.
It was a strong position prepared to resist a strong attack.
The 5th and 8th Brigades were ordered to storm the
bulwarks of this crowning position, and the 4th C. M. .R.
38 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Oct.
1916 with their usual luck were on the left flank and had to
attack on a six hundred yard frontage with two companies
plus one platoon in two waves fifty yards apart. Colonel
Gordon ordered : D" Company under Captain L. F.
Bishop to attack on the right and "A" Company com
manded by Captain B. R. Gale to attack on the left.
One platoon of " C had a small frontage and was detailed
to place a block in Regina Trench on the extreme left of
the Battalion s objective. Major Patterson established a
forward headquarters in Gun Pit Trench behind Hessian
Trench; machine gunners and bombers were detailed to
follow on the flanks of the second wave. "D " Company
assembled in Gun Pit Trench, "A" Company collected
in a trench running north from Hessian Trench and the
platoon of "C" Company had to find the best available
place still nearer Regina Trench. The remainder of
"C" Company were to garrison Hessian Trench and the
communication trench running from it and thereby
form a defensive flank.
Before the attack took place scouts had reported that
the wire was very thick and that it appeared untouched
by the artillery. Only one small gap existed on the left
of "D" Company s frontage. This information was
reported to the Brigade at 7.05 a.m. and explained to
the 6th Artillery Brigade at 7.30 p.m. It was decided
to pound the wire until 10.30 a.m. and then cease fire
for an hour to allow the scouts to examine it again.
Word was received at 9.55 a.m. that it was imperative
for the attack to take place even though all the wire was
not cut. Due to the position of Regina Trench the
Artillery had great difficulty in finding the wire. At
11.30 a.m. when the hammering was finished Captain A.
A. MacKenzie went out with a few scouts in broad day
light and found the wire still a formidable obstacle. " A "
Company was ordered to crawl out and creep around the
first band of entanglements preparatory to the attack
and thus avoid the apparent necessity of finding a way
through it.
i9i lf ^ ne men wa ited i* 1 the drizzling rain for the barrage
to lift. They knew exactly what they were expected to
THE SOMME 39
do and looked forward to the same success that had
accompanied their enterprise of two weeks before. They
itched for the word to go. The unbearable suspense
made the minutes seem hours. The tension was not
relieved until the two-minute barrage lifted and the
attack was launched. "A" Company which had got
into position as intended went forward into a blizzard of
machine gun bullets which checked them in their first
stride. The barrage which was supposed to have been
laid down a hundred yards in front of the enemy s
trench had gone too far and the Germans without
hindrance manned their parapets and wiped out practic
ally the entire Company as it struggled to get through.
Captain MacKenzie and his men were forced to take
refuge in shell holes. The right platoon of the first
wave of "D >! Company also met the heavy wire and
never got through it. However, one officer and the
remainder of the Company, found, as anticipated, the
gap in the entanglements which lay on the left of its
front and between that of "A" Company, and fought
their way into Regina Trench and held it until the last
man of them was killed. The platoon of "C" Company
made an equally disastrous attempt. As soon as the
men left the communication trench they were brought
to their knees. Captain Gale gathered the fragments
of "A" Company and made another attempt to get to
Regina Trench without success. . Part of the second wave
of his Company went to the assistance of "C" Company s
platoon and tried to bomb their way down the communi
cation trench into Regina Trench. Captain MacKenzie
and a few men supported them by sniping from shell
holes. By 5.00 p.m. the attack had developed into a
bombing melee. More grenades were ordered up and
the fusillade continued until the ranks were so diminished
and the men so worn that they were ordered to retire
into the "block" in the communication trench. It was
here that Lieutenant Moore was killed. He fought with
his Bombers all day, advancing and retreating down the
communication trench and at one time obtained a
temporary footing in Regina Trench. Man after man
40 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
?9i6 was Billed beside him but he seemed to bear a charmed
life. As the evening approached the sound of exploding
bombs ceased and it was known that he had shared the
fate of so many of his brave Bombers. This officer was
recommended again for the Military Cross but owing to
the regulations in force it was not possible to make a
posthumous award.
The Germans had been more than prepared for such
an attack. They were heavily reinforced during the
action and would have been even better supported if the
over-reaching barrage had not effectively found those
who were coming up the sunken roads. The enemy
signalled by red and green lights to his gunners who
responded accurately to the detriment of the assault.
The Germans organized a counter-attack with a view to
cutting off the thinned line. About 4.30 p.m. they were
seen to leave their trenches but they were driven back
with telling effect, Captain MacKenzie and his men in
flicting enormous casualties. Finally the enemy made
repeated attempts to dislodge the courageous defenders
from the communication trench but never succeeded. At
6.30 p.m. two platoons of "B : Company were sent to
reinforce the front line and the balance of the company
carried up supplies.
This attack was not successful, but only in that Regina
Trench was not completely captured and held. The
Brigade had upheld the established reputation of the
Canadian Corps as shock-troops. Even had the wire
been cut and the barrage accurately placed on the enemy
trenches it is most doubtful if two companies and one
platoon could have carried out the ambitious programme.
The 5th Brigade and the rest of the 8th Brigade met the
same fate as the 4th C. M. R. This was the first attempt
to subdue Regina Trench. It proved to be no ordinary
line of defence. A week later the 7th and 9th Brigades
profiting by the experiences of the rest of the Division>
also attacked this stronghold, but with similar results.
The 49th Battalion, which relieved the 4th C. M. R.
on the night of 2nd /3rd October, made a gallant
but unsuccessful attempt a few days later to get a foot-
THE SOMME 41
hold in it. The wire and weather were more formidable
antagonists than the enemy. The ground, while not a
sea of mud as it later became, was a foe in itself, and the
entanglements, which were not sufficiently destroyed by
artillery, remained as an inanimate adversary too strong
for the success of any troops, no matter how indomitable.
The Battalion went back to Albert for five days, then
returned and did three days in support trenches, sending Oct. 10,
up working parties at night. One of these parties on
the night of the 10th was met by an Engineer officer and
escorted toward the front line to dig jumping-off trenches
for an attack of the 4th Division. Unfortunately, on
the way up he was badly wounded and his runner killed
by a " crump. " Lieut. A. P. Menzies, who was in
charge of the right party, is mentioned in the Diary as
"showing great courage and devotion to duty under
exceptionally trying circumstances" by leading the party
himself, without a guide, through the dark to the dan
gerous task. It was a typical night s work, a pattern
of hundreds of such nocturnal horrors. At the time it
was serious and tragic, but now through the haze of
pathos can be seen a grimly humorous side which was
not evident then. The work lay in the open under a
brilliant full-moon. It was approached by a shallow
sunken road, running in the wrong direction to give
cover to the party, which became a prey to sniping and
enfilade fire. This road faded into a flat, bankless
track and as the men reached the open they were sniped
and their chances of getting out to their work unscathed
were poor. The men had been told before they started
that they would not be relieved in the line until the work
was completed. If this was a genuine threat, it was quite
unnecessary. The trench was to be dug five feet deep,
but long before the waning moon had disappeared their
linear task was completed and the trench had reached an
incredible depth. The enemy s machine guns had infin
itely more influence on the digging than the orders of a
Divisional Commander.
The next tour in the line made the fifth and last effort
of the 4th C. M. R. in this Gargantuan struggle.
42 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The discipline displayed by the officers and men was
exceptionally good, especially when one remembers that
the Battalion was practically new after the battle of
Sanctuary Wood, and with only a few weeks training
was thrown into the line five times and took part in two
major attacks. Captain R. Innes-Taylor, the Adjutant,
gave invaluable assistance to Colonel Gordon during the
difficult period of reorganization and preparation for the
Somme. The Regiment entered twelve hundred strong
and received some two hundred reinforcements. The
casualties were greater than the average strength of a
battalion; over one thousand men killed, wounded or
missing was the contribution of the 4th C. M. R. to that
great phalanx of British soldiers which marched into the
Battle of the Somme and fell.
Oct. 14, On October 14th, 1916, the Battalion turned its back
for ever on that sector of the front and started on a cir
cuitous route to Vimy. The men marched in easy stages
by Albert and Warloy to Antheux, where they halted for
three days. Anyone who had seen this band of exhausted
troops as they laboured from billet to billet over the flint
and chalk roads, would have recognized them as a depleted
unit from the Somme. A platoon commander had the
significant opportunity of riding his Company Com
mander s horse at the head of his batman, two stretcher-
bearers and one other rank. The unequal platoons bore
sad testimony to the cost of a month s sojourn on the
Somme; and only a portion of the time on a few hundred
yards of that long front.
Oct. 20, On the 20th the Battalion went about fifteen kilometres
north to Barly and the following day resumed its trek
for ten miles north and west to Berlencourt on the River
Canche. It left at 10.00 o clock in the morning and arrived
in billets in time for tea. These hamlets were a marked
change from the ruins and devastation of the Somme.
Berlencourt, a peaceful, straggling little place on the
side of a clear stream in a wooded country, was one of
those pastoral centres maintaining rural activities within
earshot of the heavy guns. On the 22nd the Battalion
completed the last leg of the journey, a fifteen mile route
\ iffrlcoiirt
THE SOMME 43
march to Maroeuil over a slight watershed of rolling
agricultural country, dotted with little villages and old
chateaux with wooded parks, and bearing, still, the
feudal ear-marks of the Royalist regime. Maroeuil lies
about four miles north-west from Arras. It had a more
evident atmosphere of active warfare about it. It was
occasionally shelled but except for the railway station,
a supply train every night and an Engineer s Dump, it
was a comparatively safe place. Billets were scarce and
only one estaminet proprietor braved the dangers of
residence. It was a Divisional Reserve area for the
Vimy front, a quiet contrast to the Somme. The Battal
ion remained two days prior to entering new trenches on
a fresh and dissimilar sector where the Canadian Corps
within six months took part in one of the most brilliant
exploits of the war.
CHAPTER V
VI MY RIDGE
Oct. "T" TIMY RIDGE, one of the key positions in the
1916 \ / defence of the German Western Front, was con
sidered by the enemy to be invulnerable and its
possession imperative. It commanded a large
area to its west and south, and protected the
admirable billeting district around the congested mining
country of Lens. By November, 1916, the Canadian
Corps held that part of the line which ran north
from the outskirts of Arras to a point east of Souchez.
The elaborate trench system traversed a shallow
valley dominated on the east by Vimy Ridge and
by a lesser rise on the west. The westerly elevation
shielded the troops billeted in the back areas along the
River Scarpe. Although separated by a few score miles
from the Somme this region seemed as if in a different
country. It was a quiet front, in fact it had seen only
ordinary trench warfare since 1915 when the French
Zouaves had heavy losses attempting to maintain their
temporary foot-hold on the Ridge. An immense chalk
formation underlay the soil which, in many places, was
so thin as to show chalky outcrops. Fresh trenches were
like bleached strips on the land and naturally were diffi
cult to conceal. The comparative solidity of the chalk,
and the ease of working it, encouraged tunnelling, with the
consequence that the whole front was pock-marked by
mine-craters. Many large dug-outs and caves were
constructed to harbour troops, and some existing sub
terranean passages were enlarged and improved and
played an important part in concentrating troops for the
assault on Vimy Ridge. One of the largest tunnels, of
mediaeval or ancient origin, was over seven hundred yards
in length and twenty-five feet in height, and had all the
44
VIMY RIDGE 45
conveniences that modern engineering could provide;
electric light, water-supply, light-railway, dressing-sta
tions and telephonic communications.
On October 24th the 4th C. M. R. relieved a London
Regiment of one of the newest Imperial Divisions in front
of Ecurie, which was almost on the extreme right of the
Corps Front and adjacent to that maze of interlocking
trenches and old craters known to the French as "The
Labyrinth" and which ranked in their early war-annals
with our "Bird Cage" at Ypres. When the men entered
the communication trenches at Anzin, the front was so
peaceful after the Somme, it was difficult to realize that
the enemy was close at hand. The last day of the month
saw the Battalion, for the first time, in the front line
trenches on the Vimy Front. By the code phrase "Rum
issued at 11.00" they reported the completion of the
relief. The month of November passed; seven men Nov
wounded were the total casualties, a fact indicative of the 1916
quietness of this sector. On the 29th, the night before
leaving the line, a sentry group under Corporal Butters
of : D Company captured two German prisoners who
were handed over to the A. P. M. On the 30th the
Brigade was drawn up for a review by the Corps Com
mander, Lieut. -General Sir Julian Byng who presented
honours to fifteen officers, non-commissioned officers and
men of the Battalion, for their work at the Somme.
Each time when relieved they returned to Etrun, near
Marceuil, where, in a large shed converted into an army
natatorium, were several enormous wine-vats filled with
warm water which soon cleansed the Battalion. Fresh
clothing was another luxury. When in rest billets the
men kept up their training in musketry, bombing and
sniping, and kept fit by route-marching.
They continued the Brigade routine of four days in
the trenches and four days in billets, and December Dec -
passed more or less as the previous month. The weather
became more uncertain; heavy rains did considerable
damage to the trenches. The communication trenches
were conspicuously French in their construction, many
were strongly revetted and still bore their Gallic names.
46 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
1916 Wherever new trenches were required or old ones repaired
it was not uncommon to unearth bits of blue tunics, red
trousers or other evidence of sacrifices made in the
previous year by French troops. The Battalion had one
unpleasant tour during the month. It relieved the 2nd
C. M. R. in the front line on the 17th and had the mis
fortune to lose on the same day, Lieutenant Leonard
Dunsford who had joined but a few days before. Toward
the end of the same tour a minor operation was carried
out by the Brigade. The 1st C. M. R. on the left of the
Battalion were ordered to carry out a raid to procure
identifications of the opposing troops. The 4th C. M. R.
were to make a demonstration and fake attack, with the
object of creating a diversion and to cover the retirement
of the 1st C. M. R. The Battalion distracted the enemy
so successfully, especially by the preparatory bombard
ment with trench-mortars, that a heavy retaliation was
concentrated on them, destroying their assembly trench
and inflicting so many casualties that their fake
attack was abandoned. The 1st C. M. R. carried out
their raid without a casualty before the enemy realized
what was taking place. Their commanding officer tele
graphed his gratitude for the whole-hearted support
given by the Battalion. The Brigade allotted five extra
"leaves" to the Battalion in recognition of its unselfish
part in the operation.
Dec. 23, They returned to rest billets in Etrun on the 23rd going
into Divisional Reserve. Here they spent their second
Christmas; few being still with the Battalion who came
to France with it. The men were fortunate to be out of
the line and able to have a good Christmas dinner. The
extra rations and comforts were largely due to the kind
ness and generosity of Lieut.-Colonel H. C. Cox, Honorary
Colonel of the 9th Mississauga Horse, who, every Christ
mas sent to Lieut.-Colonel Gordon 100 to be spent in
comforts for the men. The officers had a particularly
gay time. Captain H. Franks abandoned his dignified
office of adjutant and became the centre of amusement
during and after the dinner.
The Battalion was back in the trenches for the New
VIMY RIDGE 47
Year. The weather was wet and the rain caused many J*-
fatigues in repairing the disintegrating trenches. It was
relieved by the 5th Cameron Highlanders in the middle of
the month and went into billets at Bois-des-Alleux.
These were for the most part Nissen Huts, tucked away
in a green wood beside the river Scarpe, about a mile north
of Maroeuil. They lay in the shadow of the church, at
Mont St. Eloy, a battered remnant of a previous war;
although occasionally shelled, it served as an excellent
observation post commanding a wonderful view of Vimy
Ridge. The Battalion went into the left sub-sector of the
Ecurie front, where it remained until February 5th, then
returning to Mont St. Eloy.
On the morning of the llth the unit started on a long Feb. n,
march to an entirely different area to train and "rest";
a very ambiguous word in the vocabulary of the army.
The first day the Battalion and Transport marched ten
miles north-west to Houdain and the next day almost as
t/
far to Burbure, a small town two miles south of Lillers.
It subsequently became one of the favourite billets of the
Battalion. The men settled down to five weeks of arduous
training. It was, in reality, their first preparation for
the assault on Vimy Ridge. They did all the things which
they had practised before going to France, but in addition
they rehearsed what was expected would happen in the
near future. They brought into play every arm of their
service which might be used in a big attack. Scouts and
Signallers received special training. The Battalion as a
whole assaulted in new formations on taped trenches and
later the Brigade practised as one, in similar tactics.
Nothing was left undone which had any bearing on the
necessary preparation for a machine-like assault at the
appointed time.
There were diversions in the training. The Corps
Commander, General Byng, presented decorations to the
Brigade on the 25th, and "C Company had the honour Feb. 25,
of forming one of the companies in the composite battalion
which was inspected. There were plenty of sports to
break the monotony, culminating in a Divisional
Sports Day at the end of the month when the Battalion
48 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
had the distinction of winning first prize in the bombing
competition.
Mar. is, On March 18th the Battalion started on its return to
the trenches. It moved off at 9.15 a.m., with the Trans
port and Details, Trench-Mortar Section, Orderly Room
and Band. It returned by different but parallel routes
through Ruitz, where half the Battalion was left for a
time with Major Patterson, the rest continuing to Forester
Camp. On the 21st, "A" and "B" Companies relieved
part of the 9th Brigade. They left Villers-au-Bois at
7 p.m. and marched to Mont St. Eloy. As it was dark
they took the road down to La Targette, through the
ruins of Neuville St. Vaast, entered the trenches and pro
ceeded into the front line, 1,000 yards to the north-east
of the town. Because of the winter rains the trenches
were wet and uninviting. Five days later, " C " and " D "
Companies relieved "A" and "B" Companies and Major
Patterson took over the forward headquarters.
As previously explained, the whole of No Man s Land
on this front was a series of mine-craters with saps
leading into them and continuous raids made the Can
adians dominant over their Front. On March 30th,
Lieutenant E. G. Richards led a battle patrol between
Devon and Vernon craters to the enemy s line. The
patrol which was divided into two parties of three men
each, one under Corporal Martin and the other under
Corporal Dawson, crawled in the dark to the enemy s
parapet. They saw three Germans whom they bombed
and killed; in the next bay they killed two more. By this
time the enemy was aroused and the raiding party with
drew ; the posts in Vernon and Devon craters bombarding
the enemy with bombs and rifle grenades inflicting
considerable damage. Lieutenant Richards, who had
been wounded at the outset but continued, was again hit,
this time by a cylindrical stick bomb which left a gaping
wound in his abdomen. He was a Niagara fruit-grower
before the war, a powerfully-built man, as brave as he was
strong. It was not his first raid, he had been on several
before; on one occasion he and Lieutenant T. W. E.
Dixon entered the German trenches in front of Ecurie
VIMY RIDGE 49
and nailed up a sign : " Come on over and we will treat you
right. " This time he was not so fortunate; he was
crawling through the enemy s wire when mortally
wounded. Corporal Martin and Private F. Brazeau, with
great difficulty, succeeded in dragging him out of the
entanglement. Lieutenant Gregory Clark, who was on
duty in the front trenches, went out to assist the
others who were then trying to place Richards on
a duck-board. Finally, Lieutenant T. W. E. Dixon
arrived with a stretcher party and carried him in
but unfortunately this gallant officer died the next
morning in the Field Ambulance. Two days later,
General Byng sent this message to the Brigade: "Please
convey to all ranks of the 8th Canadian Infantry Brigade
our great appreciation of their repeatedly successful raids. "
The Battalion arrived in rest billets in Villers-au-Bois
on April 1st and made final preparations for the attack April i,
on Vimy Ridge; practising over imaginary trenches and
having a thorough inspection of kit and equipment. On
the night of 5th/6th, the men went again into the same
line, relieving one company of the 52nd Battalion and
one company of the 60th Battalion. Headquarters were
located in Goodman Tunnel. The trenches had become
worse, some were partially filled with water; large work
ing parties, however, soon drained and repaired the
jumping off places. On the night of the 6/7th, two
parties under Lieutenants F. A. Herman and H. Bennett
successfully cut the wire in front of P ; line and the
following night, beneath a searching moon, parties from
"A" Company, under Lieutenants T. W. E. Dixon and
G. T. Aitkens cut a line through the wire between the
craters, Albany, Devon and Vernon. Lieutenant Aitkens
had been slightly wounded on the previous day but
pluckily returned to duty to participate in the big show
where, at its outset, he was wounded again.
Toward the end of 1916, the Battle of the Somme was
still in progress but the possibility of a break-through was
doubtful. General Joffre proposed a simultaneous attack
by both armies on a wide front. The British were to
attack from Vimy to Bapaume and the French from the
50 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Somme to the Oise. When it was discovered in February,
1917, that the Germans were retiring from the Somme
Salient to the Hindenburg line this plan was postponed.
General Nivelle* succeeded General Joffre in February,
and, modifying the plans, decided to attack in April.
The British First Army under General Home, and the
Third Army under General Allenby, attacked on April
9th. The Fifth Army on the extreme right, south of
Arras in front of Bullecourt, also participated, but only
to support the flank of the main attack. The French,
who were to attack on the 12th, were delayed until the
16th. The British offensive over a fifteen mile front
developed into the Battle of Arras, of which Vimy Ridge
was a part. They almost succeeded in breaking through
south-east of Arras, but were stopped at the strong
defences of the Hindenburg line. Apart from the crippl
ing blow to the enemy, the great success of this battle was
the accomplishment of the Canadian Corps in capturing
Vimy Ridge. Its immediate advantage was the securing
of the left flank in the Arras attack but its profound impor
tance was realized in March, 1918, during the German
offensive. Ludendorff admitted that it stood in his way
of success at that time. The Prime Ministerf in the
British House of Commons, referred to it as the "fruits of
the first experiment in the unity of command." In spite
of this statement it is an interesting fact that the French
Higher Command did not think that Vimy Ridge could be
taken under the proposed British plan ; the great success
of this operation, therefore, was one of the proudest
achievements of General Home s First Army and espec
ially General Byng s Canadian Corps.
No battle could have been prepared more thoroughly.
Every unit from corps to platoon knew exactly what it
had to do. Prior to the attack a stupendous bombard
ment was kept up day and night for a week along this
huge front, flattening every obstruction and hammering
the back areas (2,880 guns fired approximately 88,000
tons of ammunition, almost twice the amount expended

in preparation for the Battle of the Somme). In Gun
Valley, behind the Arras-Bethune road, artillery of all
calibre stood almost wheel to wheel giving the Canadians
the greatest moral and physical support they had ever
had before going into action. Mines were laid under the
German front line; one on the Battalion s front between
Chassery and Albany craters was to be blown, thirty
seconds after zero hour. The many dumps were filled
with consolidating materials, ammunition, water and
every conceivable necessity. At least a quarter-of-a-
million men were to participate in this gigantic thrust.
Each infantryman had his usual equipment as well as
twenty -four hours rations and forty-eight hours iron
rations, five sand bags, two flares, four bombs, flags and
everything else that an emergency might demand.
Apart from the previous training, everyone was made
familiar with all the details of the attack. Ample warn
ing was given for officers and men to discuss the plans
and make arrangements for eventualities. Four days in
advance, preliminary instructions were circulated and on
the 7th operation orders were received for the assault and
capture of Vimy Ridge. Colonel Gordon issued his
Battalion operation orders the same night and held a
final conference with his Company Commanders the
following day.
The Canadian Corps which was on the extreme left of
the First Army, attacked with four Divisions. The
Third Division faced in the direction of Vimy Village with
the 7th and 8th Brigades in line and the 9th Brigade in
support. The 8th Brigade attacked with the 1st, 2nd
and 4th C. M. R. Battalions in line and the 5th C. M. R.
in support. The 4th C. M. R. was the most northerly
Battalion of the 8th Brigade. On its right was the 2nd
C. M. R. and on its left the R. C. R. of the 7th Brigade.
Each battalion advanced in four waves, each of one
company, with two platoons leading and one following for
the purpose of mopping up. Each company had four
officers and about one hundred and fifty men. The final
objective of the initial attack was three-quarters of a mile
from the front line, beyond La Folie Farm and the
52 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
1917 Germans third line of forward defences. This, briefly,
was the order of attack and disposition of the units. In
condensed detail the companies of the 4th C. M. R. were
given the following objectives: "A" Company, under
Major B. R. Gale, was to take the first line on a 350 yard
front, completely mop it up and then pass on to Zwischen
Trench. Captain M. M. Hart, with "B" Company, was
to pass through "A" Company and deploy to attack a
strong communication trench, Artillerie Weg, on the
northerly flank and a smaller trench on the right and
southerly flank and then meet his frontal objective, the
Zwischen system which was the strong second line of
defence. : C Company, commanded by Major A. P.
Menzies, had the third line of defence, Fickle Trench, a
thousand yards from our front line. If, however, they
found that B Company was held up at Zwischen
Trench, they were to combine with them until it was
reduced and then attack Fickle together. Major A. A.
MacKenzie with "D" Company had orders to take the
crest of the Ridge between L Ecole Commune and La
Folie Farm and to assist, if necessary, the R. C. R. Reg
iment on the left to take the former and the 2nd C. M. R.
Battalion on the right to take the latter point d appui.
April 8, The assaulting troops spent the early part of the night
of the 8th in dug-outs and tunnels in and behind the front
line. These concentrating points were necessarily
crowded. Companies were squeezed into the ordinary
accommodation of a platoon. The men could not lie
down with comfort, so they sat around the light of a
candle and dozed or played poker for unusual stakes,
collecting paper credits which were given freely by the
pessimistic members who sat in the game. Early in the
morning they moved out to the jumping-off points. The
bombardment had ceased. There was a deathlike silence.
An occasional shell would scream across the sky and
accentuate the stillness. The rattle of equipment, the
muffled curses of the sergeants calling for less noise, added
to the weird tension. All were hoping their movements
would not be detected. Finally, the order to fix bayonets
was given and a ripple of clicks passed along the line and
VIMY RIDGE 53
died with the last obstinate rifle. An ominous whistle
was blown somewhere in the German trenches, but
nothing developed. The enemy seemed unaware of his
impending fate.
At 5.30 a.m. Easter Monday, April 9th, the sharp bark
of our barrage opened. Half a minute later the mine at
Goodman Tunnel sap was sprung and A" Company was
on its way across the hundred yards of No Man s Land.
Immediately the enemy s barrage was laid down on our
trenches. By 5.35 a.m. "A" Company was in possession
of the German front line and a few minutes later the
men were entering the immediate support trench. The
enemy s barrage shortened to his own front line. Lieu
tenant T. W. E. Dixon took up a position and observed
from the top of Edmonton Crater reporting the progress
of the attack to Battalion Headquarters. The troops
followed closely the creeping barrage and in clockwork
succession took each objective. The final objective was
reached in less than two hours, and by 7.35 a.m. the
Companies had reported in writing by runners that they
were in position and their flanks resting on the points laid
down in their orders. It was found that the Battalion on
the left had eased over to the north, leaving a gap of a
hundred yards. Lieutenant B. C. Pierce took a platoon
of " A " Company and a few other Details that he collected
and filled this gap and later successfully assisted the
Battalion on his left to repel a counter-attack. His
presence of mind and quick action undoubtedly relieved
an awkward situation. On account of the pressure on
the left, reinforcements were asked for and Lieutenant
E. A. Abbey, who was subsequently killed, was sent for
ward with eighty men. Major A. P. Menzies also gave
assistance to Lieutenant Pierce; they both contributed to
the success of the enterprise and later, in a calmer
moment, were standing on the Ridge shaking hands and
offering mutual congratulations when Lieutenant Pierce
was shot through the head by a sniper in La Folie Wood.
Major Menzies did further valuable work and was
awarded the Military Cross. Captain M. M. Hart
after accurately locating Zwischen Stellung which had
54 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
been practically obliterated, organized his men with
characteristic coolness and consolidated the position
and went to the assistance of Major Menzies. Later
he went forward to reconnoitre and sent back most
valuable information. For his splendid leadership he
was awarded the Military Cross. Lieutenant W. G.
Butson, who had commanded his Company but a few
hours, was so severely wounded that he died the follow
ing day. This gallant officer stepped into the place of
Major A. A. MacKenzie, M. C., who was wounded at the
outset, and with courage and tenacity led his men to the
brilliant accomplishment of their task.
The Signallers, under Lieutenant J. R. Woods, did
excellent work following closely behind the infantry with
their drums of wire and reported at 9.30 a.m. that they
had established a station in Zwischen and connected it
with Headquarters. This was the first wire available
on this sector and was of invaluable assistance to the artil
lery. Colonel Gordon then went forward to Zwischen
with Lieutenant T. W. E. Dixon, who was acting as Scout
Officer, and left Major W. R. Patterson in charge of
Battalion Headquarters. On arriving at the forward
Headquarters Lieutenant Dixon, with a few men, scouted
the forward positions and reported the location of the
front line to Colonel Gordon, who went forward and
inspected them. It was found that a strong point had
been established well in front and toward La Folie Wood
and that Lieutenant G. Clark of "D" Company and his
men, who were holding it, were receiving severe punish
ment from machine-gun fire. During the afternoon,
Colonel Gordon inspected the front line and found the
situation well in hand. It became obvious that it would be
suicidal for Lieutenant Clark to attempt to hold the
strong-point and he was ordered to withdraw his men as
soon as darkness fell. No one could have been more
cheery or offered greater encouragement to his men than
Lieutenant Clark. After his Company Commander and
Second-in-Command became casualties he took charge
leading the Company to its final objective and then
established the strong-point which he personally organ-
VIMY RIDGE 55
ized and where he remained under severe machine-gun A P ril
7 Q 1 7
fire until ordered to withdraw. For this devotion to duty
he was awarded the Military Cross. C. S. M. McQuarrie,
who was captured the previous year at Sanctuary Wood
but managed to escape to our lines and re-join, was
wounded while rendering valuable service for which he
won the D. C. M.
During the night, patrols were sent out to keep in
touch with the enemy. One patrol, under Lieutenant
L. G. Mills, encountered an enemy patrol, which they
engaged. A fusillade of bombs scattered them and they
fled, leaving behind one of their number dead. Also, dur
ing the night, supplies of ammunition, bombs, water, rum
and rations were successfully delivered to the fighting
troops.
The weather, as usual on the day of a British attack,
was disappointing. It was wet and raw the day before
and on the morning of the attack snow fell making the
going heavy. The men went forward in almost blinding
sleet. Later in the day the storm cleared and the sun
came out. During the next two days snow fell until the
ground was white. They had discarded their great-coats
and in consequence suffered from the cold. There was a
curious phenomenon, still unexplained, which raised the
curiosity of the men on the morning of the assault. As
they crossed No Man s Land they noticed the water in the
shell-holes was gory. In fact some of the men were quite
positive that it was blood; but their judgment was
probably warped by the circumstances and in the heat
of the moment had no time to make an examination. As
its appearance was coincident with the snow it would at first
suggest to a student of Biology that it might be the minute
algae (Spcerella nivalis] which sweeps over the melting
Arctic snow and turns it blood-red; but, as the temper
ature was not sufficiently low for this small organism
it may have been some species of small pigmented
protozoan sometimes found in temporary pools and
which had been lying in the encysted stage until the
snow and rain fell. It has remained a mystery to the
Battalion.
56 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The enemy offered a very weak resistance; the bom
bardment had been too severe. Trenches were oblit
erated and unrecognizable, even the strong Zwischen
Stellung was so battered that only its deep dug-outs
remained. The usual trying counter-attacks did not
develop, and as previously mentioned, it was not until
all the objectives had been reached that serious losses
were incurred. These were chiefly caused by keeping in
touch with the retiring enemy and in establishing strong
points. From the Ridge the Germans could be seen in
the distance limbering up their guns and moving off at a
gallop. The ground fell away almost steeply into La
Folie Wood, where they were making a stand. Beyond
the Wood was Vimy and the enemy s last defensive
position, the Vimy-Lens line.
The great day the men had been preparing for and
anticipating had come and gone. It was an unparalleled
success, working out as planned. Hundreds of prisoners,
including three officers, one a colonel, passed back
through the Battalion to the prison cages. Seven
machine-guns and trench mortars and other trophies were
taken. The Battalion had done all and more than it
had been asked to do. Considering the magnitude of the
operations, the casualties on the 9th were light. In the
original assault there were practically no casualties, most
of them occurred afterwards, when the machine-gun posts
in the outpost line were being maintained. Manv were
sniped when they silhouetted themselves on the skyline.
One officer and forty-three men were killed, one officer
died of wounds, five officers and one hundred and thirty-
one men wounded.
April 10, On the following day, the 10th, twenty-five men, under
Lieutenant T. W. E. Dixon, were sent out as a patrol
with instructions to attempt to get as far as Petit Vimy
and find out the location and strength of the enemy.
After working their way down the sunken road into La
Folie Wood they discovered a force of Germans with a
machine-gun which opened fire on them. As the trench
they occupied ran into the area of the Battalion on the
left it was arranged that a joint attack should follow a
VIMY RIDGE 57
bombardment the next day. Otherwise, the day was
quiet. Unfortunately, Lieutenant E. A. Abbey, after
surviving the first day, was killed. It was a great
handicap to the Battalion to lose this officer. The battle
field was cleared and the wounded evacuated. The
Medical Officer, Major H. C. Davis, had a dirty little
shelter behind the crest in which he cared for the wounded.
He worked throughout the day, with a door for an
operating table until all the wounded were cleared.
There was another Davis attached to the Battalion
Captain W. H. Davis, Chaplain, recently joined, who at
once became endeared to the men. The first glimpse
they had of their beloved Padre in action was seeing him
in the twilight on the crest of the Ridge, his steel helmet
hung over his arm, prayer-book in hand, burying the dead,
regardless of shells dropping around him. The Battalion
was blessed with two great Da vis s.
On the morning of the llth orders were received to April 11,
dislodge the enemy from a trench half-way down the 1917
reverse slope of the Ridge. To do this at least one hun
dred men would have been required and the casualties
would have been very heavy owing to the distance they
would have to go over exposed ground down the face of
the hill and the difficulty of howitzers being effective in
dropping shells over such a sharp declivity. Colonel
Gordon, in arranging for artillery support, found that
the gunners had no officer available to observe and that
they had only two hundred rounds of delayed-fuse shells
to shoot. He, therefore, volunteered to go forward and
observe for the gunners, but before he got them accur
ately registered on their target he was almost blown out
of his observation-post. This bombardment was so
successful that Lieutenant T. W. E. Dixon, who had done
such excellent work already, for which he was recommend
ed for the Military Cross, was able to take a patrol
through the wood to the foot of the slope without loss.
The action of Colonel Gordon undoubtedly resulted in
the saving of many lives. During the afternoon the
Battalion was heavily shelled for four hours. Much of
their new trenches were flattened and ten men became
58 4 T H CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
casualties. It was during this bombardment that Lieut
enant C. L. Johnston was killed.
They had been in the line for sixty -three hours under
the most trying weather conditions without blankets or
greatcoats and with a very meagre rest the night before
the attack. They were relieved in a snowstorm on the
night of the llth and tramped back through the mud,
over the ground they had captured, to Neuville St.
Vaast. The condition of the ground and the weather
was so terrible and the men so tired that the Battalion
had great difficulty getting out. They had been looking
forward to returning to the comfortable huts they
had left on the first of the month, but were bitterly
disappointed to find themselves in an improvised
camp, which had hardly been completed, known as
Dumbell Camp. Insufficient tents without floorboards
were pitched on the muddy ground behind the front line;
consequently, the men had only the sodden ground on
which to rest after this unusually arduous time. Outside
of the trenches it was the worst place the Battalion had
experienced since arriving in France. They spent two
days trying to improve their habitation and finally
moved the whole camp from the mire it was in to slightly
higher and less saturated ground. They had but one
day in the new camp when they were ordered to go into
bivouacs at Fort George, a redoubt built in the support
trench system a few hundred yards north of Neuville St.
Vaast.
While at Dumbell Camp, General Lipsett addressed the
Battalion, congratulating Colonel Gordon, his officers,
N. C. O s and men on their discipline and bearing during
the engagement. He complimented them for the precise
way they had carried out their orders and thanked them
for their share in the successful achievement of his
Division :
Colonel Gordon, Officers, N.C.O. s and men of the 4th C.M.R.
Battalion. General Elmsley gave me kind permission to come and
tell you how pleased I am to thank you all for what you have done
in the late engagement and which is still going on. It was the most
complete victory in the history of the British Army. So far, we
have taken approximately 12,000 German Prisoners, 160 Guns and
VIMY RIDGE 59
several of the enemy s most important positions. The Corps and April
Army Commander both came around and expressed their great appre- 1917
eiation, of the Division s work of which the 8th Brigade was very
prominent. In this battle, there must have been nearly a quarter of
a million troops engaged. The history of VIMY RIDGE is well
known now; it was in 1914, the French made a big attack here and
twice in 1915 but only achieved partial success at very heavy cost,
therefore the Canadians should feel proud that their efforts met with
such marked success. These wars are very trying, but it is for us
to continue, and it is the men who can come on and fight that will
win the war. This is what the British and Canadians have shown by
the recent battle. The Artillery preparation was splendid and we
expected few casualties. I am sorry to say they were rather heavy,
but these lives were not wasted, they did not die in vain. The credit
devolves on yourselves, your officers, n.c.o. s and men alike. The
hardships and discomforts of holding the line, the monotonous details
of preparation, I appreciate, but it is one satisfaction to know that
we have one of the finest Divisions in France and of which the 4th
C.M.B. forms no inconsiderable part. The engagement is still pro
ceeding, there will be more Bosche to handle, but I have no doubt
as to the way in which you will handle them. I cannot fully express
my thanks to you all for the way in which you carried out the work
you had to do, but it makes me feel very proud to be in Command
of this Division. I thank you all very much.
For a week during the continuance of the battle the
Battalion provided large working parties for salvaging
and making roads. Fresh troops were engaged and the
Germans gradually pushed back beyond Vimy. The
British were in complete control of the Ridge, which
commanded the broad plain to the east. We had
advanced to a line running through Avion, Mericourt and
Acheville, when the Battalion was ordered to relieve the
5th C. M. R. facing this line. This was done on the night
of April 21st. The Battalion s new position was approx- April 21,
imately a mile south-west of Avion, adjacent to the 1917
Lens-Arras railway and about two miles north-east from
the crest of the Ridge which they took on April 9th. The
line ran more or less through the German defence system,
known as the Thelus-Vimy-Lens line. Some parts of it
were still in the possession of the enemy. A series of
strong points were thrown out and these were protected
at night by large patrols.
Vimy Ridge had been included in an offensive pro
gramme arranged between General Joffre and General
Haig in November, 1916. The date for its capture was
postponed when General Joffre was succeeded by General
60 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Ni y<r lle after the Somme. On February 27th, 1917, the
British War Cabinet decided to place the British Army at
the disposal of the French Commander-in-Chief for his
Spring offensive. As previously mentioned, the French at
tack followed the British a week later, on the 16th, and un
fortunately it was not the success that was anticipated.
Other French attacks followed on April 23rd and May 3rd.
The French Nation expected more than was accomplished
and the Government appointed General Petain as Chief of
the General Staff on April 29th, and finally, on May 10th,
General Petain succeeded General Nivelle as Commander-
in-Chief.
April 23, The British attacked simultaneously with the French
on April 23rd. This day found the 4th C. M. R. still in
the line and they were ordered to undertake a flanking
operation to protect the Fifth Imperial Division, which was
attacking in the direction of Avion, over a front extending
from the Avion -Arras railway to the Souchez River; their
first objective including part of the Thelus-Vimy-Lens
system. The 8th Brigade was to co-operate by advancing
its left flank to protect the right of the Fifth Imperial
Division; the 4th C. M. R. on the left of the Brigade,
participated in the operation.
In the absence of Colonel Gordon, who was on leave,
Major Patterson issued orders for a platoon of "A"
Company, under Lieutenant M. W. MacDowell, to move
forward under the barrage shortly after zero hour. The
platoon was divided, two sections under Sergeant Griffin
were to advance along a sunken road, bomb the enemy out
of his trenches and join up with the other party of two
sections under Sergeant Duncan, who were to go by the
railway embankment to the point where the enemy trench
entered it. A supporting platoon, under Lieutenant D. S.
Fleek, was detailed to dig and maintain three rifle pits
about 150 yards apart in advance of our front line, and
also provide a covering party in the vacated trenches.
Lieutenant T. W. E. Dixon, who was again acting as
scout officer, reported at 1.30 a.m. that the rifle pits had
been dug, according to orders. At 4.45 a.m. the guns
opened and the attacking platoon followed. The bar-
VIMY RIDGE 61
rage lasted for half an hour, it was then daylight and the April
enemy immediately opened an intense machine-gun and
rifle fire from the vicinity of the railway. Lieutenant
MacDowell with the right party got within fifty yards of
the enemy s trench when he came under such heavy fire
and was receiving so many casualties among his men that
he decided to take cover and give battle to the machine-
gun nests. They were kept under a continuous fire all
day and at dusk a party of 150 of the enemy counter
attacked. His party was forced to retire but fought the
enemy with bombs and grenades until they reached one of
the advanced rifle pits and dispersed the attack with the
aid of a Lewis gun inflicting heavy losses and practically
wiping out the enemy s party.
Sergeant Duncan, with the left party of two sections,
got well along the railway through several gun pits until
within fifty yards of the enemy trench, when serious
resistance was encountered. They took cover in a culvert
and gun-pits which they held all day. The enemy had
three machine guns well placed in the railway embank
ment and were holding up the advance of the battalion
on the left. An attempt was made to rush the machine-
gun posts, but at once four men were hit and the attempt
was abandoned. As the party was so far in advance of
the troops on the left, it was decided to withdraw them
at dusk. Instructions had been received from the Bri
gade to withdraw before dark, but it was impossible to
comply on account of the counter-attack.
The casualties were very severe: Lieutenants D. S.
Fleek and A. E. Allen were wounded, four men were killed,
thirty-four wounded and eight missing. The bombard
ment had not been sufficient to demolish the enemy s
machine-guns and his defences were too strong for such
a small attacking force, despite its outstanding pluck and
gallantry. Lieutenant MacDowell was awarded the Mili
tary Cross for remaining, after he had orders to retire,
re-organizing his men and breaking up a counter-attack,
although they were greatly outnumbered. Both Ser
geants Griffin and Duncan were recommended for the
D. C. M. and received the Military Medal. Sergeant
62 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
April Duff, who subsequently was granted a commission, did
valuable work in trying to form a liaison with the bat
talion on his left. He exposed himself on several occa
sions to get information for his Battalion.
General Lipsett, in forwarding the report of the opera
tions to the Corps, complimented the Battalion: I
think this operation was well carried out, the men gained
their objective in tunnel under railway and held it all day.
In my opinion a great deal of credit is due to the manner
in which the operation was planned arid to the gallantry
displayed by all ranks who took part. The men had
finally to be withdrawn because they were in an absolutely
isolated position. 1
April 24 The night following this operation, the Battalion
1917 handed over to details of the P. P. C. L. I. and 49th Bat
talion, returning to the back area at Villers-au-Bois.
They spent a comfortable week in huts, where they
re-equipped, had baths, and were paid. More reinforce
ments arrived which made the number received during
the month, seven officers and 312 other ranks. This rest
brought them to the end of April. The enemy had been
completely driven from the Ridge, and was still being
pressed vigorously. A review* of the month reveals the
effectiveness of the Battalion, although acting on such a
small frontage. The casualties were not too severe,
considering what was accomplished.!
3 > On May 3rd Lieutenant-General Sir Julian Byng sent
the following message to all units of the Canadian Corps:
The brilliant operations during the past month, culminating in the
capture of Arleux and Fresnoy, seem to give me the opportunity of ex
pressing to all ranks the pride I feel in commanding the Canadian Corps.
Since the 9th April, when the offensive against Vimy Ridge began,
till the morning of May 3rd, when Fresnoy was captured and consoli
dated, it has been one series of successes only obtained by troops whose
courage, discipline and initiative stand pre-eminent. New villages have
passed into our hands. Eight German Divisions have been met and de
feated. Over 5,000 prisoners have been captured and booty, oom-
* 253 prisoners were taken, including three officers, one a colonel, four machine-
guns and three trench mortars were captured.
t Casualties during the month of April: three officers killed, one died of
wounds, and six wounded. Forty-eight men killed, 175 wounded and twelve
missing.
Lieutenant-Colonel W. R. Patterson, D.S.O.
VIMY RIDGE 63
prising some 64 guns and howitzers, 106 trench mortars and 126 May
machine-guns are now trophies of the Canadians. 1917
The training undergone during the winter has borne its fruit, and
it is this training, coupled with the zeal and gallantry which are so
conspicuous in all ranks of the Corps, that will continue to give results
as potent and far reaching as those which began the capture of Vimy
Ridge.
With the advent of May the weather improved; there
were a few showers but for the most part the days were
bright and warm. The ground was drying and altogether
both living and working conditions were vastly improved.
The Canadian Corps was still engaged under the First
Army in pressing back the enemy. The First and
Second Divisions were employed on May 3rd in the
general attack heretofore mentioned. The front was
approximately three miles beyond the village of Vimy
on the Mericourt-Acheville-Oppy line. The Battalion
did not take part in this attack, but replaced a battalion
of the 7th Brigade at the Pylones, a part of the old front
line it had been in a month before. On the 6th they left May 6,
these shelters for others on La Folie Ridge, where they
continued to supply large working parties. While making
this shift they were heavily shelled, and seven casualties
resulted. Lieutenants T. Todd and G. V. Cooke were
wounded, three men were killed and two wounded. On
the 10th they relieved two Companies of the 1st C. M. R.
and one Company of the 2nd C. M. R. in the line on the
Mericourt-Acheville front. On the first day in the line,
Lieutenant H. C. Rounds was wounded.
Lieutenant-Colonel H. D. L. Gordon, D. S. O., who
reorganized the Battalion after Sanctuary Wood, and
under whose leadership the unit distinguished itself both
on the Somme and Vimy Ridge, left on May 16th to take May ie,
command of the 8th Reserve Battalion in England. He
was succeeded by Major W. R. Patterson, D. S. O., one
of the few remaining original officers.
The month of June, for the Battalion, was very similar j une
to the previous month. Two tours were made in the
front line, both about 1,500 yards south of Avion, in
front of Mericourt. Their position on the second tour
was adjacent to the scene of their fighting of April 23rd,
64 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
1917; the lines around Avion having advanced very little
in a month. On the first tour, during the early morning of
the 5th, a strong German patrol was seen approaching one
of the posts which was part of our front line. Captain
H. A. Scott organized two parties to try and surround
the hostile patrol; one party moving down the Mont
Foret-Mericourt Road and the other a little to the
north. They successfully closed in on the raiders, killing
four and capturing an unwounded prisoner of the 4th
Guards Division.
During the next day the enemy dropped numerous gas
shells and at intervals bombarded our line. Lieutenant
E. Davison was killed and Lieutenant M. W. MacDowell
wounded. During the following night a patrol under
Lieutenant A. D. McDonald, was protecting a party
engaged in digging jumping-off trenches. The patrol
encountered a prowling party of the enemy whom they
attacked so smartly that they fled in disorder, leaving
behind several of their numbers.
The warm sunny days and their long evenings gave
excellent visibility; consequently, aeroplanes were con
tinuously crossing and re-crossing the line. The slower-
going contact-patrols taxied up and down the front
in the early mornings and often during the day. The
great superiority which the British Air Force had at
tained was very evident. Large bombing flights could
be seen returning at sunrise or heard going over in the
night. During this less eventful period the interest in the
air was singularly noticeable. The writer of the Regi
mental Diary recorded almost daily this activity and
gave it equal weight in importance with the shelling and
counter-shelling which was continually in progress.
July i, On July 1st the Battalion moved from Villers-au-Bois
to Comox Camp, a little nearer the front, but still in the
Reserve area. There was an unusual job that week. For
three days large parties were sent to Hill 145 to build an
observation post for His Majesty the King, who was
expected on the 9th to visit the Divisional area and see
Vimy Ridge and from it look at the places beyond, where
fighting was in progress. About a year before, His
VIMY RIDGE 65
Majesty had climbed the ruined tower of the church at
Mont St. Eloy and from that splendid observation point
saw the celebrated Vimy Ridge, when it belonged to the
Germans. Hill 145 was the highest point on the Ridge,
and the Fourth Division found it one of the hardest
nuts to crack on April 9th. It was taken the after
noon of the following day by a brilliant assault. The
visit of the King created a new interest and diversified
the routine. The Battalion was to supply a composite
platoon from each Company and line the Carency-Sou-
chez Road to cheer His Majesty as he passed, but his visit
was postponed until the llth and the Battalion relieved
the P. P. C. L. I. in the front line on the 10th on the
western outskirts of Avion a mile south of Lens. This
move deprived the men of a unique opportunity of seeing
the King, so near the front an unusual experience in
modern war.
The past two months had seen varied fighting around
Lens. In June the Battalion played a small part in one
of the larger attacks, but otherwise took no part in any
of the big, organized efforts to work around Lens from the
south-west. It was an unpleasant spot; the shelling was
worse than the Battalion had experienced for some time.
Major A. P. Menzies was wounded and there were
eighteen other casualties during this tour. Captain
Davis, the Chaplain, was with the men as usual, in the
front line, doing everything he could for their comfort.
For three days he worked with a party of ten men, giving
Christian burial to the dead who had been left unburied
in the area ; his courage and scorn of danger endeared him
to all who knew him. This tour, which ended on the
17th, was the last for a month. July 1
1917
The Brigade was withdrawn to train for an attack on
the Mericourt-Acheville line. Subsequently the Bat
talion went into the line at Lens after an attack by the
First and Second Divisions and later did another tour on
the Vimy front. The scheme on which they trained
during the next month was never carried out; they were
sent, instead, to a more northerly area. As the new
offensive in Flanders progressed, the pressure on the Vimy
66 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
sector became less and less and by this time the t line
had become practically stationary. The trenches were
improved and further consolidated. A few minor oper
ations helped to straighten the zig-zag front and apart
from artillery duels and night bombing, nothing of signifi
cance happened. For the Canadian Corps, interest in
the Vimy area was almost at an end. On July 29th the
Divisional Commander, Major-General Lipsett, circu
lated a memorandum:
The Third Canadian Division has just been withdrawn for training,
after being in the line and continuously engaged since 16th March.
All objectives were captured exactly as ordered in the attack on
Vimy Ridge on 9th April, in subsequent operations the villages of Petit
Vimy, Vimy, La Chaudiere. Avion and German trenches were occupied
and an advance of approximately four and one-half miles was made. I
must thank all ranks for the interest and keenness shown in studying the
situations and making thorough preparations as well as the admirable
way in which the plans were carried out.
The Battalion went to Canada Camp at Bois de la Haie
1917 an d on the 25th marched to Auchel along the old Roman
road, an ancient chaussee which went as straight as a
ruler north-west from Arras. They passed through
Gauchin -Legal, Ranchicourt, Houdain and Divion to
Auchel and were again near Burbure, in the same area
in which they trained for the Vimy show. Auchel was
a small tow T n about four miles south of Lillers and
twice as far west of Bethune on the fringe of the mining
district of Lens. Lieutenant G. Clark was sent ahead
as billeting officer and his successful efforts in billeting
the Battalion on this particular occasion will be re
called by those officers whose depression at the end
of the day was relieved by a convivial evening with
two Staff Officers. The circumstances were as follows;
when the Battalion left Bois de la Haie it was an in
tensely hot August morning with threatening black
clouds rolling up and before billets were reached a
thunderstorm broke. Rain came in torrents and drenched
the men to their skins, playing havoc with the smartness
which had marked their appearance earlier in the day.
In the midst of the storm the Divisional Commander
suddenly appeared and not allowing his sympathy to
overcome his sense of dutv detailed two of his Staff
VIMY RIDGE 67
Officers to march with the Battalion to its billets. As
the red-tabbed escorts were also thrust into the down
pour it was a question who were being censured.
In the meantime Lieutenant Clark had arrived at Auchel
and arranged the billeting. For the Headquarters Mess
he found an attractive home occupied by Madame
Cossart and her two small daughters. Her hus
band was then a prisoner in Germany. When she
learned that she was to have several Canadian officers
billeted in her home she did not shrink from the obvious
load which was being placed upon her household, but
entered enthusiastically into every suggestion made by
Lieutenant Clark. Further, she arranged for the whole
Mess to be her guests at dinner the first night. The
billeting officer, learning what had taken place en route,
laid his plans to give everyone a pleasant surprise,
including the attached Staff Officers. He kept every
thing a secret until the officers had changed their clothes
for dinner and had assembled in the conservatory. Then
Madame and her children were introduced and her
delightful surprise announced. The tall doors of the
dining room were thrown open and Madame presided
over a delicious dinner of many courses and many toasts.
The ordinary rations had been supplemented and disguised
as only a French chef knows how, and when the Staff
Officers left they were feeling so kindly towards the Bat
talion that they had nothing but praise for it.
Many happy days were passed in this hospitable place.
While the house could not be described as a Chateau, it
had, nevertheless, many of the ear-marks of a very
cultured home. The brick walls and wrought-iron gates
enclosed a well-kept garden and park grounds. A
badminton court was laid out on the lawn where the
officers wore out the racquets and shuttle-cocks supplied
by their charming hostess. Later, the officers took great
pleasure in sending a new badminton set from England
to Madame Cossart.
The Battalion settled down to hard training, following
a definite syllabus, rehearsing the new formations adopted
in February, marching in gas masks through an area
68 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
i9n wnere lachrymatory bombs had been exploded, visiting
the Divisional Gas school to test their helmets, and spend
ing almost a month preparing for the attack in front of
Mericourt, which never matured. While at Auchel
Lieut. -Colonel G. F. McFarland, who had previously
commanded the 8th Reserve Battalion in England, joined
the Battalion and reverted to the rank of Major to
become Second-in-Command. About the same time
Captain W. V. Sifton became Adjutant. He was one
of the original officers and went as Staff Captain to the
2nd C. M. R. Brigade, with which he was wounded at
Messines in December, 1915. He rejoined in June and
succeeded Lieutenant J. R. Woods, who was acting adju
tant, vice Captain Innes-Taylor, who was invalided home
after the Vimy battle.
Au i9i? 5 ^ n August 15th, the Battalion moved to Camblain
1 Abbe, twenty kilometres south-east; not as attractive
nor as comfortable a place as Auchel and where there was
not the same liveliness and gaiety. The shops were
improvised; a front room in a house would be converted
in order to display polish, bianco, button-sticks, chocolate
and other things not issued under K. R. or stamped with
a broad-arrow. They remained in the village four days,
carrying out manoeuvres in conjunction with the 1st
C. M. R. Orders were then received to take over some
of the line from the First Canadian Division and the
Battalion moved in stages to the front line.
On the same day that the Battalion moved to Camblain
1 Abbe, the First and Second Canadian Divisions opened
a very determined attack on Hill 70 at Lens. The area
around Lens was more advantageous to the defenders
than the attackers. This dense mining area with its
slag-heaps, railway-sidings and mine-pits was very
difficult for the assaulting troops. In addition, the month
of August was unusually wet; the precipitation had
seldom been so great and during this time rain fell nearly
every day. The big allied offensive in Flanders was also
suffering on account of the weather. Again, as so often
before and afterwards, the elements favoured the enemy.
After a week s hard fighting with very small gains, these
VIMY RIDGE 69
Divisions needed rest and instead of the Third Division Aug.
going to the Mericourt front for which it had been
training, it was turned north to make this relief. The
first move was into reserve at Les Brebis, a half a mile
from Bully-Grenay and two and a half miles due west of
Loos. Its name belied its tranquillity. When the unit
arrived at 9.00 p.m., a high velocity naval gun was
shelling it, but luckily did not cause any casualties.
On the night of August 21st the Battalion relieved the
2nd Canadian Battalion in close support and on the
24th went into the front line about two thousand yards
in front of Loos. The Germans occupied Lens, but the
line on the north and south had been pushed back until
the Battalion was immediately north of the town running
parallel to the Lens-Hulluck Road. No further offensive
was carried out during the tour. The time was spent in
improving the position and digging communication
trenches. The rain continued, making it a most objec
tionable tour, the worst since April.
After three days in the front line they were relieved
by two Imperial Regiments, the 1st Buffs and 1st King s
Shropshire Light Infantry. Returning to Les Brebis for
a day they then proceeded to Bouvigny and went into
huts. On September 4th, they were sent back to the Sept. 4,
Mericourt sector relieving a West Yorkshire Regiment in
the support line around the brick-fields of La Chaudiere
near Vimv Village.
t/ O
Most of the unsportsmanlike innovations of the enemy
were well known to the troops, but they were yet to learn
of the latest perversion of warfare and newest invention
of the Germans. The Battalion left Bois-des-Alleux
about 3.30 p.m., halted at Neuville St. Vaast for tea
and went over the Ridge after dusk. Exactly at midnight
they were subjected to a heavy bombardment of H.E.
and gas-shells for half an hour. After a thirty minute
pause they were again shelled for another half hour.
The gas-shells which sounded like "duds" were not
discernible in the noise of the H.E. It was the first
trial of Mustard Gas" against the Canadian Corps.
The men were not aware of it at the time. The officers at
70 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Battalion Headquarters felt the effects on their throats
and stomachs and put on their respirators before much
damage was done. The brunt of the shelling fell on " C
Company occupying the brick-fields, but they did not
realize their danger until the morning when the sun rose
and began to vaporize the gas which had lain dormant
in the shell holes and on the cold damp bricks. The
men going about without their helmets were suddenly
stricken and collapsed in scores. Ten were killed and
over one hundred seriously gassed. All the officers had
to be evacuated because they remained all day looking
after their men. While none of them died from the
effects, only one returned to France. The remnants of the
company had to be sent to the rear in charge of the
Padre.
Major H. C. Davis, the M. O., did admirable work
in trying to cope with this new pernicious gas. He
analysed the effects and ingeniously contrived antidotes
to relieve the sufferings of the men. The gas left a
distinct odour of mustard in the air, it contaminated the
ground and even penetrated the clothing; the men were
not immunized merely by wearing their gas helmets. It
made them vomit and remove their masks. Swellings,
blisters and blindness resulted. Another atrocity had
been perpetrated, but, like all the others, it had little
bearing on the ultimate results.
Sept. 5, The night following this discouraging incident, the
1917 Battalion relieved a battalion of the 18th Durham Light
Infantry in the front line opposite Mericourt and in
approximately the same trenches that they held in June.
The line had not altered appreciably since the middle of
April. It was intended, however, that this line should
move forward and the proposed attack on the Mericourt-
Sallaumines Ridge was definitely planned. When it was
the Battalion s turn to be relieved, they closed over to the
right into support trenches on the front which it was
expected they would eventually attack. They were

trary to their expectations, it was the last time they saw
that part of the front.
They spent three weeks at Cambligneul, training for
the Mericourt attack, which was destined to be aban
doned. They worked to a carefully prepared syllabus of
training, practising over taped trenches as thoroughly as
they had done prior to Vimy. During this training there
were several cases of diphtheria developed and the Bat
talion was in quarantine from October 6th to 14th. On
October 10th the Battalion was warned to "assume mobile
conditions" and the tactics in training were altered to
conform to those used on the Somme. Five days later
they turned their backs on the Vimy sector and started
north to Flanders.

CHAPTER VI
PASSCHENDAELE
Oct.
1917 /^""^ INCE the Somme the French and British had been
continuing a vigorous offensive. As soon as the
effects of one blow began to wane another was
struck on a different front. When the Battle of
Arras neared a deadlock the British threw their
weight into another huge onslaught in Flanders. This
offensive was designed to keep the enemy on the defensive,
engage reserves, which were continuously increasing as
a result of the Russian collapse, and to wrest from the
Germans the high ground overlooking Ypres and to relieve
that sorely tried bulwark, so long menaced.
This new offensive in Flanders became the Battles
of Ypres, 1917. Three armies were employed; the First
French Army on the north, the Fifth British Army in the
centre, and on the south the Second British Army. The
first of the attacks was launched at the end of July, the
second large attack took place on August 16th and the
third on September 20th when the British, although
suffering heavy losses, captured the high ground across
the Menin Road. In October there were several attacks.
On October 4th, 9th and 12th, the British and Anzacs
advanced slowly under enormous difficulties. The line
was established along the main ridge overlooking Ypres
some 1,000 yards east of the old line occupied by the 4th
C. M. R. on June 2nd, 1916. But Passchendaele was
still in the hands of the enemy.
After the wettest August in many years and an unusu
ally damp September it had been expected that October
would be more favourable, but the rain continued to fall,
turning the country into a bog. Mud had been encoun
tered in every previous offensive, but it was as nothing
compared to this. Troops could be moved only on
72
PASSCHENDAELE 73
specially made tracks floating on a sea of mud. To Oct
venture off them was to risk drowning in the mire; the 1917
sodden ground was so churned by shell-fire that it became
a batter with the consistence of fresh mortar. Its only
virtue was in diminishing the effectiveness of shell-fire
and undoubtedly reducing the number of casualties. The
Allies encountered a new form of defence in the concrete
"Pill-boxes" which were substantially constructed con
crete strong points heavily armed and manned by picked
troops. They necessitated the development of new
tactics and were a strong factor in the retarding of the
offensive. Mud, Pill-boxes and casualties were the out
standing things in this bitter offensive.
The attack on Lens for which the Canadian Corps had
been preparing was postponed on October 4th and the
Canadian Corps ordered north into the fight for Passchen-
daele under General Plumer of the Second Army. On
October 15th, 1917, the Battalion, less "B" Company, Oct. 15,
which followed in the evening, moved off at 6.30 a.m. 1917
from Cambligneul to Savy, where they entrained at
10.30 a.m., and proceeded north by train through Haze-
brouck to Caestre, where they detrained and marched to
the Koorten Loop area, on the border of Belgium. The
Battalion billeted in a picturesque valley of farms, and
had ideal weather which made the route-marches and
physical training a less monotonous task. Officers who
had been with the Regiment in this part of the country
in the earlier days revisited some of their old haunts in the
neighbouring towns of Steenvoorde,CasselandHazebrouck.
This halt was only temporary. On the 21st the Bat- Oct - 2l >
talion moved again, going by train from Caestre to the
heart of ruined Ypres. Many of the men had never
been in Flanders; for them it was a thrilling experience
to be standing amidst the wreckage of the town the
very name of which was synonymous with all that was
terrifying. The fact that troops detrained within the
remnants of this eerie city meant that the Germans
had been pushed back a considerable distance and that,
as in all offensives, things were done behind the lines
which would never be dreamed of during ordinary times.
74 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Oct It was still a very unwholesome place, and a new menace,
1917 even more harrowing than shelling, was gathering momen
tum and making life in the towns behind the lines less
safe and less bearable. This new form of terrorism was
bombing. Organized aerial raids at night became a most
demoralizing factor, darkness no longer bringing conso
lation. Every night, and especially on moonlight nights,
the drone of enemy planes could be heard as they crossed
overhead. Their great height gave the feeling that they
were hovering directly above, searching out and preying
on the individual. It was hard to remove the delusion
that one was being singled out by an invisible demon in
the sky. Few things were more trying to the morale.
As soon as the men had detrained and formed up, they
marched out of the town about two miles north-east
through the celebrated village of St. Jean to where the
hamlet Wieltje used to be. It was daytime when they
passed Salvation Corner to their new billets and they saw
again the activity that goes with a great battle. It
reminded them somewhat of the Somme, it was about
the same time of the year, the weather was similar and
as the Somme, so at Passchendaele the offensive had been
in progress for some months when the Battalion arrived.
The one great difference between the two places was the
country over which they were fighting. They were now in
the lowlands of Flanders, the ground rarely being more than
thirty feet above the sea. Again they were tossed into
the maelstrom of a huge offensive. They became part
of the great whirlpool of traffic. The rapidly changing
scenery, the movement, the animation gave a thrill and
fascination only experienced in these colossal combats.
The roads leading to and from Ypres were jammed with
all kinds of vehicles, from bicycles to gigantic caterpillar-
drawn howitzers. The steady stream of men and animals
never ceased; field-kitchens, limbers, G.S. waggons and
pack-ponies nose-to-tail made an endless chain. Troops
from every quarter of the globe passed and repassed;
black and yellow labour-corps worked unnoticed in the
cosmopolitan medley of fighting and non-combatant
troops.
PASSCHENDAELE 75
Late in the afternoon they arrived in the area to which Oct
they were allotted, and after considerable delay were 1917
accommodated in tents and bivouacs; some went into a
tunnel at Wieltje. It was only a temporary stopping
place in the move forward and the majority made them
selves as comfortable as possible in an open field. The
Transport followed and parked in an open space on the
northerly edge of Ypres. As soon as darkness fell the
enemy s aeroplanes were heard in the sky. One came
just at dark and flew over some neighbouring units and
dropped bombs. Lieutenant N. V. Waddell and Sergeant
Norris, who were visiting the 43rd Battalion at the time,
were wounded.
The following day, October 22nd, the Battalion left Oct. 22,
Wieltje and moved forward to the Reserve area in * **
California Trench. It relieved the 2nd Otago and 2nd
Auckland Regiments of the New Zealand Division,
which had been terribly cut up with the Anzac Corps in
their efforts to reach Passchendaele. The New Zealanders
had lost a great many officers and men and were
anxious to leave the area as quickly as possible but they
did not hand-over in any prefunctory manner, on the
contrary, they went to the greatest pains to explain the
situation and to define the position they were evacuating.
This was one of the few occasions that the Battalion had
a liaison with sister Dominion troops and it was a most
pleasant one.
The next day the Battalion moved into support and Oct. 24,
on October 24th relieved the 1st C. M. R. in the front
line. This was one of the worst reliefs the Battalion ever
experienced. Carried out at night in a heavy rain, it
was almost impossible to make any headway through the
sticky mud; the guides lost their way in the trackless
swamp and it was 5.00 a.m. before the relief was com
pleted. Rations arrived in their mysterious way but the
water-carriers had not navigated this endless sea. As
all drinking water had to be carried up in petrol-tins it
became exceedingly precious by the time it reached the
front line.
During this trying relief and immediately prior to it
76 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Oct the Battalion had several casualites. It lost two very
1917 popular and valuable officers; Captain J. R. Woods and
Lieutenant J. D. Campbell, who were in the support line
on the night of the 24-25th when their dug-out received
a direct hit, were both killed.
i9i7 5 After the relief was completed on the 25th, the weather
cleared and the sun came out, giving the men a chance to
dry their wet and muddy uniforms. There was sufficient
visibility to allow them to see for the first time the
ground over which they were to attack on the morrow.
The Divisional front ran from the south of Wallemolen
to Wolf Farm bending back to Peter Pan and thence to
Fleet Cottage and across the road to the Ravebeek,
which in ordinary years was an innocent rivulet but at
this abnormal time had burst its boundaries and inun
dated the marshy ground on either side. The Battalion
occupied a line which ran from the cemetery of the little
hamlet of Wallemolen on the left to the south of Wolf
Farm, half way to Peter Pan on the right. On the right
front was Wolf Copse and Bellevue Spur, a strongly held
position about five hundred yards up the slope leading
to Passchendaele which was twenty feet higher and
approximately twenty-five-hundred yards awajr. Bat
talion Headquarters was located in Kronprinz Farm six
hundred yards in the rear of the front line. While the
Battalion was almost due west of Passchendaele its front
faced north-east of the village. This situation arose
because of the enlargement of the Ypres Salient. The
attack on Passchendaele started from the old Salient.
As it grew and its radii became longer the line consequently
became straighter, its direction showing that it emanated
from the axis at Ypres.
At this point it may be well to explain the intentions
of the Higher Command and in a very general way give
the objectives and dispositions of the various units before
recounting what happened to the Battalion on the 26th
when it joined in the general attack. The offensive
opened on July 31st and since that time there had been
seven general attacks. The last took place on October 12th.
On October 21st the Battalion learned that the Canadian
PASSCHENDAELE 77
Corps was to undertake operations for the capture of O ct.
Passchendaele in conjunction with the 1st Anzac Corps 1917
on the right, and the 5th Army on the left, the Anzacs and
Canadians coming under General Sir H.Plumer, G.C.M.G.,
of the Second Army. The operation was to be in three
stages, with a few days interval following each stage; the
dates were October 26th, October 30th and November 9th.
The Third and Fourth Canadian Divisions were to com
plete the first and second stages; and the 1st and 2nd
Divisions the third and last stage which included the
capture of Passchendaele village and the main Ridge.
This they did. On October 26th the Third Division had
the Fourth Division on its right and the 63rd Division
of the Fifth Army, better known as the Royal Naval
Division, on its left. The 8th and 9th Brigades entered
the first attack. The latter had a two battalion frontage,
using the 43rd and 58th, while the 8th had one Battalion
frontage, using the 4th C. M. R. Once again the bat
talion was on the extreme left of the Canadian Corps.
The Royal Naval Division was on the left of the Battalion
and the 43rd Battalion of the 9th Brigade on its right.
Colonel Patterson issued orders for two companies to
assemble before zero hour in front of the line and two
companies behind, and as soon as they moved forward
their positions were to be taken by the 1st C. M. R., to
be used, if necessary, to reinforce the attacking troops.
The 2nd C. M. R. Battalion was in support and the 5th
C. M. R. in Reserve and to be used in the second stage
on October 30th. This, roughly, was the disposition of
the troops engaged on the day which the Battalion
attacked.
In the darkness of the early morning of October 26th, Oct 26
1917, the companies assembled in their theoretical 1917
positions. Two companies moved out in front and two
companies remained en echelon behind them. They
carried out these difficult manoeuvres without interference
from the enemy. Heavy clouds threatened rain, it was
difficult to see, there were few landmarks and as the
officers and men had been in the line only one day they
had very little opportunity to orient themselves and to
78 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
determine their objectives. To illustrate the difficulties
of maintaining a sense of location, the guides who brought
in the Battalion got lost on several occasions. As soon
as the bath-mat track was left all was hopeless. Lieuten
ant W. J. Nesbitt, who left Battalion Headquarters
about midnight to join his company which he was leading
into action at 5.40 a.m. got lost although he had less
than 1,000 yards to go. Twice he found himself behind
the enemy s lines and on both occasions was challenged
by a German but managed to escape; finally, after floun
dering around in the mud all night almost exhausted he
located his company just before zero-hour. Later in the
day, during the attack, he had a miraculous escape;
seeing a German about to shoot at him, he dived forward
for the protection of a shell-hole but his flight was in the
same plane as the trajectory of the bullet which ploughed
a furrow down his back parallel to his spine without
killing him.
All companies were to adopt the formation of one
platoon extended in line of sections in file and two pla
toons in file on either flank. In the confusion of battle
it was impossible to retain a definite formation and as in
other shows such regularity soon collapsed, the troops
pushing forward as best they could. "C" Company
under Lieutenant Nesbitt assembled on the left seventy-
five yards in advance of B" Company commanded by
Major M. M. Hart, M.C., and U C Company under
Captain W. R. Muirhead took up a similar position on
the right supported by "A" Company under Major H.
A. Scott.
When the Battalion started to assemble, a company of
the 1st C. M. R. under Major Greenwood occupied the
reserve trenches, as soon as they were vacated, and at
zero-hour moved into the front line. Two Vickers guns
of the 9th Machine Gun Company under Lieutenant
Searles were attached to "A" Company; "D" Company
had one section detailed to it too, as a guard to cover the
pill-boxes on the right. Four Vickers sniping-guns were
to go forward in rear of the attacking troops with a roving
commission to take on whatever targets presented them-
PASSCHENDAELE 79
selves. Each man was in fighting kit with two hundred-
and-twenty rounds of ammunition. Unfortunately,
drinking water, which was badly needed, never reached
the front line and the men went into action with empty
water-bottles.
At zero-hour, 5.40 a.m. October 26th, one-hundred-
and eighty 18-pounders, sixty 4.5-Howitzers and about
one-hundred-and-twenty-five Heavies of various descrip
tions opened over the Divisional front. Trench mortars
concentrated on the wire which was not very formidable,
and on the pill-boxes which were almost immune. A
gentle rain began to fall and the first of the assaulting
troops went forward in a drizzle in the hazy dawn. The
machine-gunners followed and in fifteen minutes the
second wave started. The enemy retaliated with a
heavy barrage and machine-gun fire inflicting heavy
casualties. Also there was a strenuous shelling with
5.9 s but their effect was appreciably reduced by the sodden
soil. Therein lay the mud s only virtue. The men
moved slowly across the slime around the brimming
craters, over and through entanglements until they were
forced to take cover in freshly -made shell-holes.
The enemy s line of defence was not a series of uniform
trenches to be taken and mopped up. Instead there
were isolated trenches and strong-points dotted here and
there. The greatest obstacles were the pill-boxes. They
were manned by picked resistance-troops who fought
with courage and resolution, keeping their rifles and
machine-guns in action until bombed or bayoneted.
Only by collective bravery and individual acts of gallantry
were these obstacles removed. Contrary to popular
belief the majority of pill-boxes were not loop-holed
fortresses from which the defenders fought. They were
square rooms of reinforced-concrete with walls and roof
about five feet thick with one door in the rear leading
into a fire-trench. Their walls were too thick to allow
a field of fire through ports. During a bombardment
and w r hen not in action the garrison gained shelter within
but as soon as an attack was launched the occupants
manned the fire-trench which ran behind and extended
80 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
on either side of the pill-box. They took the place of
deep dug-outs which were impracticable in such a low-
lying country, and were good rallying points giving
moral support to the defenders. They were formidable,
but with one weakness, their range of fire was limited,
and unless covered by other pill-boxes on the flanks the
blind points in the range of fire made it possible for
individual attackers to crawl up under cover and bomb
the garrison behind. This explains many of the indi
vidual acts of heroism in capturing or demolishing a crew
defending a pill-box
The attacking troops were forced to move very slowly.
In two hours they progressed only 500 yards. The sup
porting companies succeeded in reaching the intermediate
objective and one platoon managed to push up to Wood
land Plantation The task was entirely different from
that of Vimy where the artillery had obliterated all
opposition. Here the enemy had to be fought step by
step across the open.
By 10.00 a.m. the Battalion had made a deep advance
and had outstripped the battalions on its flanks. On the
right the 43rd Battalion had gained a footing on Bellevue
Spur, but were being driven off by the devastating fire,
and further exposed the right flank of the 4th C. M. R.
At 10.30 a.m. the situation was critical and one Company
of the 52nd Battalion which was in reserve, was sent in
to support the weakened 43rd. At noon, "A" Company
of the 52nd under Lieutenant C. P. O Kelly, M.C.,
successfully attacked the enemy s flank between the 4th
C. M. R. and the 43rd. He was followed by the Com
manding Officer of the 52nd., Lieut.-Colonel W. W.
Foster, D. S. O., with his B ! Company both going
forward and seizing the Spur. Many of the Battalion
were thrilled by the sight of these two officers leading
their men across the open in the thick of the fight and
accomplishing the impossible. The 4th C. M. R. in
maintaining its isolated position played an important
part in making possible the successful attack by the
gallant 52nd Battalion. And as General Lipsett said
in his farewell address to the Battalion in September
PASSCHENDAELE 81
1918, "At Passchendaele you made the hole through which
the 9th Brigade was able to pass through and capture
Belle vue Spur. v
The pressure was relieved on "A" Company which was
tenaciously holding its gains on the right flank. Lieu
tenant R. H. Warne was in command with a few survivors.
The company commander, Major Scott had been killed,
also Lieutenant D. C. Sims, and Lieutenant J. R. Myers
had been wounded. ; D : Company which had gone
ahead of "A" Company was commanded by Lieutenant
T. J. Rutherford, the only officer of the company left.
Captain Muirhead had been killed; Lieutenant A. W.
Deacon and Lieutenant H. C. Moore, wounded. By 2.30
p.m. Lieutenant Warne reported that a junction had been
effected with the 52nd Battalion and that a trench had
been dug and the line consolidated. He and Lieutenant
Deacon were awarded the M. C.
On the left the conditions were similar. :< C " Company
struggled against a most gruelling opposition, pushing
forward until the effectiveness of the force was reduced by
casualties. All the officers were hit; Lieutenant V. Eaton
and Lieutenant Shepherd were killed, and the company
commander Lieutenant Nesbitt and Lieutenant Wyatt
wounded. Major Hart passed on with his company gath
ering in the remnants of "C" Company which had no
officers. He sent a message by runner to Colonel Patter
son to send reinforcements to cover the left flank because
the Anson Battalion of the Royal Naval Division had not
been able to keep in touch and the left flank was " in the
air. : It was learned later that the sailors had lost all
their officers and were trying to overcome insurmountable
odds under a Sgt.-Major. They had side-slipped to the
left leaving a gap. In response to Major Hart s request
Colonel Patterson sent Lieutenant A. Clarke and Lieuten
ant L. G. Mills to report on the situation; both of these
officers had several unpleasant excursions to the front
line from Headquarters to get information. Eventually
platoons of the 1st C. M. R. were sent forward. Major
Hart swung his left flank to cover his position and at
8.30 a.m. started to dig-in and consolidate. He was in
82 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
touch with the companies on his right and the new line
was completed. Both flanks, however, were exposed
until the left flank was joined up and the 43rd and 52nd
Battalions had secured Bellevue Spur. The companies
maintained their forward position against terrific shelling
and small-arm fire until the flanks were secured about
2.30 p.m. and the line consolidated.
Oct. 26, At 11.30 a.m. companies of the 1st C. M. R. Battalion
had reported at Battalion Headquarters. Captain Regan
moved his "D" Company into the old support line and
"A" Company under Major Maxfield took over the old
front line allowing Major Greenwood to send forward the
remainder of his company to the new front line. Major
Maxfield got into touch with the Hood Battalion of the
Royal Naval Division and helped to improve the left
flank. The three companies of the 1st C. M. R. were
relieved in the line shortly after dusk by three companies
of the 2nd C. M. R. Battalion.
By the middle of the afternoon the whole Divisional
front and its flanks were established. The Battalion
remained in the position it had reached in the morning.
These positions were signalled to contact-aeroplanes by
waving helmets, since it was impossible to light the water-
soaked flares. By this time the battle seemed to be over
for both sides. There was spasmodic shelling during the
remainder of the day, and the line settled down ready for
counter-attacks which were anticipated. At dusk out
posts were established fifty yards apart and the same
distance in front of the line. At 10.00 p.m. one of the
posts on the left reported a body of troops gathering in the
vicinity of Source Trench five hundred yards to the east
of Wallemolen and on the Battalion s immediate left front.
Cool and calculating, Major Hart s men prepared to
receive them. Lewis guns were trained on them and the
men ordered to stand fast until the party was within
one hundred yards, then the command to fire was given.
Shooting thus over ragged rifle-sights resembled mus
ketry drill and the early training on the rifle-ranges.
This unusual reception so completely disorganized the
enemy that they withdrew leaving some dead and
PASSCHENDAELE 83
wounded. Sergeant Harding took out a patrol of ten
men and brought back two prisoners of the 73rd German
Regiment. The rest of the night was fairly quiet.
It is impossible to speak too highly of Major M. M.
Hart s part in this battle. He was recommended for
the D. S. O., and received a Bar to his M. C. In the
words of the official recommendation, "he set an example
of resourcefulness and presence of mind which was
undoubtedly in a large degree responsible for the success
of the operation. 1 Lieutenant B. D. Poyser, also of
"B : Company, ably assisted Major Hart and was
awarded the M. C.
The Battalion paid heavily for its part in the first stage
of the capture of Passchendaele ; an enormous sacrifice for
such little ground gained. There were seventeen casualties
among the officers; eight were killed and nine wounded.
There were only four untouched who were part of the
attacking troops and some of them had most uncanny
escapes. Three hundred and four other ranks were
killed, wounded or missing, or evacuated suffering from
exposure. The few hours of fighting accounted for half
the total strength of officers and a third of all the men.
Again the Battalion gave more than its share in man
power.
Six officers and fifteen N. C. O. s and men were decor
ated for various acts of devotion to duty. Ten men
were awarded the D. C. M. five of these were recom
mended by the Commanding Officer for the M. M. but
received the D. C. M.; six others received the M. M.
This was so unusual that it is mentioned here to empha
size the wonderful work done by the N. C. O s and men
and to show how much their efforts were appreciated
by the Corps. It was also rare to be given so many
D. C. M. s for one action, carrying as they do a gratuity.
On the other hand there were those who were recom
mended, but did not receive awards, and, as always,
courageous deeds went unnoticed or passed into oblivion
with the dead. There is one decoration which a regiment
always shares with the individual: it becomes part of
regimental history; the greatest honour the British
84 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Empire can bestow the Victoria Cross. Private T. W.
Holmes, a frail, delicate youth with a contagious smile
was recommended for and received this coveted award.
The action for which he was recommended was officially
worded as follows:
For great valour and bravery during the action of October 26th,
1917, near Passchendaele. When his Company was within fifty yards
of a pill-box and was held up and forced to take cover by two machine-
guns mounted nearby and by rifle fire, he, on his own initiative, and
single-handed, ran forward and threw a bomb, killing the crew and put
ting the guns out of action. He then returned to his companions,
secured another bomb and again under heavy fire ran forward alone
and threw the bomb into the entrance causing the nineteen occupants
to surrender.
While this concise description is sufficient for the time,
disposition and ultimate effect of the deed, it should be
amplified by personal reminiscences of the men who saw
it. "A" Company, which had followed "D" Company
into the attack on the right, had overtaken the leading
Company and both were intermingled and advancing
together when held up by a pill-box manned by two
machine-gun crews and reinforced by some twenty men
within the pill-box. Not only was half the Battalion held
up but also part of the 9th Brigade on the right. While
the men were taking cover in shell holes, Private Holmes,
on his own initiative, before those around him real
ized what he was about to do rushed forward and tossed
a bomb so accurately into the trench of the machine-
gun crew that they and their guns were put out of
action. He then returned to his companions for more
bombs, which by this time were getting scarce, but he
succeeded in getting one from Private Dunphy. Again
he dashed forward, this time going directly up to the
pill-box and threw his bomb into the entrance, where
it exploded; those who were not killed or wounded
came out and surrendered. Major Scott saw Private
Holmes go forward but did not know who he was. He
sent Private Hawley to find out Private Holmes s name
so that he could recommend him for his bravery, but
before he got back with the information, Major Scott was
killed. Fortunately there were others who saw him and
who also were anxious to have his courageous feat
Canadian Official C
Private T. W. Holmes, V.C.
PASSCHENDAELE 85
recognized. This was the Battalion s only V. C. There
were men who received their early training with the
Battalion or were seconded for duty with other units
who reflected credit on the Battalion. Of the many
examples the most outstanding was Corporal G. T.
Lyall, who was granted a commission and won the V. C.
with the 102nd Battalion C. E. F.
There were many others who did more than their mere
duty, but none would begrudge another mention of the
Chaplain, Captain W. H. Davis. As at Vimy and every
other action, so at Passchendaele this Padre exceeded
his duty by exposing himself unnecessarily. He went
forward with the men, mustering and organizing a
party of stretcher-bearers, gaining the admiration of
all the combatants by walking about in the open looking
for wounded, apparently oblivious of his danger. It was a
miracle that he lived to enter another action. His
coolness and unselfish thoughtfulness for the welfare of
others gained for him a very warm spot in the hearts of
all the men. One officer, who saw the Padre laboriously
coming toward him through a downpour of "crumps,"
asked him what he was doing walking around in the
open; his reply had its usual candour: "I was getting
anxious about you. " During the afternoon of the 26th
he so successfully controlled the stretcher-bearers and
set such a wonderful example that practically all the
wounded were collected.
One incident which illustrates the curious turn of
events of that day is not recorded in the Diary, but has
been gleaned from witnesses. It shows how rapidly a
situation could alter and throws some light on the curious
psychology of the real combatants. Late in the after
noon by common, uncommunicated consent, without
notification or sanction, both sides suddenly decided on a
temporary armistice to look after their wounded and dead.
It was one of those spontaneous things, arranged without
agreement. It just happened. It suited both sides.
Some think that the Germans were probably awed by the
unusual sight of Padre Davis with such a large party
nonchalantly walking about and as soon as they realized
86 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
?9\j wna t ne was doing, decided to do likewise. Suddenly
large numbers of Germans got out of their trenches and
commenced to search for their wounded. The idea was
mutual. When the Germans found a wounded Canadian
they would mark his position by sticking his rifle in the
mud and placing his helmet on it ; or carry him to a pill-box
which soon became a clearing station where the troops of
both sides foregathered and exchanged the wounded.
Since sunrise the fighting had been bitter ; each side trying
to create as much havoc as possible among the men whom
they were now trying to succour. It was a rational para
dox for the men in the line. But the unofficial truce did
not last long. Some young, enthusiastic forward-observ
ing officer of the gunners could not resist reporting the
existence of so many targets and soon the guns opened on
the weary missionaries who had to postpone their res
cuing.
Many of the wounded who have since recovered are
indebted to the care and skill of the Medical Officer
Major H. C. Davis. On one occasion a shell burst
beside the Dressing Station killing and wounding twelve
of the stretcher-bearers and patients. The Da vis s"
were a valuable combination to the Battalion ; one getting
the wounded rapidly to the Field Dressing Station and
the other at great personal risk evacuating them to
hospital. As a result of the courage and determination
of these two officers the area was cleared of all wounded
before handing over to the relieving battalion on the
following day. For their great work in this battle they
both received the M. C.
The Battalion took 175 un wounded and twenty -five
wounded prisoners in the one day s fighting. Two
officers were among them. Seven heavy and five light
machine-guns were captured. Apart from the success
which these figures infer, they indicate the magnitude of
the opposition.
Oct 27 The next day was comparatively quiet. There was
1917 considerable shelling but no other activity on the part of
the enemy. In the early morning at sunrise, Lance-
Corporal Spillsbury and four men were patrolling the
PASSCHENDAELE 87
front and brought in two prisoners who had lost their way.
During the day four -unwounded and sixteen wounded
prisoners were sent back. Numerous stretcher parties
were engaged all day bringing in the wounded who
remained. At 9.00 p.m. the Battalion was relieved by
the 2nd C. M. R. Battalion, moving back to the inter
mediate support trenches with Battalion Headquarters
at Capricorn Keep. In spite of the severe losses, the
Battalion handed over a strong and well-constructed
position.
Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig, on October 27th,
sent the following telegram to General Plumer, com
manding the Second Army:
The success gained by your troops yesterday under such conditions
is deserving of the highest praise. While all the troops did well and
contributed materially to the results achieved, the performance of the
3rd Canadian Division in particular was remarkably fine. The ground
gained is of high importance and I congratulate you and all under you
on the results of the great effort made.
The Battalion remained at Capricorn Keep for a day
and then moved back to California trench on the 29th Oct. 29,
and were settled in the same area in support as on October
22nd. Battalion Headquarters were again in Pommern
Castle. They remained there on the 30th, the day
chosen for the second stage of the attack on Passchen-
daele. The Battalion supplied parties to assist in remov
ing the wounded from the forward area to the 9th Can
adian Field Ambulance, and to carry munitions and
supplies to the forward area.
The attack on the 30th was very similar to that of the
26th. The 8th Brigade had the same frontage, with the
5th C. M. R. going into the attack. On the left of that
Battalion the Artists Rifles of the 63rd Imperial Division
replaced the Hood Battalion. On the right were the
49th Battalion and the P. P. C. L. I. of the 7th Brigade
which had relieved the 9th Brigade. The advance was
about the same distance as on the 26th under equal diffi
culties. These regiments like others in the Canadian
Corps maintained their shining reputation as assault
troops. The Third and Fourth Divisions captured, at
great sacrifice, the high ground from which the First and
88 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Second Divisions on November 6th took Passchendaele
and its famous ridge.
^ n October the 31st the Battalion moved to Tay Camp.
The men left California Trench at 8.30 a.m. and marched
to the Transport Lines where they picked up their packs
which had been left before going into the line. They
marched back into Ypres and entrained at 11.45 a.m. for
Abeele on the Belgian border, half-way between Pop-
eringhe and Steenvoorde. The Transport marched back
by Ypres, Poperinghe and Hillehoek. Tay Camp, the
destination, was just north of Hillehoek and as near
Poperinghe as Abeele but for some reason they detrained
at the latter and marched back. The Camp was pitched
in the same fields where the 4th C. M. R. had practised
for the Somme in the previous year. The Battalion went
into tents which were anything but comforting shelter
when night bombing was so popular; enemy aircraft was
particularly active around Poperinghe and the strictest
care was exercised to avoid identification at night. No
lights were allowed to be exposed which, in tents, meant
that darkness prevailed after night fall. For troops in
rest after such recent experiences, the nights were dreary
and uninteresting except for sleep which, with only canvas
for protection, was anything but tranquil.
After three days at Tay Camp they were shifted to
Shrine Camp, a mile or so west. Reinforcements began
to arrive and fresh kit was issued; leather and fur jerkins
were distributed in preparation for the winter. These
wind-breaking, ill-fitting jackets of goat-skin, were warm
but not smart. Most of them had been already cam
paigning on other backs. While at Shrine Camp Major-
General Lipsett and Brigadier-General Elmsley visited
the Camp; the Divisional Commander addressing the
Battalion complimented them on their behaviour on
October 26th. He said in part:
General Elmsley, Colonel Patterson, Officers, N. C. O. S and men
of the 4th C. M. R. Battalion; I wish to thank you very much for the
work you have done. Previous to our attack two Divisions had tried
without success to take the position which we secured. This is the
first time, as far as I know, that any particular body of troops have
been specially mentioned by the Commander-in-Chief.
PASSCHENDAELE
89
On November 7th the Battalion was moved to the
forward area. The men had had only one week of rest
and were still worn out, but the need was urgent and they
were ordered to Saville Camp near St. Jean, north-east of
Ypres. They were there five days providing large work
ing parties, under the orders of the C. R. E. of the First
Division, building roads up to Passchendaele and working
at Spree Dump, Kansas Cross and Abraham Heights.
They were back in the wet and the filth of that disagree
able area doing disagreeable work; most of the time
labouring under shell fire, soaking wet and with no chance
to dry their clothes at night because of the prohibition
against fires and lights. However, this boredom did not
last long. On the 13th they were ordered to the rear and
went back to Camp 30 at Brandhoek just south of
Poperinghe.
The Battalion never returned to Passchendaele or Ypres.
They left these historic places forever, without regrets.
Two of their greatest sacrifices had been made on this
soil. Their first baptism was received there, and now
they had wiped off an old score. The newer blood had
retaliated for the older, Passchendaele was a rebuke for
Sanctuary Wood. They left behind a battalion s strength
in the soil of Belgium, their share in the price that was
paid to protect the Channel Ports.

CHAPTER VII
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE
NOV. 1 FTER Passchendaele, with the exception of an
1917 \ attack by the Third Army at Cambrai in Nov-
/-A ember, 1917, the British ceased their offensive
, JL tactics and settled down for the winter to
prepare their defences for the German drive
which followed in the Spring, when the Central Powers,
freed from their Eastern fronts, threw their consoli
dated weight against the Allies. It was not until
August, 1918, after parrying the last thrust of the
Germans, that the British were able to resume the
offensive. During this hiatus the Canadian Corps re-
occupied the Vimy Sector but was not seriously engaged;
although, General Currie in his Interim Report on the
Canadian Corps operations during 1918 said "it was fully
expected that the German offensive would be directed
against this (Vimy Sector), the central part of the British
Front. ; This fear was entertained because a shallow
advance would paralyse the French collieries, while a
deeper penetration would threaten the main lateral lines
of communication. Fortunately, the main attack* did
not take place there and the Canadians were saved for
the counter offensive. They formed a part of that
potential force which lay dormant in a quiet part of
the line, holding long thinned portions, or training in
musketry and open-warfare as a unit of those latent
reserves whose dynamic energy was soon to be used in one
of the most audacious moves ever attempted in any war.
To read the regimental account of these times is to
picture a cheery Battalion in good spirits going in and
* The German Seventeenth Army on March 28th "was to capture the deci sive
heights east and north of Arras and the Sixth Army (the next day) was to pro long
the attack from about Lens and carry the high ground (Vimy Ridge) in that
area." (vide Ludendorff) . The attack on the 28th failed.

DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 91
out of quiet portions of the line with an occasional raid
and very few casualties. From the records they were
apparently oblivious of the steady march of serious
events going on to the south and north of them; the
only mention in the War Diary of any momentous
occurrence during this period was an entry on March 21st,
the first day of the German offensive that there were
"rumours of a great enemy offensive to the south. 1
The lack of information in the Diary, at this time,
regarding other than very personal details smacks of
that curious British trait of refusing to take seriously
the first indications of adverse circumstances.
The following summary of events of great moment
happening on all Fronts will explain the external situ
ation which had an indirect bearing on the history of
the Battalion. There was practically a stalemate on
the Western Front during the winter of 1917. This was
not the case on other Fronts; in November the Austria ns
were pressing the Italians on the Piave, Russia had
completely collapsed and definitely suspended hostilities
at the beginning of December; at the same time Roumania
had agreed to an armistice. Britain was the only Allied
Power having any success and that was in Palestine;
Jerusalem was taken on December 10th. This was the
only bright spot until the Italians stiffened and held.
February was uneventful.
In the meantime the Germans had mustered 192
Divisions and gathered all their forces for a final blow
against the British and French. On March 21st, 1918,
they struck at the Third and Fifth Armies, but chiefly
at the latter which joined the French on the right
of the British Line and where the enemy hoped to drive
a wedge and separate the two Armies. In ideal, foggy
weather they penetrated to considerable depth on the
Fifth Army front. On this day the Third Canadian
Division was just south of Lens on the Mericourt-Avion
sector and only heard the distant shelling. A week later
the Germans attacked astride the Scarpe between the
Third and First Armies both of which had Canadian
Divisions under their commands but which were not
92 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
directly engaged in this fighting. This attack in front of
Arras, to widen the salient to include Vimy Ridge and
the Lorette Spur, was repulsed.
On April 14th Marshal Foch was chosen Generalissimo
and from that time the two Armies interchanged Divis
ions to help each other stem the tides which followed.
On April 9th the Germans attacked the British on the
Lys, by the 14th Armentieres had fallen and the line was
almost to St. Venant and Bailleul; this salient was
widened subsequently to include Bailleul, Mont Kemmel
and Passchendaele. The Battalion while in reserve behind
St. Venant worked on the defences along La Bassee Canal
but was never involved in the fighting. The Corps
during this time extended its line to relieve Imperial
Divisions, and was holding from Lens south 35,000 yards
or approximately one-fifth of the total British Front.
Its line was stretched almost to the breaking point,
with huge salients on either flank and "although during
this period it did not have to repulse any German
attacks, it nevertheless played a part worthy of its
strength" by incessantly harrassing the enemy who gave
"many indications of nervous uncertainty".
The attack in the north had only been checked when
a third colossal drive took place on May 27th, this time
against the French IX Corps when the Germans cap
tured Chemin-des-Dames and Soissons, and in a few days
reached the Marne. The British, who had been rein
forced by French troops, reciprocated by placing
five divisions between Chemin-des-Dames and Rheims.
On July 9th a fourth blow, also against the French, met
with little success, and by the time the next and last
on July 15th, known as the Marne-Champagne drive,
had been launched, the Allies had the situation in hand
and their brilliant and unexpected counter-offensive
which started on July 18th on the Aisne and Marne
drove the Germans back. It was followed by the British
Fourth Army attack on August the 8th which was the
beginning of the triumphant march of the Last Hundred
Davs.
v
The Italians preceded their Allies in turning defeat
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 93
into victory. In the middle of June the Austrians were
apparently prosecuting a successful drive when the
Italians struck back on June 18th and by July 2nd the
Piave delta was cleared and the Austrians were retiring
into the barren Dolomites.
To return to the detailed movements of the Battalion Nov - i
when it left Passchendaele ; on November 13th, 1917, it
was ordered from Saville Camp to Camp 30 at Brand-
hoek, just east of Poperinghe. After five days it moved
through Haverskerque, to Enquin-les-Mines. This
charming little village nestled on the banks of the
Laquette River in rolling country, ten kilometres south
of Aire. It was out of the congested area, few troops
had been billeted there before and the novelty of their
presence was reflected in the generosity and hospitality
of the inhabitants. The Battalion spent a month in this
congenial environment training and refitting. Leave
was granted in unusually generous proportions; it was
welcome and needed. Over one hundred men had not
been on leave for fifteen months and over two hundred
had been a year without it. The Padre who was just
as active in billets as in the line established reading and
recreation rooms in two school houses and in the estam-
inet near the parish church.
During the training the Bombers were brought up to
strength and practised under Corporal Stephenson.
This N.C.O. showed a keen presence of mind on December
12th; a man, in throwing a live bomb from the practice-
pit did not clear the parapet and the bomb fell back
into the pit. The squad tried unsuccessfully to get out
and Cpl. Stephenson, seeing the confusion, leaped in and
threw out the bomb which exploded in the air. His
bravery undoubtedly saved his comrades.
An interesting incident which took place at Enquin-
les-Mines was the voting on the Canadian elections. By
Act of Parliament every person who enlisted in the
Canadian Expeditionary Force was entitled to vote on
the issue of selective conscription as proposed by the
Union Government. The polling was extended over the
first two weeks of December to give all the men in the
94 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
field an opportunity to vote. The Battalion voted on
December 3rd. The chief interest at first was not
political but rather in the uniqueness of voting while
engaged in a war. During the day the men s interest
was aroused by Lord Northcliffe s speech which appeared
in The Daily Mail and also by circulars of electioneering
propaganda, all of which inferred that without conscrip
tion the Canadian Corps would dwindle away for lack
of reinforcements and the men then engaged would
probably have their leave seriously curtailed. This last
effect was considered to be much too serious by those
men who had not been on leave for over a year. Sergeant-
Major Featherstonhaugh canvassed the billets with a
lantern and ration box which resulted in 645 votes being
cast.
Dec. is, On December the 18th the Battalion moved by easy
stages to the Loos-Hill 70 front. The first night they
stopped at Cantrainne, a kilometre east of Lillers and on
the next night at Fouquereuil three kilometres south of
Bailleul. The following day they were in Les Brebis. It
was a more peaceful town than in August when the
Battalion was last there. There were a great number
of civilians following their daily routine although only
5,000 yards behind the line. On the 21st the Battalion
moved into the trenches in front of Loos, and for the
next month was in and out of the line. The weather
was fine and cold with an occasional snowstorm and
one or two thaws, never sufficiently protracted to do
much damage to the trenches.
Dec. 25, Christmas and New Year s were spent in the trenches
1917 and in the cellars of the ruined village of Lens. And
while the rations were supplemented by parcels from
home and extra food and drink imported from the
canteen it was not until the men returned to billets at
Mazingarbe that the combined Christmas and New
Year s dinner was celebrated.
The following extract from the excellent Diary of
Major G. F. McFarland gives an intimate and vivid
picture of the night before Christmas:
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 95
On Christmas Eve little Clark, the Assistant- Adjutant, who had Jan.
been left at Transport came up to celebrate the occasion with us. He
started out about mid-night with the other Clarke from Battalion Head
quarters to visit the various companies and wish them the compliments
of the season. About 2.30 a.m. I went up to the Observation Post to see
if there was anything stirring. Away over in the Hun lines I could hear
male voices singing Christmas Carols very melodiously, while from
nearer at hand sounded the raucous tones of the two Clarkes and their
measured tread on the duck-boards of the communication trench, as
they returned to Battalion Headquarters singing: "Don t Blame Me!"
The contrast was rather ludicrous. Just about dawn one of our snipers
saw a Hun making his way overland from one trench to the other, evi
dently thinking the light was not yet good enough for rifle-fire. Our
fellow "drilled" him clean, and was heard to remark as he ejected the
empty shell: "Merry Christmas, Fritz, you ....!"
On January 7th according to Brigade operation orders
the 4th C. M. R. was detailed to raid the enemy s trenches
with the object of destroying machine-gun emplacements
and dug-outs, and securing prisoners. A party of
thirty was organized under Captain L. B. Bumstead to
carry out the raid. Lieutenant A. Clarke examined the
position in daylight on the afternoon of the 6th and
reported that he had gone along Humbug Sap to within
thirty yards of the enemy and found the sap filled with
heavy wire. As it was the intention of the raiding party
to proceed under cover of this sap it was decided to cut
through the wire as far as possible and demolish the
remainder by exploding a Bangalor torpedo. Duck-
boards were to be used if necessary to throw down on
any untouched portions to advance into the enemy s
lines. The 5th C. M. R. was to make a demonstration
on the right to distract the enemy and the artillery was
to arrange for a box-barrage to be put down at a given
signal.
The raiding party left the front line at 5.00 p.m. and
proceeded up Humbug Sap until they came to the wire.
They worked for three hours unobserved by the enemy
and at the end of that time had cut about ten yards of
the wire. The Bangalor Torpedo was then shoved along
under the wire but it w r as impossible to detonate it. The
96 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
raiders tried to extract the torpedo from the entangle
ment but it was too thoroughly embedded. An attempt
was then made to cross the broad stretch of wire by means
of bath-mats, but on the first attempt one of the party
fell into the wire and it took half an hour to extricate him.
While they were cutting this man out of the wire their
presence was discovered by the enemy, who threw bombs,
but without effect. It was then 10.00 p.m. They had
been away five hours, all luck was against them. In the
early morning of the 8th, three men went out to try and
rescue the torpedo but they found the enemy working
on his wire and they returned. It was then decided to
destroy the torpedo by Stokes mortars and after several
rounds Lieutenant W. B. Hastings, who was observing,
saw an explosion which he believed to be the torpedo
and at dawn an N.C.O. of the raiding party went out
and confirmed his opinion.
The Battalion was relieved by the 2nd C. M. R. on
the day after the raid and went into Reserve in the village
of Mazingarbe. The men had a general clean-up on
the 9th and prepared for the belated Yuletide. Colonel
Patterson was on leave in Paris and Major G. F. McFar-
land was acting Commanding Officer. The dinner was
held in the suitably decorated local cinema building, two
companies dining at one time. Captain H. Franks, the
Quartermaster, had previously journeyed to Enquin-les-
Mines and made copious purchases of food and drink.
They had Pantagruelian porkers with fresh vegetables,
Christmas pudding and maple sugar. The piece de
resistance was a delectable rum punch generously drunk
to the music of the new brass band which made its first
concert appearance during the dinner. Each member
was greeted with cheers and the slogan " Good old band! >:
On the last day of this rest, the 13th, the Battalion
held church parade in the Cinema Theatre. The English
papers, which arrived that morning, reported the award
of the Victoria Cross to Pte. Holmes. On coming out
of the Cinema after church the companies were lined up
and Major McFarland announced the award. Three
cheers and a tiger were given for Pte. Holmes, who was

Coming Out of the Line
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 97
on leave in England. It was a most popular award.
His exploit at Passchendaele had become a glorious
tradition in the Battalion.
The following day the men returned to the line and
experienced a sudden thaw with rain. The release of
the frost from the ground was so rapid that even the
well -constructed trenches started to crumble while the
narrow and less seasoned were almost impassable. Al
though the rain continued for some days the Battalion,
by extra shifts and hard work, soon had the defences
habitable and the communications open. Both sides
were so occupied with the disintegrating chalky soil that
there was little time to annoy each other. The only
incident of aggression on this tour happened in the early
morning of January 19th when Lieutenant A. Clarke Jan. 19,
with six of his scouts, cut their way through to the enemy s
trench. A German appeared and was shot with a re
volver by Pte. Haight. This called forth a volley of
bombs from the enemy. The party circled out of range
and again approached the wire, this time meeting several
of the enemy. Lieutenant A. Clarke shot the leader at
very close range and Lieutenant C. L. W. Nicholson who
was wounded bombed the remainder. The party, after
inflicting considerable damage, retired just before day
light.
The last week of January and the first two weeks of Feb.
February were spent at Houdain about ten miles west
of Les Brebis. The weather was clear and mild during
the first half of this rest but during the remainder
of the time it was less kind; the cold and wet which
followed cancelled many sports and Brigade manoeuvres.
The officers took advantage of the facilities offered by
the Hotel du Centre and had several delightful dinner
parties. Major G. F. McFarland, who was still acting
in the absence of Colonel Patterson, gave a dinner to
the Company Commanders, who went on to an excellent
concert given by a very talented troupe of the First Army
Concert Party. Another dinner was given at the Hotel du
Centre this time by the officers of the Battalion to Major
S. C. Xorsworthy, D.S.O. (Brigade Major), Major
98 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Hodgson, (Staff Captain "Q") and Captain Craig,
(Staff Captain "I"). These convivial gatherings added
to the brighter side of warfare.
Rumours of a return to the Vimy front were confirmed
Fe i9is 7 on February 17th and the Battalion moved through
Estree Cauchie and Neuville St. Vaast to the old Meri-
court Sector. They were back in the old stamping
ground that they knew better than any other part of
France. The poor little village of Neuville St. Vaast
had all but disappeared. The detritus from its ruins
had been used to repair the roads; occasionally under the
mud and plaster could be seen the red-tiled floor of a
room, or the bent and rusty frame of a baby s cot.
From it, as far as the eye could see, were new roads,
Nissen huts and horse-standings.
The Regiment was almost two months in this sector
doing duties very similar to those of the last tour at Loos ;
raids and patrolling when in the line, large working
parties when in support. The wide No-Man s-Land still
existed, but long grass and weeds blanketed the devast
ation of a year ago, the rank vegetation covering the old
shell-holes and rusted wire. The first two weeks were
cold and wet but withal it was a more pleasant front
than Hill 70. By the middle of March the weather turned
beautifully spring-like with no wind to clear the warm
haze which shrouded the landscape. During this period
two of the great German offensives were launched, the
first to the south and the second to the north of the Corps.
As previously stated, it was known that the enemy had
large concentrations of troops and it was not definitely
known where a new attack would develop but it was
expected that one would take place on the Canadian
front. During these anxious times the greatest effort was
put forth to stiffen the defences, build new lines of resis
tance and organize for a possible invasion of this front.
Continuous raids were carried out to get identifications
for the Intelligence Branch and at the same time to
harass the enemy.
Mar. 5, The Battalion had its share in these raiding operations.
At daybreak on March 5th, Lieutenant A. Clarke,
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 99
Lieutenant T. J. Rutherford, Cpl. Dougherty and Pte. Mar.
Bell, started on a daylight patrol. In the gap which
extended for six hundred yards between the Battalion
and the Imperial Division on the right, they suddenly
encountered an enemy patrol of one officer and six men.
It was still dark and the unexpected contact was a sur
prise to both patrols. The Germans leaped up and made
their way through the wire with Lieutenant Clarke s
patrol in pursuit, trying to cut off their retreat with what
they termed a "revolver barrage. 5 They shot one man
through the head and killed him, and took another pris
oner in a shell hole. They were brought back for iden
tification.
The next night at dusk Lieutenants A. Clarke and T. J. Mar. 6,
Rutherford with twelve other ranks, went out on another
patrol to follow up their last victory. They started out
the Acheville Road and had gone about 500 yards when
they met a large enemy patrol numbering at least sixty,
who were evidently waiting for them and had already
started to encircle them. Led by the officers, the little
patrol threw one volley of bombs and dashed to the left
to avoid a machine gun which was preparing to open on
them. They gave battle until they were in danger of
being cut off when they adroitly extricated themselves
and got support from the front line.
By March 10th the weather was mild and warm and the Mar. 10,
1 Q 1 ft
battle patrols became even more numerous and active.
The Battalion relieved the 1st C. M. R. in the front line
on the 14th and early the next morning, before it was
light, a patrol, under Lieutenants J. M. Dobie and T. J.
Rutherford, had an encounter on the Quarrie Road with
an enemy patrol of about the same size. Our patrol was
returning from No-Man s-Land when they clashed with
the enemy patrol which was outside the wire along the
Quarrie road. There followed a lively few minutes with the
result that two of the Battalion were slightly wounded
and Pte. O Shaughnessey was wounded and missing.
The Battalion patrol got the best of the argument, dis
persing the enemy. Two dead Germans were brought
in for identification.
100 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
While this was going on, the 5th C. M. R., on the left,
organized a large raiding party and captured fourteen
Germans; unfortunately Major Sneath, who had many
friends in the Battalion, was killed while leading the raid.
Major G. F. McFarland, Captain W. V. Sifton and one
platoon under Lieutenant R. H. Warne, attended the
funeral of Major Sneath and four men of the 4th C. M. R.
who were killed by a trench mortar shell. They were
buried in Thelus cemetery on the 17th of March.
The aerial activity was more noticeable and the monot
ony of the lengthening evenings was broken by admiring
the audacious airmen. One evening at tea-time in the
cramped quarters of Cubitt Camp, just to the east of
Neuville St. Vaast, a football game was interrupted by
the sudden appearance of a Hun scout-machine dropping
from a serene open sky. The "Archies" opened on him,
and the men tried to wing him with their rifles. He dived
gracefully at a captive-balloon buoyed over the camp.
A rapid "pop," "pop," "pop," a gushing "puff" and
the balloon was in flames. He calmly soared and dived
in succession on one at Souchez and another at Ablain
St. Nazaire repeating the feat. He swiftly veered away
and was out of sight before the gently-descending black
specks in the parachutes had floated to the ground.
This incident was not indicative of the enemy s ascend
ancy in the air. Our own planes were very active and
were continually delighting the troops by their obvious
predominance. Several enemy planes were seen shot
down during this tour and even the "Old Buses" which
patrolled and photographed the front, engaged in several
daring and successful encounters.
On one occasion a most spectacular sight was witnessed
by those who were watching with binoculars. One of
our captive-balloons was set on fire. Immediately the
occupant was seen swaying under his parachute and
descending gently toward the enemy s lines. An officer
of the Battalion, who was following the flight through
his field-glasses, saw the observer trying to release some
thing from his equipment. At first he imagined that
he was preparing to throw away his maps and papers
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 101
before he crossed into enemy territory, but instead, he
saw him raise his arm above his head and discharge his
revolver into the bulging parachute. Immediately, the
air resistance was reduced and he descended rapidly
within our own lines It was a most ingenious act of
bravery.
The Battalion had been thirty-two days in the line,
seventeen in the front line and fifteen in support without
rest or baths, when relieved by the 52nd Battalion on
the night of March 20th. By 4.30 a.m. the next morning Mar. 20,
the men were back in Hill s Camp at Neuville St. Vaast.
In spite of the long spell in the trenches the Battalion was
warned to provide large working parties for the forward
area that night. The men turned out cheerfully, for
the weather was perfect, a condition that conduced to
good spirits. This was on March 21st, a date which Mar. 21,
became historical. In the afternoon the Battalion heard
rumours of a German offensive but they knew nothing
of its dimensions; they could hear the continuous rumble
to the south, like distant thunder and knew that it
was no ordinary bombardment. The working parties
were paraded and ready to move off at 5.00 p.m. when
everything was suddenly cancelled and orders received
to be ready to relieve part of the 186th Imperial Infantry
Brigade.
Consequently on the night of the 23rd-24th the Bat- Mar - 23
talion took over from three companies of the 8th West
Yorks and two companies of the Duke of Wellington s in
and around the Railway embankment and Brierley Hill
Trench on the Arleux Sector. This was a temporary
move and lasted only a few days. By the 28th the
Battalion returned to Neuville St. Vaast and was under
half an hour s notice. By 12.25 p.m. orders were
received to occupy a line from Junction Redoubt to
Chanticleer Post. The men were back again in Cubitt
Camp for Easter Sunday on March 31st and had a
church parade, baths and a general clean-up. From
there they did the usual round of duties. There was
great activity all along the line in preparing new defences
for possible emergencies. Colonel Patterson took his
102 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
WD l e Battalion and worked on the construction of new
support trenches. The shelling and registering had
increased and an attack was expected.
April 5, When the Battalion went into the line from the 5th
to the llth, they left a quota of officers and men at the
Transport lines as a precautionary measure, so that, in case
of a sudden bombardment and an attack as at Sanctuary
Wood, the unit would not be wiped out. This was in
accordance with the Allied plan. This was really the
last tour the Unit made in the trenches on this front.
The good weather broke; it rained heavily and the
trenches were in a very bad state, becoming knee-deep
with mud. The Canadian Corps already on March 28th
had elongated its line to relieve Divisions of the First and
Third Armies and again on April llth the whole Canadian
Corps readjusted its front. The 8th Brigade moved to
the Hill 70 sector. The Battalion was relieved and
April 12, reached its billets at 3.00 a.m. on the 12th; but the men
were up again at 10.00 a.m. making preparations to move.
They marched to Territorial Siding on the Arras-Bethune
Road and entrained on the narrow-gauge railway.
After an uninterrupted journey on this miniature line,
they detrained at 1.00 a.m. on the 13th at Aix Noulette
and marched through Bully Grenay to Les Brebis where
they arrived at 4.00 p.m.
On the previous visit to Les Brebis they had been
astonished to find many civilians so near the Front.
Now these people were being evacuated by orders of
the French Government. M. Clemenceau had been
at Les Brebis the day before and personally issued
the proclamation that all the residents were to leave at
once. Here the Battalion witnessed one of those sad
sights, common enough in 1914 on the retreat from
Mons, but rare since that time. The exodus had started
at 5.00 a.m. on April 2nd. All during the day sombre-faced
women and old men struggled with the packing and
loading of their effects. Nearly seven thousand people,
without the help of their strong men who were in the
fighting-line elsewhere, were carrying bundles of bedding,
dishes, kitchen utensils and garden tools. Women pushed
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 103
wheelbarrows, children trundled baby carriages and many
an old man dragged a heavy two-wheeled cart sometimes
with the aid of a mangy cur. The larger pieces had to
be left behind unless prosperity had provided a suitable
vehicle. In the early morning light with gun-flashes
vying with the rising sun it was pitiful to witness weeping
women borne down and hampered by little children
dragging at their skirts. Most of these courageous
people had cleared the town by the next day. They
took their way westward, possibly to friends or relatives
in other parts, or to billets prepared by the Government.
French motor-lorries helped to shift their chattels, also
gendarmerie arrived to assist, and to picket the town. In
two days all the civilians were gone, except those em
ployed at the mines as caretakers.
This evacuation followed the German offensive on April 9,
April 9th against the British on the Lys in front of
Armentieres. On the day the Battalion reached Les
Brebis this great battle, raging to the north of them, was
at its height. Armentieres had fallen, the enemy had
crossed the Lys and was pressing on toward the Forest
of Nieppe and St. Venant. This was one of the notably
British days in the war. And as in other crises in former
wars on land and sea there came down to the men from
the Commander-in-Chief, concise words, peculiarly Brit
ish, telling them to put their backs to the wall.
On the 17th the Battalion received orders to take over Ap , r JL 17>
the left sub-section of the front line in front of Hill 70.
Owing to the hostile operations north of La Bassee the
dispositions of the companies were altered from the
ordinary routine, so they went in under a different organ
ization to what they had when they had occupied this
section in the previous January. A special defence,
known as the Blue Line, had been constructed and the
forward troops were under orders in case of a heavy bom
bardment and impending attack to retire to this line.
The Battalion relieved the 2nd C. M. R; three companies
in the front line and a fourth in support with one platoon
with the Commanding officer at Battalion Headquarters
and the remainder in the cellars of Loos. On this day
104 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
the Battalion learned that the British had been forced to
retire from Passchendaele.
Almost at once Colonel Patterson was informed by
the Brigade that it would be necessary to secure identi
fications by a raid. Captain L. B. Bumstead, command
ing "C company and Lieutenant G. Heighington of
the same company, volunteered. There were to be
raids by other Battalions at the same time. Captain
Bumstead chose a party of sixty men and prepared plans
to raid the enemy at Humbug Sap. During the day of
April 21st he outfitted his men with bombs, flares, pistols,
wire-cutters and other necessary equipment and moved
in the evening from Tosh Alley and Loos Trench to
quarters in the front line. Major W. V. Sifton and
Lieutenant G. F. MacDuff established an advanced
Battalion Headquarters in a dugout in the front line in
Hugo Trench to the left of Humbug Sap. Major H. C.
Davis, the Medical Officer and Captain W. H. Davis,
the Padre, took up a position in an advanced dressing
station in the front line. At 11.27 p.m. gold and silver
rain-rockets were fired from the Fosse at Loos and three
minutes later the 18 Pounders, 4.5 s and 6 inch Howitzers,
opened a lively bombardment on the Brigade sector;
presumably as a retaliation for the heavy shelling but
in reality to disturb the enemy s defences.
April 22, At 1.30 a.m. on the 22nd, the barrage opened and as
there were other raids in progress it made an imposing
"shoot. " Three minutes later the raiding party, which
was divided, went forward. Both sections encountered
wire and it took nearly fifteen minutes to cut gaps and
get through. The left party under Captain Bumstead
was at once faced by a machine-gun which was encircled,
the crew of four killed and the gun captured. This
party established : blocks" and proceeded to mop up
the trenches. The enemy had fled down his communi
cation trenches and only two wounded prisoners were
found, one in a dugout and one in a cement pill-box. The
right party under Lieutenant Heighington proceeded to the
corner of a wood where they found a vacated bombing
post; continuing they discovered a " Pineapple " dump un-
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 105
tended and the granatenwerfer gone. A little further
there was a machine-gun mounted at the entrance to a
dugout. Half the crew fled over-land, the remainder
taking shelter in the dugout in which others had taken
refuge. The party flung stick-bombs down the entrance
wounding one German who gave himself up. The rest
would not come out and a gas bomb was hurled down
the opening; they still refused to surrender so Lieutenant
Heighington flung in enough Mills bombs to destroy the
dug-out.
The raiding parties ha;d been gone over an hour when
the green-red-green flare was fired as a signal to withdraw.
One prisoner had the misfortune to succumb before the
party got clear of the enemy lines. One un wounded
prisoner of the 190th I.R. 2nd Ersatz Battalion was
captured and two machine guns. Seven of the enemy
are known to have been killed and it was estimated that
at least forty were trapped in the deep dugout. The
Battalion had four men wounded and the great misfor
tune to lose Sgt. Boyce who died of wounds at the dressing
station. Captain Bumstead and Lieutenant Heighing
ton were awarded the Military Cross.
On the 29th word came that the Unit would be relieved April 29,
by an Imperial Battalion and the next day officers of the
7th Northamptons, who had been in the fighting on the
Fifth Army front came to look over the ground. The First,
Third and Fourth Canadian Divisions were relieved and
were now assembling with other reserves, in prevision of
further attacks by the enemy, in General Headquarters
Reserve, First Army Area. On May 2nd the Battalion May 2
marched back to Les Brebis and was transported by bus
to Monchy Breton, marching from there to Magnicourt, a
little village on the La we river about ten kilometres south
of Houdain. It was a pleasant place in the full bloom of
spring, a happy change; for they had been steadily in
the forward area since the middle of February, except for
a few days in Les Brebis. They were in wonderful
spirits and at once began to make themselves smart
again. The band played at Guard Mounting, which
was done in style, and all the old formalities were revived.
106 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
May was a series of marches, musketry, training and
changing billets. The men were only a few days at
Magnicourt. On the 5th there was a move to Rely, on
the 9th to Ham-en-Artois in the St. Venant area, from
where they did three days musketry at Fontes. On
the 21st, they went into bivouacs near Busnes just south
of St. Venant. Although the men had been in some
of the finest billets in France they were not disap
pointed with their bivouacs. They had small brown
: bivvy" covers pitched in the field of a farm house and the
officers in the orchard. The weather was beautiful; the
days were warm and the nights balmy. The men bathed
in the little stream behind the farm when not working
on the defences of La Bassee canal. Baseball was revived
and after getting into shape by inter-company games,
the Battalion baseball team, with 200 supporters,
went to Ham-en-Artois and defeated the 1st C. M. R.
The Baseball "operation orders issued by Corporal
Monk and Private Gorman of the Orderly Room staff
were a source of great amusement and eagerly looked
forward to by the men.
At the end of the month came a march of fifteen miles
westward in the heat of a bright warm day, and the Bat
talion was again in Enquin-les-Mines which was consid
ered almost as home. The men had gone there from
Passchendaele and chance had brought them back. The
village was enbowered in foliage and decked in its summer
garb, and of all billets the men liked these the best.
June They spent the greater part of June there, practising
manoeuvres with the rest of the Brigade. They used the
First Army special manoeuvre region, known as the
Bomy Area, and had great difficulty in keeping within
the law respecting the damaging of crops and other
things, although it was impressed upon everyone that
claims for damage had to be paid by the unfortunate
British tax-payer. There were a great many recreations
of all kinds which developed into Brigade and finally
Divisional sports. At the Brigade Field Day, on the
18th, the Battalion won the Baseball Championship.
1918 June 2nd being the Anniversary of Sanctuary Wood and
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 107
probably the most fateful day in the history of the 4th
C. M. R., a church service was held and 500 men attended.
Captain Holman of the 1st C. M. R., recalled in the most
vivid language, the story of the "originals" who were
reduced in a few hours from 700 to 70 men. The Band
played "Abide with Me" while the men stood to atten
tion. A few were present who had been at Sanctuary
Wood and for this handful, especially, it was a most
impressive ceremony.
Everyone was very pleased to find in Battalion orders June 8,
on the 8th, that Lieutenant A. Clarke had been awarded
the Military Cross, and Sgt. F. Lyons, Sgt. W. Older
and Pte. S. T. Foster, the Distinguished Conduct Medal.
During this time an international enemy made its
appearance. At first it was a great mystery and even
to the Medical profession it was known as P.U.O. (Py-
rexia Unknown Origin). It was also expressed as Span
ish "Flu" and originally supposed to be another German
atrocity introduced through Spain but, fortunately, the
enemy also had it. It developed into the well-known
Influenza, and was most serious for all the Armies.
Their man-strength was reduced enormously. In the
Battalion, at the first indication of the epidemic, seventy
men went sick. Manoeuvres and sports had to be
cancelled on account of the depleted ranks.
The Second Canadian Division had been in the line
under the VI Corps, Third Army, Neuville Vitasse Sector,
south of Arras, since March 28th. The Third Division
was ordered to relieve it. Consequently training was
suspended on June 25th and the Battalion moved south. June 25,
They went by train from Aire to Savy where they
detrained and marched to Manin, a little village near
Avesnes-le Comte, behind Arras. The Battalion passed
through this district on the march from the Somme to
Vimy. It had two chateaux, reminders of the Royalist
regime, where the whole Battalion was able to billet
either in them or in their surrounding buildings. On the
29th they marched to Bretencourt, settling in Nissen
huts for the night, and w r ent into the support trenches
of the Mercatel sector on the night of the 30th, relieving "
108 4 T H CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
1918 ^ e 25th Canadian Infantry Battalion and becoming part
of the VI Corps.
Mercatel was a village five miles south of Arras on the
Arras-Bapaume Road. Prior to the Battle of Arras in
the spring of 1917, it was just within the German lines
but when the enemy was pushed back to the Hindenburg
Line this area was built up with hutments and other
temporary shelters. The German counter-drive in 1918
brought the line back but not as far as its original location.
The foe was stopped on the other side of Mercatel and
the line ran through former British camps. Consequently
in the rather wide No-Man s-Land were standing in a
more or less dilapidated condition Nissen and Adrian
huts which had been used as rest billets, Y. M. C. A. huts
or Cinema buildings. The front was quiet, the weather
good and there was plenty of material lying about as
salvage to improve the " bivvys" and "funk-holes." The
men were in battle order without great-coats or blankets,
but the lack of external protection was counteracted by
the renewal of the rum ration, a less cumbersome, and
more effective antidote for the cold. The Battalion
spent the first three weeks of July in this area; two
weeks in support and in the line and the last week at
Wailly where the men billeted in the mid-summer heat
under the trees of Waillv Wood. The rear Details were
organized into "Last Ditchers" and practiced manning
a defence line known as the Purple Line. On the 4th
Captain Steer took over ; D : Company from Captain
L. G. Mills, who returned to Canada.
An act which took unusual courage, occurred on the
July 10, morning of July 10th after a party of "B" Company had
returned from patrolling the front. They were standing
in the trench having the usual "pow-wow" when Pte. F.
Wilson who had been on the patrol, in trying to remove
a Mills Bomb from his pocket, released the pin igniting
the time-fuse. He realized that the bomb would explode
before he could get it out, so with great coolness and
presence of mind, he turned the bomb away from his
comrades and moved down the trench. Before he could
extract it the bomb detonated, mortally wounding him
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 109
but none of the others were touched. Pte. Wilson s
heroism and quick thinking saved the lives of his com
rades.
Only one large aggressive movement was made by the
Battalion in July and that was a carefully planned raid
on the 13th. There had been many efforts by strong July 13,
patrols to get identifications but the enemy seemed to
have adopted a policy of retiring from his posts and
warning the main body as soon as he suspected a raid.
On the 12th Lieutenants T. J. Rutherford and A. Cam
eron, with fifteen other ranks, made a special recon
naissance for the purpose of securing identifications.
They rushed a post but found only some rifles, respir
ators, and other equipment; the enemy had vacated as
usual. The Brigade wanted positive identification of
the regiment opposite and issued orders for a raid by
the 1st and 4th C. M. R. on the night of the 13th.
There was to be an artillery demonstration on the Neuville
Vitasse sector to the north and the raid was to be carried
out in stealth to the south. The 4th C. M. R. was
ordered to organize two parties. Major W. V. Sifton,
Lieutenant G. Hey worth and twenty-four men, with a
covering party of sixteen men under Lieutenant F. W.
Rous, formed the left party. Lieutenants T. J. Ruther
ford and A. Cameron and thirty men formed the right
party. At the last moment the plans were upset by the
postponement of the artillery "shoot" to a later hour
and the raid was attempted without the counteracting as
sistance of the guns. The right party left the lines at
dusk and proceeded up a road a short distance where they
waited for half an hour and then went forward and recon
noitred one of the posts to be raided. They surrounded
it and found it deserted, signs of very recent occupation
were evident; rifles, ammunition, cylindrical stick bombs
and Pineapple" bombs were found. The left party
took two Lewis Guns and moved together to their objec
tives reconnoitring Myrtle trench and Myrtle Sap on the
way. They soon ran into heavy bands of "concertina"
wire. The party split up into three, Lieutenant Rous
and his men with the two Lewis Guns were left as a cover-
110 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
ing party and the remainder divided, half going with
Major Sifton along the left of the road and the other
half under Lieutenant Hey worth, on the right. Both
parties cut through three belts of wire, investigated
shelters in a sunken road and found them unoccupied.
Finally Lieutenant Heyworth located an enemy post and
was preparing to rush it when he was engaged with
heavy machine-gun fire and rifle grenades. Major Sifton
immediately went to his assistance and together they
rushed the post but the enemy immediately withdrew to
gather reinforcements. Returning in numbers the Ger
mans counter-attacked under cover of heavy machine-
gun fire from both flanks. All the elements of stealth
were removed, the whole front was awakened so the
party withdrew. Lieutenant Heyworth was wounded
while he and Cpl. Goheen were endeavoring to carry
back the dead body of Pte. Brock.
The Germans had ceased their activities on this front
and had turned their attention to the French. The
former had made their first attack in May (when the
Battalion was at Busnes), a second in June and at this
July 15, time (July 15th) were beginning their last great effort
the Marne-Champagne drive. Three days afterwards
the French opened the remarkable counter-offensive of
the Allies which was the beginning of the end.
The men expected to go into the line at Neuville
Vitasse from Wailly Wood. Instead they moved to Etrun,
the village from which they first went to the Vimy front.
July 23, They arrived on July 23rd and two days later went to
Cliff Camp, remaining there for three days providing
working parties and doing musketry at Bray. On the
27th they turned out 500 strong under Major G. F. Mc-
Farland\o dig trenches. It rained all day and as they
were doing one of those "task" jobs they returned at
noon soaked to the skin. A ;< task" usually meant
digging a certain length of trench per man depending on
the depth, width and nature of the soil. It was rarely
a popular job, especially if laid-otit and supervised by a
July 28, Sapper Sergeant. The 28th was a Sunday, delightfully
clear and warm and everyone was having a sun-bath
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 111
after the drenching of the day before. They were pre-
pared for a repeat order for a large working party when
everything was cancelled and they were warned by tele
phone to prepare to move the next day to an unknown
destination. This resulted in the concocting of all kinds
of rumours, of a move south, or north, or even to Russia.
THE STRATEGIC TRAIN
For the next ten days, July 29th to August 7th, the
Battalion played a most interesting role in the execution
of the general scheme preparatory to the British offensive
on August 8th. The Battalion was one* of the pawns used
in the opening moves of that great secret game and was
cleverly manoeuvred to deceive the enemy before employ
ing the larger pieces to check-mate him. The Battalion
was sent to Mont Kemmel, on a mission of deception,
before joining the Canadian Corps and General Rawlinson s
Fourth Army at Amiens for that wonderful counter-
offensive so brilliantly conceived by the Higher Command.
It was hoped that their presence on this new sector would
lead the Germans to suppose that all the Canadians were
there, throwing them off the scent of the real movement
of the Corps. They proceeded north as nobody s child,
under mysterious orders and after three days in the
trenches were rushed south again by a circuitous route
to Amiens rejoining the Corps just in time to synchronize
with the surprise attack which opened the Last Hundred
Days.
The first intimation the Battalion had of this myster
ious move came from the Brigade on July 29th, on a pink
signal slip ordering them to move from Cliff Camp to
Acq and entrain at 4.00 p.m. "for a destination not yet
notified. " After they had departed they were told that
their destination was Arneke and that they were moving
on a "Strategic Train. 1 They had never heard of this
kind of train and its ambiguous name did not enlighten
them. The train went via St. Pol, Aire and Hazebroiick
* The 27th Battalion, two C. C. S s, and the Wireless and Power Buzzer
sections also moved to the same area.
112 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
July much faster than most troop trains, arriving at Arneke,
five miles northwest of Cassel at midnight.
The Battalion was met by an R. T. O. and a
Town Major, both rather junior officers, who did not
impress those who had to confer with them. Colonel
Patterson was given a two-coloured map and the free
dom of the area, which he found to be a field. How
ever, it belonged to a kindly farmer who turned out in
the middle of the night, offered his barn to the officers
and helped in stowing away everyone for the night.
The following day at noon the Battalion left this tem
porary camp and marched in oppressive heat to a tented
area at St. Eloi, near Abeele. The men s packs had been
left behind and were brought on by lorry, so the unit
marched light through Cassel and Steenvoorde. Many
of the inhabitants searched in vain for familiar faces.
A few of the older members of the Battalion were seen
to nod or wave or give some word in passing concerning
those comrades who were no longer in the ranks. The
Battalion came under orders of the 41st Division, com
manded by Sir Sydney Lawford, moved into a new camp
Aug. i, on the 31st, and on August 1st marched from the camp
near Abeele through Reninghelst and into the line on the
La Clytte sector taking over from the 15th Hampshires.
"B" Company was in the front line, and "A" : C and
"D" in support. The line consisted mainly of out-posts
hurriedly made during the rear-guard action against the
Germans on the Lys. Very little work had been done
in consolidating as practically all movement was ob
served from Kemmel Hill which was in the hands of the
Germans.
Aug. 2, Rain came on the second day in the line. The living
quarters were bad, and this fact combined with a rumour
that another move was in prospect dampened the good
spirit of the men. Patrols were active at night in No-
Man s-Land where there were old Nissen Huts and former
habitations as on the Mercatel sector. Lieutenants J.
C. Coxford and W. A. MacLachlan, with an artillery
liaison officer, went out to investigate a rumour that
there were a number of abandoned Field Guns in Name-
DURING THE LAST GERMAN OFFENSIVE 113
less Farm. In a hedge they found four 18-Pounders,
two of them new, one having been passed by Ordnance as
late as April of the same year. The Division was notified,
with an offer to help in man-handling them in, but
nothing was done.
On the next morning at 6.00 o clock a shell struck " B "
Company s Headquarters killing Captain T. W. E. Dixon,
M.C., M.M., and wounding Captain B. D. Poyser, M.C.,
Second-in-Command of the Company. Captain Dixon was
one of the most popular officers in the Regiment. He
had been with it since its inception and had risen from
the ranks to command a company and had been through
all the vicissitudes of the Battalion. When the Battalion
was relieved early the next morning, a squad of Captain
Dixon s old scouts volunteered to carry out his body.
They got back to billets in the Wippenhoek area before
dawn and at 8.00 a.m. a funeral service was held in
Wippenhoek cemetery. The pipers played "The Flow
ers of the Forest" for the lament and the bugles sounded
The Last Post. : Thus the Battalion paid hasty tribute
to an officer and a gentleman.
Immediately afterwards, the Unit pushed on to the Aug. 4,
main road west of Poperinghe where forty lorries were
waiting to transport them across to Nieurlet, where
they arrived at noon and turned in for a well deserved
sleep. Reveille was sounded at midnight and by 2.00
a.m. they were moving in single file over a duck-board
track across the marshes to St. Omer where they were
loaded into thirty box cars, seventeen flat cars and one
coach for the officers. They pulled out at 4.00 a.m.
before it was light and were never seen again in that part
of the country.
The train made a very fast journey to Boulogne, turned
south to Abbeville, followed the Somme to Amiens and at
2.00 p.m. on the 6th the Battalion detrained at Saleux, Aug. 6,
about six miles south-west of Amiens. In ten hours the
whole unit was in an entirely new theatre.
After resting at Saleux during the afternoon of the 6th,
the men moved off at 8.30 p.m. in a heavy rain, going over
the hills through Dury and St. Fuscien and down into
8

1918
Boves, seven miles south-east of Amiens. By mid
night they had arrived about three miles outside the town
but they ran into such a jam of traffic that a period of
five hours was occupied in getting through to their billets.
Boves, a small village, lying astride the river Avre
seemed dead in the daytime, but at night it was the
centre of seething activity. Soon after twilight, from hid
den crannies came creeping tractors, lumbering tanks,
huge guns, thousands of waggons and innumerable limbers,
all preparing to move forward, towards the front. Out
of the houses poured troops who formed up wherever
they could find a space. Drivers who had been cleaning
and oiling their harness during the day in their billets,
were limbering-up their teams. Lorry drivers were
tinkering at their engines. No one would recognize the
innocent little place of the day time.
The Battalion entered this orderly confusion on the
night of the 7th and moved up to its assembly posi
tions preparatory to the great British battle which was
to commence at sunrise in the morning.
CHAPTER VIII
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS
"> ROM the commencement of the British counter-off en- Aug.
A sive to the Armistice became known as The Last
Hundred Days. They were the days that every arm
of the Service had been anticipating for four long
years ; glorious, wonderful days ; days full of action,
and action which gave results. They were days of real
advancing, open fighting, big manoeuvres, book-warfare.
And the Battalion had its share of the Canadian Corps s
lion s share; they were always with the vanguard of the most
advanced army, starting at Amiens and finishing at Mons.
After almost four years of stationary warfare and colossal
struggles, after the experiences gained from the diminu
tive results of battles organized and prepared and carried
out on a titanic scale, the story of the final blow of the
Allies and its consequences reads like fiction. No one
expected the British Army to rise so suddenly from all
it had gone through since March and strike a blow which
brought, as Ludendorff said, "the black day of the
German Army. :
The following resume of the British battles and their
effects during The Last Hundred Days gives a broad
view of the whole front and will show in a general way
the tactical place those actions, in which the Battalion
was engaged, took in the British strategy. The Battle
of Amiens was the first British counter-stroke after four
months on the defensive. It commenced on August 8th
and in a few days disengaged Amiens and freed the Paris-
Amie is railway. The attack was then transferred a
little north to the Battle of Bapaume which, turning the
flank of the German positions on the Somme, compelled
them to withdraw to the east bank of the river. Their new
positions were then turned from the north by the Battle
115
116 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
of Arras in which the Battalion participated and which
started a few days later on August 26th breaking the
Drocourt-Queant line, forcing the enemy to fall back on
the outer defences of the Hindenburg Line. As a direct
result of these battles the Lys Salient was evacuated by
the enemy, Lens was regained and the Hazebrouck and
other important railways freed. Then came the Battle
of Epehy breaking through the outer Hindenburg
defences and preparing the way for the attack on the main
line on the Cambrai-St. Quentin front. The Battle for
Cambrai started September 27th and the Battalion
entered the town with the first troops on October 9th.
The last and strongest of the enemy s prepared positions
was taken, opening the way to a war of even greater
movement and an advance on the German main lines of
communication. At the same time further north in the
last Battle of Ypres the enemy was driven back so far
that his positions on the Belgian Coast were endangered.
This success w T as extended by the Battle of Courtrai com
mencing on October 14th, which widened and deepened
the salient and resulted in the capture of the town. This
series of battles north and south had as its immediate
result, the evacuation of Laon and the retreat of the
enemy to the Aisne, the Selle and the Scheldt. He was
driven from this line in the Battle of the Selle and dealt
a final blow at Maubeuge which broke his last important
lateral communications, turned his positions on the
Scheldt and forced him to retreat rapidly from Courtrai.
This victory completed the great strategical aim of the
Allies by dividing, in effect, the enemy s forces into two
parts, one on each side of the great natural barrier of the
Ardennes. The pursuit of the beaten foe all along the
line was stopped only by the Armistice.
The Battalion had an active interest in practically all
these big battles. Its general history was bound up with
that of the Canadian Corps, which was hurled along with
General Sir H. S. Rawlinson s Fourth Army into the Battle
of Amiens, then sent north into the First Army of General
Sir H. S. Horne and the Battle of Arras, swinging into the
Battle of Cambrai and then north between Douai and
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 117
Valenciennes and joining in the triumphant march on Mons.
This period of The Last Hundred Days has been divided
into four divisions and will be related in greater detail
under the following headings ; Amiens, Arras, Cambrai and
The Final Advance.
AMIENS
The Battle of Amiens was a joint attack by the French
First Armv and General Rawlinson s Fourth Army.
v */
The Canadian Corps was transferred to the Fourth
Army a few days prior to the attack to be used as assault
troops, fighting between the Australian Corps and the
French XXXI Corps. They were the spearhead of the
attack against the nose of the salient created by the
German offensive in March. As a result of the success
of the Allied counter-offensive on July 28th Marshal
Foch enlarged the operations from those previously
conceived, to include the complete reduction of the
salient. The original intention was merely to relieve the
pressure on the Amiens-Paris railway. It was decided
to attack without the usual preliminary bombardment
and to rely upon the element of surprise, using tanks,
motor machine-gun units, cavalry and every mobile unit
to overrun the enemy the first day to a depth of 14,000
yards in the direction of Ham and to push forward to
the Roye-Chaulnes line with the least possible delay.
It was one of the best-kept secrets of the war, officers of
the highest rank on Corps staffs only being told. All sorts
of expedients were employed to deceive both the enemy
and our own men ; for example General Currie made com
plete preparations for an attack on Orange Hill in front of
Arras; the Tanks were concentrated at St. Pol; the 4th
C. M. R. were sent to Mont Kemmel; fake radio mes
sages, which the enemy could decipher, were released.
This deception and secrecy was maintained to the last.
Troops were rushed, at the eleventh hour, under cover
of night into the battle assembly-areas, (the Battalion
relieved another unit only two hours before zero).
Fleets of Whippet Tanks stealthily crept into position
while bombing planes drownedjtheir noise. Guns of all
118 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
calibres were hauled into emplacements, camouflaged
and then waited for zero hour before firing.
The Canadian Corps Front extended from the south
easterly outskirts of Villers-Bretonneux, crossing the
River Luce about 800 yards north-east of Hourges and
passed through the western portion of Hangard Wood.
The southerly boundary was the Amiens-Roye road in
liaison with the French First Army; the northerly boun
dary, the Amiens-Chaulnes Railway in liaison with the
Australian Corps. The Second, First and Third Can
adian Divisions were in line from north to south; the
Fourth Canadian, Thirty-Second* Imperial and Third
Cavalry Divisions were in Corps Reserve. Of the Third
Canadian Division the 9th Brigade led in the attack,
followed by the 7th and 8th Brigades, one leap-frogging
through the other. The 4th C. M. R. was not engaged
in the fighting the first day, but followed in the wake of
the forward movement until the second day when it
attacked along the Amiens-Roye Road, on the southern
boundary, taking Folies.
To return to the particular; the Battalion rejoined
the Corps on August 6th at Boves, and on the night of
Aug. 7, the 7th started at 8.30 p.m. and got to its first assembly
position at 11.20 p.m. in support of the force attacking
along the north shore of the River Luce. The 1st and
2nd C. M. R. were to launch the attack of the 8th Brig
ade; the 1st C. M. R. was to be responsible for the
capture of Hangard Village and the defences of its
easterly outskirts, the 2nd C. M. R. to pass through,
capturing the ground further east and assist the 9th
and 7th Brigades by attacking Demuin.
The Battalion remained during the night of the 7th in its
assembly position near Gentelles. At 4.20 a.m. on August
Aug. s, 8th, the artillery began a hurricane bombardment followed
by a rolling barrage. At 6.20 the Battalion started to move
forward in single file through a heavy ground-mist to
the second assembly position in a deep chalky ravine.
They arrived at 8.00 a.m. with practically no retaliation
* The 32nd Division came under the Canadian Corps only on the night of
August 9th-10th.
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 119
from the enemy and by that time scores of German
prisoners were passing to the rear. Information started
to dribble through and it was soon learned that the
attack was an absolute surprise and a tremendous success.
The 1st C. M R. had taken Hangard and the 2nd
C. M. R. was advancing on Demuin. At 9.00 a.m. a
message was received from Brigade stating that all
objectives had been taken and that the 2nd C. M. R.
had crossed a bridge over the Luce and entered Demuin
with very few casualites. By 11.00 a.m. the fog had
lifted and prisoners were pouring back. Everything was
quiet, hardly a gun was firing ; a howitzer which had been
bellowing all morning in the ravine beside the battalion
was being pulled out and moved forward. The captive
balloons had been brought up and one was floating
directly over the Battalion. Everything that could not
reach the enemy was moving forward; the highways and
byways were again crammed. The Battalion joined the
pursuing multitude at 3.00 p.m. and marched to a new ren
dezvous of the Brigade south-east of Hangard in the neigh
borhood of Demuin where they bivouacked for the night.
At 2.00 o clock on the morning of the 9th a message Au &- g >
was received that the 8th Brigade would form the advance
guard of a tactical march of the 3rd Division down the
Roye Road to establish definite touch with the enemy.
The Battalion fell in at 8.00 a.m. preparatory to the
march, but the order was cancelled, and the Unit was
instructed to assemble with the Brigade in a wood south
east of Demuin. Marching north-east along the Moreuil-
Demuin Road through Demuin and out along the
Mezieres Road, they received new orders; on the cap
ture of le Quesnel, the Brigade would advance, the
4th C. M. R. would pass through the 75th Battalion and
take the village of Folies, and the 5th C. M. R., Bouchoir.
Colonel Patterson explained the situation to his Company
commanders and ordered "A" Company (Major W. V.
Sifton) and "C : Company (Lieutenant L. G. Bumstead)
to attack on the right and left respectively with B :
Company (Lieutenant A. D. McDonald) in close support
and "D" Company (Major E. A. Steer) in reserve.
120 4 CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The Battalion moved along the main Amiens-Roye
road and halted for half an hour to unload the Lewis
guns and then sent the limbers back. A little further the
water-carts and ammunition mules were left under the
Regimental Sergeant-Ma jor until needed. The men then
turned off the main road to a side road leading into le
Quesnel which had already fallen. They halted outside
the town and sent scouts ahead to reconnoitre the jump-
ing-off positions. At 1.15 p.m. the companies moved
forward, "A" and "C companies going around the
northern edge while B : Company went through the
middle of the town. The enemy was now settling down
to a stubborn resistance. The town of le Quesnel was
being heavily shelled, and the Companies were getting
casualties. Among others, Lieutenant A. D. McDonald
acting in command of "B" Company, was killed by a
shell while marching at the head of his Company down
the main street of the town. Lieutenant R. W. Warnica,
although not the next senior officer, took his place and
led the company so successfully that he received the Bel
gian Croix de Guerre.
It was found that the Fourth Division was still engaged
with the enemy and so had been unable to make good the
jumping-off positions on the east side of the town and
that the Germans held certain posts even in the outskirts
of the town itself. "C Company and a platoon of "A"
Company assisted the 75th Battalion to clear two of these
posts. About 1.50 p.m. "A" and "C Companies under
heavy shelling and machine-gun fire debouched from the
town and took up a position in the old French trenches
of the Somme battlefields.
The Battalion had three Tanks allotted to it. The
Tank officers were in position ready to assist but they were
not clear as to their orders or the situation. Yet in that
stout, stoical manner so characteristic of the Tank force,
knowing that the usual dirty work was ahead, they pushed
off in search of the enemy. The big, lumbering, awkward
machines followed their officers out of the town at 2.00
p.m. ambling along like faithful prehistoric monsters.
One of the Tanks was knocked out at the outset by an
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 121
anti-tank gun firing at almost point-blank range. An-
other was put out of action later but the third fought
all day and assisted in clearing the town of Folies.
Although the companies had not sufficient time to
assemble and examine the ground, they advanced by
sectional rushes with the tanks into the attack. They
had to cross a broad high plateau scarified by old trenches
and with a single-track railway running north and
south, half-way between le Quesnel and Folies. As
soon as they left the trenches they w r ere subjected to
heavy machine gun fire from the railway and enfilade fire
from a wood on the southern flank. By 2.10 p.m. the
first of the attacking troops had reached the railway.
At 2.35 p.m. "C Company was reported advancing
slowly over the railway and the enemy retiring but
fighting stubbornly. Some of the 1st Brigade side
slipped south about 400 yards and after considerable
confusion regained direction and kept in touch with "C*
Company. On the right A" Company under Major
Sifton had a similar experience. At one point where they
were held up by a particularly obstreperous machine-gun,
a Tank came along and put the gun out of action and
the attack continued. They also found part of the 1st
Brigade crossing their front diagonally and advancing
on Folies. Major Sifton, taking his company around the
south of Folies, was temporarily checked by an anti-
Tank gun firing point-blank. Fortunately its shells were
ricochetting from the ground in front and bursting in the
air, doing no damage. Two Lewis guns engaged the
gun and forced it to retire. Lieutenant Wreyford, al
though wounded at the railway, carried on and at 4.20
p.m. was in a similar position to "A" Company on the
north of the village and was advancing on it.
B Company which had taken over the vacated
assembly positions of the attacking troops, moved forward
and closed in for the final assault on the village. Bat
talion Headquarters left le Quesnel and went into shelters
further forward, the reserve company going with Head
quarters. At this time Lieutenant Inch of the Field
Artillery arrived with two field guns and got his guns
into position to support the attack.
122 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The capture of the town followed. One platoon of the
left company went around the north of Folies, one platoon
through the town, the remainder skirmishing and
clearing out some of the enemy who were fighting from
old gun-pits. Major Sifton, who had worked his com
pany around the south of the town, sent a platoon under
Lieutenant F. W. Rous to enfilade the enemy who was
retiring from the north-eastern end of the village. Lieu
tenant Rous successfully cut off the force which was the
size of two platoons and although shot through the left
lung remained with his men and directed the work of
consolidation. For this devotion to duty he was awarded
the Military Cross. By 5.00 p.m. the Battalion had
reached its objective and was consolidating in a trench
with the 5th C. M. R. on the right and the 1st Division
on the left. At 7.15 p.m. Battalion Headquarters moved
further forward, and all settled down for the night.
There was some rather harassing fire during the night
from what appeared to be two batteries of field guns and
some howitzers, but otherwise the companies were undis
turbed.
Throughout this whole action Major Sifton was a
tower of strength. He was the senior officer with the
fighting troops and took command, not only of his own
company but of others which had lost their leaders. He
saved many casualties by making a personal reconnais
sance of the jumping-off positions before the attack and
"during the advance of about four kilometres under
heavy machine-gun fire he directed the attack of his
company and when two company commanders became
casualties he assumed command of the attacking com
panies and directed the organization of the Battalion
outpost line. - His absolute disregard for his personal
safety and his skill and initiative were a splendid example
to all ranks and contributed largely to the success of the
attack." He received the Distinguished Service Order
for his outstanding work on this day.
The Battalion lost their Chaplain, Captain W. H.
Davis and also Lieutenant A. D. McDonald who had
been with the 4th C. M. R. almost two years. Captain
Captain W. H. Davis, M.C.
Chaplain, killed August 9, 1918
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 123
L. B. Bumstead and Lieutenants F. H. Paull and F. W.
Rous were wounded. Amongst the ranks were twelve
killed and sixty-two wounded. The Battalion was credited
with taking three German officers and 123 other ranks,
as well as many trophies, from machine guns and saddle
horses to one complete pigeon-loft containing 300 pigeons.
Every officer and man mourned for their beloved
Padre. He came from Western Canada but he had
retained his Irish heart and Celtic charm. If he knew
what fear was he never showed it. His remarkable dis
regard for danger while carrying out what he considered
his duty, became a regimental tradition. In the daily
life of the Battalion, in billets or in trenches he was always
thinking of the men s welfare. On this day as on former
occasions he was preparing to carry out his practical
mission of mercy and was gathering around him his little
band of stretcher-bearers when he and one of his men
were hit by a shell. No officer was more loved for his
character or more admired for his bravery than Padre Davis.
On the morning of the 10th at 8.15 o clock the 32nd Au 1 | 1 8
Imperial Division advanced* through the 4th C. M. R.
and attacked, driving the enemy out of range. The
Battalion remained in these positions for a week. On
the 13th it received orders to go through the 7th Brigade,
but this did not materialize. On the 14th an order to
relieve the 49th Battalion of the 7th Brigade north of
Parvillers was countermanded. Also on the 15th orders
came intimating that the Canadian Corps would resume
the offensive in conjunction with the Australians and the
French. All these were cancelled although great prepar
ations had been made. The Battalion, when not making
hurried preparations for a move, improved its positions
and en joyed as much as possible the warm summer weather.
From the 10th to the 16th, while the Battalion was Au ?- 16 >
waiting at Folies in a state of readiness, the Canadian
Corps kept up its pressure until the task became too
costly and unprofitable. The enemy was rapidly regain
ing his strength and reinforcing his thinned line with
fresh reserves. General Currie decided not to make

124 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
unnecessary sacrifices and called a halt after a few more
attempts. He reported:
I considered that it was inadvisable to try to progress mainly by
Infantry fighting, and recommended that operations should be slack
ened to give time to organize a set piece attack on a broad front. I
further suggested that rather than expose the Canadian Corps to losses
without adequate results it should be withdrawn from the front, rested
for a few days, and used to make another surprise attack in the direction
of Bapaume.
As a result the Second and Third Divisions started their
move to the First Army. The First Division relieved the
Third. The 1st Brigade relieved the 8th and the Bat
talion moved back to an orchard behind le Quesnel, in
preparation for the general move to a new sector.
The work of the Canadian Corps in the memorable
battle was finished. Again it had made history for itself
and Canada. The casualties* had been light and it was
still a very efficient fighting machine, to be moved
secretly to another sector for fresh adventure and further
successes.
General Rawlinson sent the following message to the
Canadian Corps on August 16th:
I desire to place on record my sincere appreciation of the conspic
uous and highly successful part played by the Canadian Corps in the
battle of August 8th. The task allotted to them was not easy, especially
on the right where the initial attack of the 3rd Canadian Division was
delivered under especial difficulties.
The need for secrecy, which necessitated the assembly of the
whole Corps, including the heavy artillery, by night in an area pre
viously unknown to them, enhanced the difficulties, especially when
the front line had of necessity to be held by other troops.
The determination with which all obstacles were overcome, the
dash and gallantry with which the assault was delivered, and the
precision with which each advance was made exactly on scheduled time,
reflect the highest credit both on the staff arrangements and the fine
fighting spirit of all units which took part in the operation.
The three points which seem to me to deserve the highest commend
ation are the splendid gallantry of the infantry, the skill and hard work
in "getting in" the artillery (both heavy artillery and field artillery)
on the nights preceding the battle, and the energy and drive in pushing
forward mobile artillery immediately the enemy front line had been
broken. . .
The general control and direction of the battle by Corps, Divisional
and Brigade Staffs were admirable and enabled the whole programme
to be carried through in its entirety without a hitch; this is in itself
the highest praisa that can be given.
I congratulate the Canadian Corps as a whole and offer them my
warmest thanks for their very fine performance.
* The casualties were light in comparison with the number of troops engaged,
but the casualties of the Canadian Corps were 11,725, all ranks.
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 125
The next day General Rawlinson forwarded the follow- A ug
ing message in a Special Order of the day:
To General Sir H. S. Rawlinson, Bt., G.C.V.O., K.C.B., K.C.M.G.,
Commanding Fourth Army.
My warmest congratulations and thanks to yourself, your Staff,
and all ranks under your command for the magnificent success recently
gained by the Fourth Army. The brilliant manner in which the oper
ation was prepared and successfully carried out, with comparatively
small losses, by the III., Australian and Canadian Corps in conjunction
with the Cavalry Corps, R.A.F. and Tank Corps, pays striking tribute
to the skill of the leaders of all ranks and the bravery of the individual
soldier, as well as to the high state of efficiency of the staffs and depart
mental services concerned. The gallant and skilful co-operation of the
armoured cars and motor machine-gun batteries is worthy of the highest
praise. Please convey to all ranks my appreciation and thanks.
D. HAIG, Field-Marshal,
August 17th, 1918. Commander-in-Chief, British Armies in France.
On August 19th the Battalion was warned that it Aug. 19,
would move the next night with the Brigade to an area
to be notified later. Moving by night, and to an unknown
destination, suggested another mystery. The men were
getting used to this sort of thing. Nothing surprised
them any longer and they rather took delight in these
tactical enigmas. In the evening of the 20th they Aug. 20,
climbed into forty-six charabancs and started in the
direction of Amiens. It was a beautiful night and the
ride was like a sight-seeing tour across the recently won
ground. They turned north from Amiens toward Doul-
lens, rolling along the route-nationale, singing the latest
songs from the music-halls and in evident good spirits.
They had never left a recent battlefield in such splendid trim .
From Doullens they turned north-east about five miles to
Lucheux, where, at 2 a.m. on August 21st, the convoy Aug. 21,
stopped. A Staff Captain loomed up in the moonlight
with fresh orders. The Battalion debused and marched
about three miles in the same direction to Humbercourt.
The men were in their billets by 4.30 a.m., but not for
long; by 8.30 p.m. they were on their way to Warluzel,
a mile or so north. On the 22nd they were again on the Au &- 22 >
move, marching to Lignereuil in the cool of the night
through fresh, verdant farm-country over good roads
under a full harvest moon. Lignereuil lay between the
village of Berlencourt, where they had stopped in their
126 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
march from the Somme, and Manin, another village they
had enjoyed on the way to the Mercatel sector. They
learned that they were "for the line" and with a day s
rest they were transported by buses to the outskirts of
Arras.
ARRAS
The Second Battles of Arras, 1918*, which opened on
August 26th and lasted nine days followed the Second
Battles of the Somme. The latter commenced on August
21st and included the Battle of Albert and the Second
Battle of Bapaume, which commenced August 31st.
The northern boundary of this attack was about five
miles south of Arras and parallel with the river Scarpe.
North of this boundary General Home s First Army was
holding the line. While the Battle for Bapaume was in
progress, Sir Douglas Haig decided to extend his front
as far north as the river Scarpe and drive a wedge into
the German line on his northern flank. For this the Can
adians were chosen. They replaced the XVII Corps of
the First Army, which was holding the ground south of
the Scarpe and fought between the First and Third
Armies in the first stage of the advance on Cambrai.
The Second and Third Canadian Divisions went into
the line. The 8th Brigade relieved the 46th Imperial
Brigade, the 17th Cyclist Battalion and the Life Guards
Aug. 23, Machine Gun Battalion on the night of August 23rd-24th.
The 4th C. M. R. relieved a composite force of Cyclists
and Life Guards in front of Feuchy about three miles
west of Arras. In the early morning of the 24th, the
enemy, evidently suspecting a relief or concentration of
troops, shelled the left company in and in front of Feuchy
with "yellow-cross" gas shells and H.E. shrapnel.
Five officers Lieutenants A. Cameron, C. E. Kormann,
A. Laidlaw, T. J. Rutherford, J. L. Yule and 116 men
became casualties from this bombardment. It seriously
crippled the Company which had to be reorganized and
reinforced from the rear.
The | Brigade was ordered to attack the enemy s

The Battle of the Scarpe, 1918, and The Battle of the Droc ourt-Queant Line.
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 127
positions between the Arras-Cambrai road and the River
Scarpe. On the north of the river the 51st Imperial Di
vision, known as the Highland Division, with probably
the most enviable reputation in the Army, was supporting
the attack. The 4th C. M. R. was again on the left of
the Corps with its northerly flank at the river; the 2nd
C. M. R. in the centre and the 5th C. M. R. on the right
next to the road. The 1st C. M. R. was to pass through
the 2nd and 4th C. M. R. battalions and attack Monchy-
le-Preux the same Monchy which impeded an advance
in a former battle in front of Arras. The Battalion was
disposed with "C" Company on the left, "B" Company
on the right, "A" Company in support and "D" Com
pany in reserve. "D" Company was originally intended
to be the left front company but on account of the casual
ties it was brought back into reserve and replaced by
"C Company.
All preparations were made for an attack on the 25th. Aug. 25,
The officers had little opportunity to acquaint themselves
with the ground and there was some doubt as to the
exact location of the enemy. One platoon of "C"
Company was sent out on the night of the 24th to get
in touch with the enemy and to occupy any trenches
available for jumping-off. This platoon found some
trenches that had been evacuated and occupied them.
The attack did not take place on the 25th as expected Au s 26,
but was postponed to 4.50 a.m. on the 26th; later zero
hour was moved forward to 3.00 a.m. About midnight a
light, steady rain began to fall as the companies assembled
for the attack. By 2.30 a.m. all were in position. The
two attacking companies were in front of the wire east
of " Ionian" Trench, the support company in "Ionian 3
and "Iceland" Trenches with the reserve company in
the vicinity of "Broken Lane."
The barrage was strong and accurate and gave heart
to the men as they went "over the top" at zero hour,
the flashes from the guns, the blinding brightness of the
flares, and the sudden lightning-cracks from the high-
explosives increased the bewilderment of the darkness.
The impedimenta of wire and old trenches which sprang
128 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Au s- into view with each artificial glare added to the difficulties
of keeping up with the creeping-barrage. It was fortu
nate for the left company that they could not get on too
quickly because the machine-gun barrage of the 152nd
Brigade over the river was sweeping across the flank.
As it was it caused several casualties. Lieutenant A. N.
Brown, who had joined but a week, unfortunately was
killed in this way.
For the first 400 yards there was little opposition, then
heavy machine-gun fire came from "Indian Trench"
and from the Arras-Douai Railway along the river valley.
Here Captain H. C. Rounds, commanding "A" Company,
was killed. By reason of this fire the companies were
forced to slow up and reorganize. The support company
pushed forward to reinforce them, and a fresh assault
was made. "Indian" and "Italian" trenches on the
right were taken but the left was again held up. At
5.35 a.m. the reserve company arrived at "Indian"
trench and the officer commanding "D" Company organ
ized an attack along the river bank and cleared up the
situation on that flank. It was not long until the Bat
talion had reached all its objectives. By 6.30 a.m. the
right was in touch with the 2nd C. M. R and the left
reported that all was clear to the river. At 7.00 a.m.
the advanced Headquarters was moved forward and
within forty-five minutes the rear area was entirely
cleared, the companies were occupying "Italian," "John
son," "Junker" and "Lancer" trenches and the 1st
C. M. R. passed through on the right.
From Feuchy to Monchy there was a rapid rise of
sixty feet up Orange Hill. The advance of the 4th and
2nd C. M. R. Battalions was along the low ground by
the river around Orange Hill. The 2nd C. M. R. turned
partly south and attacked from the north while the 1st
C. M. R. went through the 4th C. M. R. and attacked
south on Monchy from a northerly re-entrant. At the
same time the 5th C. M. R. made a frontal attack on the
spur and Monchy was taken.
At 7.55 a.m. the Brigade ordered the Battalion to assist
the 1st C. M. R. Colonel Patterson sent "D" Company
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 129
under Captain E. A. Steer to get in touch with them and
ordered the remaining companies to re-assemble and
prepare to push forward to give every possible assistance.
At noon Captain Steer reported that he was occupying
"Welford" and "Bayonet" trenches, had driven out the
enemy machine-gun posts near the river and was in touch
with the 1st C. M. R. Battalion.
At 1.10 p.m. the Commanding Officer ordered his
companies to move forward into closer support to the
firing line. The 7th Brigade s attack had started at
9.30 a.m., passing through the 8th Brigade and attacking
on a line running south from Pelves. On account of a
bend in the Scarpe the 49th Battalion passed a little to the
south of the 4th C. M. R. and the only evidence that it
had advanced was the lively action in the valley by Pelves
in front of Jig Saw Wood.
Up to this time the shelling had not been severe and
the general resistance weaker than anticipated. There was
more shelling after the Battalion had reached its objec
tives. The enemy appeared to have adopted a new
scheme of defence by withdrawing his men to a second
line and making a stand there, relying on strong machine-
gun positions to allay the original assault and disorganize
the attacking troops. He had a concentration of guns
on the heights behind Monchy and with these laid down
a heavy fire throughout the area during most of the day.
At 4.15 p.m. the companies had just been reorganized
and allotted to different trenches when the Brigade
ordered the Battalion to support the 49th Battalion on the
left flank of the 7th Brigade. It was found on recon
noitring that to move forward would mean occupying
practically the same trenches as the 49th and probably
would cause a confusion in commands. So it was arrang
ed between the commanding officers that the Battalion
remain where it was. "A" Company was in "Junker"
trench, "B : and "C" Companies in "Jamaica" and
"Johnston" trenches and : D Company in "Welford
and "Bayonet" trenches with advanced posts in touch with
the 1st C. M. R. The Battalion remained in this position
without incident during that night and the day of the 27th. w

A " g - In the evening of the 27th the Battalion was warned
by telephone to be prepared to relieve the 43rd Battalion.
An advance party of all companies under Major W. V.
Sifton was sent forward to reconnoitre the 43rd Battal
ion s position. While the party was away the orders
were changed. A further advance was anticipated for
Aug. 28, August 28th and the 43rd Battalion was placed under
orders of the 8th Brigade and the 4th C. M. R. under
the 9th Brigade. Consequently the party was sent back
and rejoined at 6.00 a.m. on the 28th. Orders had been
received an hour before from the 9th Brigade stating
that the 3rd Division would continue the advance and
that the 9th Brigade would attack that morning. The
4th C. M. R. and the 52nd Battalions were detailed to
attack on the right and left respectively and capture
the enemy trenches south of Boiry. The 4th C. M. R.
was to swing a portion of the Battalion to the right and
form a flank on the Cojeul River until the attack of the
8th Brigade, which was timed for one and a half hours
later than the 9th Brigade attack, matured.
Zero hour was set for 11.00 a.m. on the 28th. The
companies started some time before to get to their assem
bly positions. Major Sif ton s party which had returned
at 6.00 a.m. was thoroughly fatigued but had to turn
around and join the assaulting troops. The march to
the front was particularly trying; the men had to go about
6,000 yards over difficult ground which was being shelled
continuously. The companies were given their orders;
"C" Company was to attack on the right with its flank
on the Cojeul River and "B" Company on the left with
its left flank on the town of Boiry. They were ordered
to penetrate a distance of 2,000 yards on a 1,200 yard
front. "D" Company was to move in close support to
"C" Company, assisting it and at the same time making
good the right flank on the Cojeul River. " A " Company
was to be in reserve and move in the rear of B" Com
pany.
Owing to the difficulties of the ground and to the fact
that the enemy had observed the movement of several
battalions and had opened a heavy barrage, only "C
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 131
and "D : companies reached their assembly positions
before our barrage came down. The company com
manders seeing that there was no time to wait for the
original battle order seized the initiative and swung
their companies into the breach, " C Company taking
the place of B" Company in the left attack, and "D"
Company making the right attack. They moved forward
behind the barrage and the other companies came up in
support although losing heavily under the enemy s bar
rage. In spite of these handicaps the Forward Observing
Officer reported that the attack was progressing favour
ably.
At 12.30 p.m. messages from the front line started to
reach Battalion Headquarters. Captain Steer, com
manding D ; Company, returned wounded with sixty
prisoners which his company had captured and reported
that the attackers were proceeding to their final objec
tive. At 1.20 p.m. a further report from the right
attacking company stated that their right flank was on
the Cojeul River and that they were suffering from
machine-gun fire. Later they asked for artillery to be
turned on Cigarette Copse and on Long Wood, which
were full of machine-guns. Also a field gun had their
range and was firing over open sights from the corner of
the wood. This hostile concentration was promptly
broken up by our artillery. At 4.10 p.m. all companies
reported that they were holding Lady Lane" and sup
port trenches and were in touch on the left with the 52nd
Battalion and elements of the 116th Battalion and 58th
Battalion which had come up.
The Battalion was very grateful to a Battery of
the 52nd Brigade Artillery which reported to the
Battalion s Headquarters and gave excellent support by
keeping down enemy machine-guns. The work of the
Battery was most commendable. The speed with which
it got into action in a forward position was responsible
for the breaking up of the enemy formations and for the
destruction of obstacles which were impeding the advance.
By sundown the situation had become normal. The
Battalion had taken all its objectives and after consolida-
132 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Aug - ting, spent the evening cleaning up the new positions.
It was relieved by the Somerset Light Infantry, the
Aug. 29, relief being completed at 5.30 a.m. on the 29th and the
1918 Battalion marched back to Arras. Another important
battle was over. One more nick had been made in the
German line by the Canadians.
The Battalion lost more heavily at Arras than at
Amiens although both battles were very similar. The
reason for the larger casualty list was due to the double
engagement. On August 26th Captain H. C. Rounds,
Lieutenant A. N. Brown and nine other ranks were killed,
Lieutenant R. W. Warnica and seventy -three other ranks
wounded. On August 28th Captain J. M. Dobie and
thirteen other ranks were killed and Captain E. A. Steer,
Lieutenants T. P. Philips, R. Mitchell, W. H. Pfeffer, H.
G Davidson, E. V. McMillan, J. B. Da vies, C. F. Pashler,
A. B. Cockburn, F. C. Thomson, P. Wright and 141 other
ranks were wounded. Lieutenant P. Wright subse
quently died of his wounds.
Aug. 3i, After a day and night of well-earned rest the Battalion
left Arras for Lattre-St. Quentin, a little village near
Avesnes-le Comte and not far from Manin, a district to
which the men were becoming accustomed. "he month
of August, 1918, was probably the most interesting month
the Battalion experienced. Other months stood
against the background of war; disastrous months like
June 1916, or costly conquests as in October, 1916, on the
Somme and October, 1917, at Passchendaele, but this month
was one to remember. The Regiment had been from
one end of the British line to the other and back again
through four Armies, the whole time partaking of
sweet cup of victory.
The Battle of Arras was continued for a week atter
the Battalion left the line. The Drocourt-Queant line
was broken on September 2nd and the Germans fell back
to the main Hindenburg Line. The direction of
attack was kept on the Arras-Cambrai road until the
advance was within six miles of Cambrai
Army captured nearly 19,000 prisoners and 200 guns.
The Battalion s share on August 26th had been six
1918
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 133
officers and 225 other ranks as well as four field guns, Sept.
numerous machine-guns and trench mortars ; on the 28th,
four officers and 234 other ranks besides two field guns
and twenty-six light and heavy machine-guns. During
the continuation of this battle, the Battalion returned
from the Army Reserve area to Arras where repatriated
civilians were already re-establishing themselves, scratch
ing amongst the ruins of their homes or opening little
shops to trade with the troops.
On September 6th the men moved to Vis-en-Artois in Sept. 6,
Divisional Reserve. It was on the Arras-Cambrai road
at the intersection of the Cojeul River and just south of
the position of the Battalion in the action of August 28th.
They were not out of range of the enemy s guns which
continually shelled the village. On September 10th
Ma jor-General Lipsett visited the Battalion before leaving
to command the 4th Imperial Division. The men were
paraded and the General addressed them:
I have just received an order this morning to report to the 4th Impe
rial Division. I cannot express to you the great disappointment I feel on
being forced to leave the Third Canadian Division which I have com
manded for two years and three months. I am seizing this opportunity
of saying "Good-bye" to the 8th Brigade and to the 4th C. M. R.
Battalion, all my associations with whom have been the most pleasant
of my life.
The 8th Brigade have always covered themselves with distinction,
at Mount Sorrel and from there to the Somme, where General Byng
informed me that the 8th Brigade was one of the finest in the Army.
At Vimy you distinguished yourselves; at Passchendaele you made
the hole through which the 9th Brigade was able to pass through and
capture Bellevue Spur. These actions came to a climax in the three
recent actions, at Amiens and in front of Arras.
You have always done your bit more than willingly and with a
spirit that guaranteed success. I have in my two years and three
months command always done my utmost to help you and I wish to
express my deep gratitude to you for the manner in which you carried
on under my command.
Colonel Patterson replied for the Battalion and led
the men in three hearty cheers. It was a great shock to
everyone to learn within a month, on October 15th, this
popular General and brave soldier had been killed com
manding his new Division. Ma jor-General F. O. W. Loomis
took over the command of the Third Canadian Division.
On September llth the Battalion moved into the front Sept- n.
support line and relieved the 58th Battalion of the
134 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Sept. Fourth Division, in the villages of Recourt, Saudemont
and Ecourt St. Quentin, nearer Cambrai now than Arras.
The Battalion was a week in this forward area suffering
from counter-battery shelling until relieved by the 8th
Middlesex battalion; then it marched back to Vis-en -
Artois for a day before leaving for another sector. The
Battle of Arras was burnt out and the still greater Battle
of Cambrai was preparing.
CAMBRAI
A month, almost to the day after the start of the
Battle of Arras, the Battle of Cambrai-St.Quentin com
menced. Since the first successes of the counter-offen
sive in August, the Higher Command had been doing
everything in its power to exploit these successes and
reach again the Hindenburg Line. At last the British
and French had the Germans back in their last line of
permanent defences along the Canal du Nord. The
French were at the gates of St. Quentin and were pressing
from there southward. The British were back approxim
ately to the line they held prior to March 21st, 1918.
The First, Third and Fourth Armies attacked on a
thirty mile front, roughly from the junction of the Sensee
and Hirondelle Rivers, east of Arras to St. Quentin.
Thirty-five Divisions were employed besides Cavalry,
Tanks and other arms. More troops were used than in
any other battle of the Last Hundred Days but much
less ground was gained in comparison. What was gained,
however, was of the utmost importance. The Canal du
Nord was crossed and the Hindenburg Line pierced.
The Germans were determined to hold this last great
fortified line, but Sir Douglas Haig knew that if there
was any delay in striking : the struggle might still be
protracted over the winter. : Both sides fought des
perately; it was really the death struggle.
The ten days of bitter fighting fell into three phases:
(1) the storming of the Canal du Nord and the advance on
Cambrai; (2) the great blow which shattered the Hin
denburg Line and turned the defences of St. Quentin;
(3) the development of these successes by a general
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 135
attack on the whole front which broke through the last Sept.
of the German defences in the rear of the Hindenburg
Line forcing the enemy to evacuate Cambrai and St.
Quentin and fall back on the line of the River Selle.
The Canadian Corps was again employed under the
First Army on the left of the general attack and in a
way similar to the Battle of Arras with this difference
instead of continuing to attack in a south-easterly direc
tion parallel to and north of the Arras-Cambrai road,
the Corps operated in a north-easterly direction parallel
to and north of the Bapaume-Cambrai road. The
ultimate objectives were to secure the bridge-heads over
the Scheldt Canal, from Cambrai north, and to form a de
fensive flank for the Third Army attack south of Cambrai.
This was not the first time that Canadians had been
involved in an attack on Cambrai. On November 20th,
1917, when the Canadian Cavalry Brigade joined in
General Byng s Third Army surprise attack, a squadron
of the Fort Garry Horse had crossed the Canal south of
Cambrai and alone had galloped "into the blue," scup
pering four 3-inch guns and sabreing a few Germans.
They fought their way back on foot through Masnieres
and rejoined their regiment. Lieutenant Strachan, who
led this Squadron, won the Victoria Cross for his daring
exploit.
The Battle commenced on September 27th, 1918.
The First and Fourth Divisions attacking from a line
through Moeuvres, six miles west of Cambrai, took
Bourlon Wood, and the Marcoing system of trenches
west of Cambrai. On the second day the Third Division
joined, swinging north-east with the First and Fourth
Divisions to seize the bridge-heads over the Escaut
Canal. This second day s task developed into days of
the most severe fighting. The 4th C. M. R. was in
reserve until the very end of the struggle but had the
distinction of being the first to enter Cambrai.
Prior to this battle, on September 20th, the Battalion Sept. 20,
marched to Croisilles where it entrained and rode back
over the old battlefields on the recently reconstructed
railway into a rest area at Simencourt behind Arras.
136 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
The men did a certain amount of training and were re-
equipped for further fighting. They stayed there until
Sept. 26, September 26th and then marched to Wanquetin. It
was intended that they should go by train to Bullecourt,
about six miles behind the line, but one section of the
newly-laid track had spread and they had to detrain at
Boisleux-au-Mont at the junction of the main Arras-
Albert railway. After marching across the disabled
portion to Boisleux St. Mare they entrained for Croisilles,
arriving at 11.00 p.m. The orders were to march forward
immediately to an "area" behind the 7th Brigade. It
was a pitch-black night and raining. The Germans
were shelling with a high-velocity gun and causing a few
casualties which did not add to the comfort of the march.
They arrived at 4.00 a.m. in the "area", which, as usual
on such occasions, was merely a map-reference. Like
many other "areas" this was a piece of old "No-Man s-
Land" filled with every variety of wire and dishevelled
trench.
By 5.20 a.m. the Brigade had just arrived when the
Fourth Army attack began . As the advance progressed the
Battalion went forward. At noon it marched to another
"area" just east of Inchy where the Fourth Division had
jumped-off in the morning. The Transport followed
arriving at 3.00 p.m. and a hot meal was served. The
men were ordered to "stand to" ready to move on a
moment s notice but they were not disturbed and at 7.00
p.m. had orders to remain where they were for the night.
Meanwhile the attack of the First and Fourth Divisions
had been a most successful one. The Fourth Division
on the right had passed beyond Bourlon Wood and was
strenuously engaged at Fontaine. The First Division
had even greater success and at nightfall was beyond
Haynecourt. The two Divisions had advanced about
five miles.
Sept. 2 8. At 6.00 a.m. on the 28th the Battalion moved again to
a new position just west of Bourlon Wood, remaining
there during that day and part of the night of the 28th-
29th. The Third Division had gone into the fight but
the Battalion was still in reserve. The defence was
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 137
tightening, and the whole of the 28th was a day of the
most severe fighting. The Canadians were trying to
work around the north of Cambrai and seize the bridge
heads across the canal while the Third Army did the
same to the south. For the Germans to retain the bridge
heads and hold Cambrai, a key position, meant the stem
ming of the British tidal advance. For us it meant
breaking into the open, green country; rolling back the
enemy where he had no longer wire and prepared trenches ;
and forcing him to retire all along the line. The British
were fighting desperately for a decision. The Third
Division was thrown in and ordered to swing north-east
with the First and Fourth Divisions across the Douai
road and railway down to the canal and seize the crossings.
It was done but not on the 28th, 29th or 30th, or with
the rush that the orders implied. The fighting was
desperate, the losses were terrible. Every yard was won
after a battle and it took a week of this fighting before
the high ground over the canal was reached and the
Germans, not being able to "stand the gaff," broke under
the strain.
At 3.00 a.m. on the 29th, the Battalion was ordered Sept. 29,
forward toward Cambrai. En route a written operation
order was received that the Battalion was to support the
1st and 2nd C. M. R. Battalions which were attacking
between St. Olie and Neuville St. Remy with their
northerly boundary the Douai-Cambrai road and the
southerly the Arras-Cambrai road. The 5th C. M. R.
Battalion was in reserve. The Battalion moved by
congested roads into the trenches of the Marcoing sys
tem and kept in touch with the attacking troops. The
Germans laid down a barrage which killed one officer and
two men and wounded eight others. Unfortunately
Lieutenant E. Rule, who joined as a private after Sanc
tuary Wood and was granted a commission in the Field,
was killed.
The Battalion was in the Marcoing Line at 7.00 a.m.
on the 29th. There was a heavy ground mist and had
it not been for this protection, the casualties would have
been greater as the enemy was occupying in strength
138 4 TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
trenches which were only 300 yards distant and was also
in the Marcoing Line on the right. In fact the 58th
Battalion was having difficulty in getting into position
and was heavily counter-attacked. The Battalion threw
out a protective flank but was not called upon to assist.
The Unit remained in these positions until the night of
ct 2, October 2nd-3rd when two companies took up a position
in the first line of resistance in the Brigade defence line;
on the next night the Battalion relieved the 2nd C. M. R.
in the front line. Twice during this dormant period the
Battalion expected to attack and assist in the seizure of
bridge-heads on the Escaut Canal but the general situ
ation was not ripe. From the 4th until the 9th there
was another lull, waiting for the storm to break again on
Cambrai. Meantime, to the north, ground was changing
hands every hour. The Battalion had the good fortune
to have a more quiet sector on the outskirts of Cambrai
and under the lee of its protection. At no time was there
any attempt made to assault the city itself, the plan
being to go around it and cut it off. Consequently the
Brigade front was comparatively quiet and the men
were occupied in preparing defensive positions in case
the enemy made a sally from the city.
During this period support and reserve companies were
living in what had formerly been an enemy ammunition
dump. Some men had ferreted into shell shelters and
others had cover adjacent to a cordite dump. During
Oct. s, the evening of October 5th there was intermittent shelling
but about 2.00 a.m. on the 6th the enemy threw salvo
after salvo into the support area and set on fire a large
dump in front of "B" Company s Headquarters. Then
the cordite dump in front of "A Company Head
quarters caught fire. Everyone fled without waiting
for personal treasures; it was the part of wisdom for in
a few minutes there was an enormous explosion. The
dump "went up," blowing a crater seventy feet wide and
thirty feet deep where the hurriedly vacated billets had
been. It was estimated that the enemy threw over 500
shells into these two companies; despite this and the
explosion there was not a single casualty.

THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 139
On October 8th the Battalion was told the plan of Oct -
attack for the 9th. The Third Army was attacking
south of Cambrai and if they were successful the 2nd
Canadian Division on the north of Cambrai was to cross
the canal, hold the bridge-heads and join with the Third
Army east of Cambrai. The Second Division was not
to advance until the Third Army had gained the high
ground in the neighborhood of Awoingt. The 8th
Brigade was to co-operate with the 2nd Division attack
on the right flank; the 4th C. M. R. to advance to the
Canal, clean up a few strong posts and secure the bridge
heads across the Canal. If the Second Division and 8th
Brigade were successful the remainder of the Third
Division was to follow and secure the town and the
ground to the east until new bridges could be constructed.
The Battalion was lying to the immediate north-west
of Cambrai with the Canal between a formidable ob
stacle, with steep banks and considerable water. The
Engineers were to move up pontoon bridges, tubular
trestle bridges, ladders, and plank and cork floats to
cross the canal. The attack was to take place on the
9th at 0130, or 1.30 a.m. (The continental manner of Oct. 9,
expressing the time was adopted throughout the Army
on October 1st). It was an unusual hour to attack, but
it was a clear cool autumn night and the reflections from
fires burning in Cambrai lighted the sky.
The attacks of the Second Division and the Third
Army were so successful that there is nothing to narrate
beyond the fact that the German defence snapped and
the reaction to the tension of the last ten days meant a
sudden burst into the territory beyond Cambrai. At
1.30 a.m. "C Company attacked and within an hour all
objectives were reached. At daybreak the Battalion
crossed the Canal, passed through the city and by 8.00
a.m. was established on the eastern outskirts of Cambrai,
in touch with the 5th C. M. R. on the right and the 26th
Battalion on the left. There were no casualties during
the attack and the only serious opposition was met
while crossing the Canal.
The Battalion who were the first in Cambrai saw how
140 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
a c ^y cou ld 1^ a fter occupation by the Germans.
The houses were in a filthy condition and on every side
were evidences of looting and pillaging. The scenes in
Cambrai before it was evacuated can be pictured by the
official statement of a German prisoner :
Bavarian and Prussian troops recently came to blows over their
loot, with the result that one officer and fifteen Prussians were killed.
The officer was thrown from the third floor of a house and broke his
neck.
Some extracts from a German order of the 187th In
fantry Regiment dated September 21st, 1918, throw an
interesting light on the mentality of the German soldier
at this time:
The morale and discipline of our men has greatly decreased, on
account of the elastic-defence tactics leading men to believe that the
ground is of no value.
The Divisional Intelligence Staff commenting on these
orders in a communique stated that the decrease in
discipline and morale was shown by:
Unnecessary retirements; general conduct of men on leave; riots as
in Cambrai when officers joined in the same crimes with the men. . . .
People in Germany blamed for writing to soldiers and referring to the
war as the "great swindle."
These statements are significant. They show what
was beginning to happen to the interior economy of
the German Army. There were still brave Germans
fighting in the old patriotic way but undoubtedly from
October onward the German Army was not what it had
been.
The Battalion held the positions east of Cambrai during
the day and night of the 9th without experiencing counter
attacks or hostile activities, and was then relieved by
the Seaforth Highlanders of the Third Army. They
retired to the west of Cambrai and "billeted" in the old
Oct. 10, trench line. The next day they were having a general
clean-up when H. R. H. the Prince of Wales, unheralded,
looked in on the Battalion. After an informal chat with
the officers he went on to visit another unit. The
Battalion remained in this area for ten days. It was
here that the Battalion learned of the death of Major-
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 141
General Lipsett who was killed and buried close to his
old command. His death cast a gloom over the whole
Division; one hundred men represented the Battalion
at his funeral.
While the Battalion was resting much was happening
all along the front. The Germans had started to retire
to a new line and the Battalion on October 20th joined
in the general advance which ended with the Armistice.
FINAL ADVANCE TO MONS
After Cambrai had fallen the British followed up their
success, keeping in touch with the Germans who were
forced back to the River Selle. There another pitched
battle took place from October 17th to 25th. While the
Battle of the Canal du Nord was in progress the last Battle
of Ypres had been fought, starting on September 28th.
These two great pushes north and south forced the Ger
mans to withdraw from Lens, Douai and Lille. Into
this area the Battalion was sent on October 20th to
follow the retreating enemy, coming by the end of the
month to the neighbourhood of Valenciennes and partici
pating in the last great battle for Valenciennes, Maubeuge
and Mons.
From Cambrai to Mons the Battalion had three
\veeks of almost steady moving. There was some
fighting in the first week of November, during the last
British battle, but for the most part the task was to
harass a defeated army and keep it retiring. The demo
lition of railways, bridges and roads, the flooding of
lowlands and the general destruction of the various means
of communication by the enemy retarded the advance
probably more than resistance in arnis.
On October 20th the Battalion had marched back about Oct - 20
seven miles to Inchy where they embused and travelled
north fifteen miles as the crow flies to Montigny, five
miles east of Douai. They found the place deserted
and billeted for the night in a Sanitarium. The next
day they marched a few miles to Rieulay. Here was a
different atmosphere. The billeting officer had a new
142 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Oct experience in being besieged by French civilians willing
and anxious to provide billets. When the men marched
in they found the village bedecked with flags and bunting,
and the people in the streets crying "Vive le Canada ! ;
The inhabitants were chiefly older folk and children.
Apparently through all the years in occupied territory
they had preserved their sacred tri-colours, waiting in
silence for the day when they could display them again
with pride. An entry in the Diary by Captain G. D.
Fleming describes the life of the inhabitants under the
German heel :
The Battalion in small groups listens with more or less compre
hension to the cruelties and annoyances to which the inhabitants had
been subjected by the detested enemy. They told of the requisitioning
scheme, under ^vhich they were deprived of their horses, cattle, pigs,
poultry and grain, which they were forced to cultivate and of which
they received no share for their labour; of the taking of all copper, brass
and nickel articles, down to doorknobs; of the forcing of boys of fourteen
years to work at trench-digging; of the fines and punishments, including
imprisonment, for even slight infractions of the rigid rules of occupation;
in short, the story of their virtual enslavement.
Oct. 21, The next day the Battalion marched to Hornaing,
half-way between Douai and Valenciennes, another town
in holiday mood, no one apparently doing any work.
The people s time seemed divided between celebrating
their release and procuring food. The soldiers were
generous with their rations; consequently the inhabitants
were often seen carrying bread or tins of bully beef or
the little white bags of biscuits and iron rations. But
under the surface of hilarity was an infinite pathos.
The Battalion moved on to Aremberg. The Third
Canadian Division had passed through the First Division,
the 7th and 9th Brigades leading and the 8th Brigade in
reserve. The Division had cleared the Foret de Raismes
to the north of Valenciennes on October 23rd, and was
soon on the west bank of the Canal de 1 Escaut between
Conde and Valenciennes. Here they halted and waited
for the general attack to be delivered on November 1st.
The Battalion remained at Aremberg training and pro-
Oct. 30, viding working parties until the 30th when it relieved the
52nd Battalion and two companies of the 116th Battalion,
near Raismes. The front was a series of outposts 5,000
mm
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 143
yards long. Most of the area had been flooded by the
Germans and the natural obstacles to the attack across
the Canal on November 1st looked almost insurmount
able. With the exception of built-up roads no part of
the Canal could be approached without getting into
water waist-high. All the bridges had been demolished,
the Germans had excellent machine gun emplacements
on the east bank of the Canal, and their position seemed
invulnerable. The Third Division attacked on the left
with one Brigade, the 8th, at Anzin and Bruay, and the
Fourth Division attacked on their right at Valenciennes.
The last day of October was quiet. The Battalion
was shifted about to equalize the frontage and sent out
patrols to draw the enemy. The attack on November
1st was entirely different from anything heretofore ex
perienced. It was impossible to rush the enemy who
was comfortably lodged on the other side of the water
barrier. The Battalion had literally to swim and raft
its way across, and the individual exploits read more
like fiction than fact.
On the evening of November 1st patrols started to NOV. i,
reconnoitre for ways and means of crossing the canal at
the various bridge-heads and dealing with the machine-
gun nests. A patrol sent out to get in touch with the
1st C. M. R. Battalion on the left, ran foul of one of the
1st C. M. R. posts in the dark, was mistaken for the
enemy, and had five men wounded before the error could
be corrected. Major C. H. McLean and one other rank
succeeded in some miraculous manner in crossing the
canal on a raft. As soon as they touched the opposite
bank they were fired on from a machine-gun a few yards
distant. Major McLean killed one of the gunners with
his revolver and held the rest of the crew at bay until
his runner returned to the opposite bank for assistance.
C. S. M. Goodchild and a party of fifteen, under a rifle
grenade barrage, crossed the canal on a raft and with
Major McLean rushed the post and captured the gun
with its crew of ten. Simultaneously and with equal
intrepidity Lieutenant W. Nodwell swam the canal,
established a post and enabled a party to throw a bridge
144 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Nov - across. The establishment of these two posts by Major
McLean and Lieutenant Nodwell procured 600 yards on
the east bank of the canal, which was a very substantial
footing and had a decisive effect on subsequent operations.
Brigadier-General Dyer who witnessed Major McLean s
exploit, personally recommended him for the D.S.O., and
the Battalion knew nothing of the award until it was
announced.
Nov. 2, During the morning of November 2nd, four observers
under Pte. C. O. Sensabaugh noticed a party of the enemy
bringing up machine-guns into a cemetery. It was im
possible to reach them by rifle fire so they crossed the
canal into No-Man s-Land and crawled 600 yards
through the cemetery surprising and capturing the entire
personnel of the post.
The attack of the Fourth Division to the south had
been successful and the Battalion was ordered to cross
the canal in strength if possible without losses. Patrols
were sent out but reported that the enemy controlled
the bridge-heads and was too strongly emplaced along
the opposite bank of the canal. The situation during the
Nov. 3, morning and afternoon of the 3rd was little changed.
At 6.30 p.m. a message was received from the Brigade
ordering the 5th C. M. R. Battalion to advance through
the Battalion s right company to Onnaing on the Valen-
ciennes-Mons road keeping in touch with the Fourth
Division on the right and working north to occupy Vicq.
This movement avoided the flooded marshes east of
Bruay. The Battalion was ordered to advance in con
junction with the 5th C. M. R. and make good the rail
way embankment of the Valenciennes-Mons railway
where it crossed the canal. The task was allotted to two
companies; "C Company to work around the left and
"D" Company around the right. B : Company was
divided and two platoons were to support the attacking
companies.
At 5.00 a.m. the companies moved forward. At 7.00
a.m. the officer commanding "C Company reported
that he had reached his objective. Some resistance from
a machine-gun was encountered, but the men dislodged
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 145
it, driving its crew down the railway and into a house.
Lieutenant C. L. W. Nicholson was killed and Lieutenant
N. E. McDonald and five other ranks wounded. Lieu
tenant Nicholson had risen from the ranks by virtue of
his ability as a soldier. He was wounded in January
and killed within a few days of the anniversary of his
joining the Battalion. He was the last officer in the
Battalion to give his life on the field of battle. His loss
particularly at such a time was keenly felt by his
men and fellow officers.
"D" Company was unable to make good its objective,
being held up by opposition from a slag pile on the 5th
C. M. R. front. During the night the slag pile was
bombarded and the next morning the enemy was driven
out. He retaliated with 5 . 9 s and gas shells, killing three
men and wounding fifteen. The rain came down in
torrents as on the previous night; the next day the water
had risen over all the flooded area. The Battalion
advanced to Vicq about three miles east of Bruay and the
canal, reassembling at 3.00 p.m. On November 6th the
Third and Fourth Divisions attacked together, but the
Battalion was not employed except to form a defensive
flank for the 52nd Battalion which was still west of the
canal at Conde. The attack was successful and at 6.00
p.m. orders were received to advance. The 2nd C. M. R.
had gone through on the 5th and secured its objective
and the Battalion was to push on and join them in an
attack on the 7th. The Battalion went forward during
the inky-black night of the 6th-7th about nine kilometres, NOV. e,
some along the railway track which had been blown up
in a score of places, others along the main road. It was
due only to their splendid discipline and excellent leader
ship that they ever found their assembly positions.
The attack on the morning of the 7th was timed for NOV. 7,
8.00 o clock. The Battalion and the 2nd C. M. R.
crossed the only available bridge over the Honnelle River
and assembled roughly on the Belgian border, the Battal
ion attacking along the Mons road and the 2nd C. M. R.
to the north. Attached to it was one battery of heavy
machine-guns, two platoons of cyclists, and one forward
10
146 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
section of the 9th Canadian Field Artillery. The Battal
ion attacked on a two company frontage, "A" Company
on the right, "C Company on the left, "B" Company
in support and "D" Company in reserve. By 9.00 a.m.
"A" Company had gained touch with the enemy at the
village of Thulin. The 2nd Canadian Division was in
touch with them on their right; "C Company was
also at Thulin although held up by machine-guns in the
village. It was known before the attack that the enemy
had withdrawn but it was too late to alter the barrage.
Thulin was out of range and although the attached section
of artillery went into action on the Mons road and did
splendid shooting, heavier artillery was needed to deal
with the machine-guns protected by the houses. Every
thing was out of range on account of the rapidity of the
advance of the infantry.
The Battalion closed in on the village as much as pos
sible by means of short rushes. The companies waited
the remainder of the day for artillery support which they
had been asking for in every message but which never
came. In the evening the 7th Brigade came up and the
Princess Patricia s Canadian Light Infantry relieved them.
At 10.00 p.m. they marched out in the mud from their
last action to billets in Blanc Misseron near Quievrechain.
The Patricia s surprised the enemy during the night in
Thulin and occupied the town. The garrison of 300
fled before they could be rallied and a line was established
by morning on the eastern outskirts of the village.
This type of fighting was typical of the last few days;
a half-hearted stand by day and a retirement by night.
The rest of the Division pursued the Germans to the gates
of Mons. The war was over for the Battalion. It
followed in the train of the Division for the next four
days and joined in the triumphant entry into Mons.
N i9i8 8 During November 8th and 9th the Battalion was
billeted in the office buildings and in the hospital of a
steel plant. The men were very w r eary, they had had
little rest for a week; after getting across the canal they
had marched all night and had gone into action without
sleep so that they had been continuously on the move for
THE LAST HUNDRED DAYS 147
two days and nights. By the 10th they were ready for N 1 o > 1 g
the road again and moved to St. Ghislain in the densely-
populated area about five miles west of Mons. En route
the Battalion worked on the Valenciennes-Mons road
filling craters and shell holes. The companies took turns
in working on this broad highway with its paved centre
and tall trees, while the field kitchens ambled along and
supplied hot meals. As the companies moved into
billets the enemy dropped a few shells into the town
causing the last casualties in the Battalion; Lieutenant
A. E. Griffin, two other ranks and several civilians were
wounded.
And now the men became more concerned with the
civilians than with the military situation. They were
in Belgium and while their experience may have been
local, they were struck by the difference in conditions on
either side of the border. If the war had continued
longer than it did and there had been the same resistance
in Belgium as in France, conditions might have been
the same, for after all Ypres was in Belgium. The village
of Quievrechain, just inside the French border, was a
devastated ruin with a famished population, while a few
hundred yards away, in Belgium, the village of Quevrain
was intact with scores of able bodied men in the streets.
The shops were stocked with food and luxuries, and along
the Mons road the men saw, for the first time in months,
flocks of sheep, herds of cattle and even poultry. The
mines were not flooded and to all outward appearance
were working as usual. The factories and sugar refineries
were not demolished nor was the machinery moved to
Germany. The homes and the railway stations did not
show the effect of wanton destruction as in Valenciennes
a few miles away. However, the civilians looked on the
Canadian soldiers as their liberators and treated them as
such. There was the same gaiety and holiday-making
as in France.
On November llth the Division was fighting for Nov. n,
possession of Mons. There had been rumours the day
before that an Armistice had been signed but no con
firmation had been received. At 8.00 a.m. a special
Nov.
1918
148
4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Despatch Rider arrived from the Brigade advising that
the German authorities had accepted the Allies terms
and that hostilities would cease at 11.00 a.m. when all
troops would stand fast.
The war ended at the eleventh hour, on the eleventh
day of the eleventh month, nineteen hundred and
eighteen.
CHAPTER IX
ARMISTICE TO DEMOBILIZATION
" ^N the earlier days, when the armies were dead- NOV.
1 Q 1 S
locked and no end was in sight, the men talked
of the day when all would be over; they dis
cussed what their feelings might be, how they
would act, how they would celebrate. And
when it did come their reactions were disappointing
even to themselves. By a curious paradox, the great
celebrations were at home, in the big cities, while the
men at the front had little to say and the nearer they
were to the enemy the less demonstrative they were. To
them it meant so much that nothing could express their
feeling at the first announcement of the Armistice. As
soon as they came into contact with the civilians in the
towns, however, they gave vent to their emotions and
joined in the riotous celebrations of Peace.
The Battalion marched into Mons on November 12th Nov - 12
and was billeted in the town with Headquarters at No. 4
Grande Place. Gaiety ruled the hour, gratitude was on
the lips of every inhabitant, proclamations were posted
in complimentary recognition of the liberators of Mons.
Speeches by aldermen and deputies were printed and
distributed pronouncing the indebtedness of Belgium.
One discourse given by Monsieur Save on the day of the
deliverance of Mons was subsequently printed and posted
and is given here in literal translation: We respect
fully bow, with deep emotion, before the graves of your
comrades. In this moment we engrave on our hearts
the remembrance of what they were and of what they
have done for us, in order to hand down to our children
and to the grandchildren of our children, the richest
of heritages. In this hour, alas, over there beyond
149
150 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
the Atlantic, there are mothers, fathers, wives, children,
sweethearts, brothers and sisters, who await those
who will never return, not even knowing that they
rest here. From our hearts we send across the ocean
a warm, fraternal embrace. These families that we
know through the heroism of their sons, we hold to
our grateful breasts. Please God that they find con
solation before the sad news reaches them. Tell them,
we pray you, that this little corner of Belgian soil is
sacred to both of us , that it is part of Canada , a priceless
jewel, set in the midst of the resting place of our own,
for it holds in its bosom the remains of noble children of
Canada. Our heads bow before their tombs, but our
hearts, proud at being defended by them, shall cling
together to be the faithful guardians of the sacred rest of
your Brothers in Arms."
It was the good fortune of the Battalion to be in Mons
for a month after the Armistice. It was one of the fav
oured places , probably because of its historical connection
with the British Army as the place where they first
crossed swords with the German hordes in 1914. Its
name was always coupled with the first retreat and it was
the natural place to celebrate victory. There were
reviews, inspections and visits by many celebrities.
Following General Currie s entry on November llth,
Major-General Home, commanding the First Army, made
an official visit. He was received by the Burgomaster
of Mons, the Councillors and other officials in their robes
of office. After speeches there was a march-past in front
of the Hotel de Ville, where a temporary platform as
saluting base, was erected. The parade was an impres
sive military spectacle. It lasted two hours, every unit
in the Army was represented, the Battalion sending tw r o
officers and eighty other ranks under Captain N. V.
NOV. 27, Waddell. On November 27th His Majesty, Albert King
of the Belgians, made an official entry. The Canadian
Corps provided a Guard of Honour and picketted the
road along which he passed in a motor. A week later,
His Majesty King George V, passed through, unofficially.
He descended from his motor at the entrance to the
ARMISTICE TO DEMOBILIZATION 151
Grande Place and walked through the pressing crowds to
the road leading to Brussels.
On all of these occasions, the town was filled with
soldiers and civilians who lined the decorated roads,
cheering their King and Generals. They were gay days;
the cafes swarmed with patrons who continued to cele
brate, the waiters gave change in the paper currency of
four or more countries which vied in colour and variety
with the liquors of the estaminets. The theatres were
opened and the celebrated "Dumbells" played "H.M.S.
Pinafore" to crowded houses. This company, with many
of the same personnel who played at Mons, is still in
existence.
The men were kept fit by continuous physical and
recreational training. As soon as they began to think of
their post-war vocations the Army was ready with a com
prehensive scheme of education. It embraced the re
training of men in the skilled trades and the re-fitting of
men for professional life. Throughout the winter a
curriculum of educational training was pursued. Many
interesting lectures on economical and historical subjects
were given by men specially chosen for this work.
The military ball given by the officers of the Third
Canadian Division on December 9th at the Palace Dec. 9,
d Aremberg, in Brussels, was a brilliant function. It had
an historical significance in being the first to be given by
the British since the Duchess of Richmond s famous ball
from which Wellington went to meet Napoleon at Water
loo. It reflected the strange turn of events in a hundred
years. As in June, 1815, all the prominent citizens of
Brussels were invited. The officials of the town added
colour in their robes of office, fair and beautiful ladies
gave charm to the setting. Many officers of surrounding
British forces were invited and in all a thousand people
danced to the international music. There w r ere other
balls with less pomp and grandeur, but equally successful.
The officers of the Battalion gave a dance in the Hotel
de Ville, on December 5th. It was one of many similar
entertainments which closed this gay period in Mons.
After many rumours as to the probabilities of the
152 4ra CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
Battalion going with the Army of Occupation to the
Rhine, it was finally known that the Third Division
was to return to Canada. Its departure from Belgium
and France was accomplished in easy stages. The Bat
talion marched at intervals east from Mons and north,
circling around the Battlefield of Waterloo, returning
west to the Roubaix, Tournai and Lille area from which
they entrained to le Havre whence they crossed the channel
to England. This gentle exodus took exactly two months.
1 1, Q n December 1 1th, after one month in Mons, the Battalion
marched to Morlanwelz and in the next five days to
Luttre, Vieux Genappe and Chapelle St. Lambert, five
miles east of the Battlefield of Waterloo. From the 16th
to the 29th, they rested in this rolling country, with
scenery not unlike Ontario. The men visited the historic
surroundings and parties took the tram at Mont St.
Jean into Brussels.
Their last Christmas on foreign soil was spent in these
rural billets. Parcels arrived from Canada and were
opened at the Christmas dinner which was served by
companies in a large Hall in the village. The tales are
many of this dinner of roast pork, in lieu of unobtainable
turkeys, and the potent punch, but the crowning item
was the announcement by the commanding officer that
the Battalion was to move west to a seaport and thence
to Canada and demobilization. This magic word was
the keynote of the day. It was, naturally, the most
joyful of the four Christmas Days the Battalion spent at
the Front. There was another dance in the evening,
the men found accomplished dancers in the Belgian
lasses of the village, who went in wooden shoes and the
most of them without stockings, because the Germans
had long since taken all the wool out of Belgium. Their
sabots were soon discarded, at the demand of the
strenuous music of the Battalion Pipers.
Dec. 29, On December 29th they moved west past Waterloo
to Rhode-St. Genese, where they were billeted in the
large paper factory of Madame de Meurs, who enter
tained the officers at dinner and is remembered as a
charming and generous hostess. The next day they
ARMISTICE TO DEMOBILIZATION 153
marched to Goyck, where they rested long enough to see
the New Year in. The officers had their mess in the
Chateau de Saffleburg, whose Chdtelain, the Baron von
Oldeneel, gave his wines of rarest vintage for the New
Year s dinner, of which he was the genial host.
In four days the Battalion moved due west through
Lierde St. Martin, Renaix, Herrines to Dottignies, where
they arrived on January 4th and remained for a month.
Dottignies is a small town in a densely populated indus
trial area on the Belgian frontier five miles east of
Tourcoing and Roubaix. The inhabitants were very
friendly and the Battalion soon became acquainted by the
immediate inauguration of a dance. The Belgian youths
who had been expatriated by the Germans were returning
daily to their former employment in the mills and fields;
a football match between them and the Battalion added
to the friendly influences which made the rest at Dottig
nies so pleasant. About the middle of the month,
General Sir Arthur Currie visited the Brigade and explain
ed that the Third and Fourth Divisions had not relieved
the First and Second in Germany because of the difficulties
in transportation and that the Third Division had been
chosen to return to Canada first. This was the last stop
of any duration in Belgium. The month was occupied
with the preparation of nominal rolls, inspections and
medical boards, sports and vocational training, and
finally, on February 6th, they moved to Blandain and
handed over their horses at Renaix. On the 9th they
marched to Baisieux on the Franco -Belgian border be
tween Lille and Tournai, where they entrained the same
evening.
The Battalion travelled from Belgium across Northern
France, which many knew only too well, to le Havre,
where they arrived two days later. Two days and nights Feb n -
in the same train, which was a typical troop-train, gave
rise to many humorous incidents on this last ride out of
the country. The train soon became a personal thing.
Early in the trip the men began calling the engine "Rod",
and the train "Rod s Train. ; "Rod" became less
mechanical as the journey progressed, he would rear up
154 4TH CANADIAN MOUNTED RIFLES
and suddenly bolt, throwing everyone off their feet and
upsetting the stoves, and just as the snow-clad fields
would begin to pass in quick succession and become
blurred in the revolving landscape, "Rod" would take a
whimsical turn and slow down to a ridiculous pace. It
is told how a Brigade Captain placed his trust in "Rod"
and went in search of food at one of the halts and was
left behind, but knowing "Rod s" weakness for halts,
pursued him on foot and eventually caught him asleep
on a siding. The troops passed over the old battlefields,
covered with the winter s blanket, through Picardy and
Normandy to the seaport of le Havre, where they
remained for three days and then crossed the Channel to
Weymouth, dis-embarking on the morning of February
14th and entraining for Bramshott.
The next three weeks in England were weeks of docu
mentation, medical boards, inspections, leave and edu
cational training. Everyone was impatient to get home
and be demobilized. The time seemed endless but
rumours of final inspection before departure buoyed up
the restless spirits and finally, on March 7th, in a terrific
downpour of rain, Brigadier-General D. L. Draper,
C. M. G., D. S. O., presented the King s Colour to Lieu
tenant W. A. MacLachlan and the Battalion Colour to
Lieutenant A. E. Dyke. Promptly at three in the after
noon, as General Draper came on the ceremonial parade,
the Battalion gave the general salute. The Colour was
presented and then consecrated by Major Barton. It was
an impressive ceremony which was carried out in spite
of the unsympathetic rain in such a smart and creditable
manner that General Draper, in an address to the troops,
complimented them on their discipline and appearance
and paid glowing tribute to their splendid record at the
Front. He commented on the unusually large number
of casualties which the Battalion had suffered and con
gratulated the few "originals" who had the good fortune
to return with the unit. Only two officers (Lieut.-
Colonel W. R. Patterson, D.S.O., and Lieutenant C. Lea,
M.C.), and thirty men of the original unit returned.
Four other officers (Captain L. B. Bumstead, M.C.,
ARMISTICE TO DEMOBILIZATION 155
Captain R. G. Layton, D.C.M., Captain N. V. Waddell, Mar.
M.C. and Lieutenant F. B. Fairbrother) who came back
with the unit, went over in the ranks.
Receiving the Colour was the last event in the Battalion
annals overseas. The following day they entrained at
Liphook for Liverpool, were addressed by the Lord
Mayor of Liverpool, who spoke of the new bond between
the Mother country and the Dominions and wished the
troops bon voyage. Together with other units of the
Third Division, they went aboard the S. S. Carmania,
which weighed anchor in the darkness of the 9th and in
the early morning was leaving behind the emerald fields
of Cork and Kerry on its way to Halifax.
The men began to crowd the decks with the breaking
of dawn on March 17th to catch the first glimpse of Mar 17
Canada. At 8.30 a.m. the massed bands of the 8th
Brigade were playing as the Carmania warped into the
dock. Officials, newspaper reporters and telegraph repre
sentatives came on board and it was not until afternoon
that the Battalion was despatched on two trains which
divided at Moncton, the first going by the southern and
the second by the northern route to Montreal, where
they rejoined and proceeded to the North Toronto
station, arriving at 8.00 p.m. on March 20th, the second Mar - 20.
train pulling in fifteen minutes behind the first.
Toronto was the home of the Battalion and the city
had prepared to welcome back its own. Thousands of
relatives crowded the station, throngs lined the streets
and swelled the Armouries, making one of the greatest
ovations which the city ever witnessed. The Battalion
with difficulty formed up on Yonge Street, wearing their
steel helmets and war regalia and marched in column-of-
route to Bloor Street, through Queen s Park to the
Armouries. In front of the Parliament Buildings, Brig
adier-General J. Gunn, Commanding Military District
No. 2, was waiting with his staff and other officials on a
saluting base and for the last time the Battalion gave
"eyes left. : At the Armouries families and friends
swarmed in, surrounded the Battalion and captured
it with a last outburst of welcome. Lieut. -Colonel
Mar.

W. R. Patterson, D.S.O., who left Toronto with
the Regiment as an officer of "A" Squadron, and who
commanded it through Passchendaele, The Last Hundred
Days and who brought it home, addressed the Battalion,
every man of which he knew by name, bidding them
farewell and Godspeed. Finally, the Battalion, after
four and a half years of honourable service to King and
Country, was given its last command "4th C. M. R,
Dismiss."
APPENDIX I.
THIS appendix contains the nominal roll and record
of services of the officers, warrant officers, non
commissioned officers and men who served with
the Fourth Canadian Mounted Rifles. It includes
a summary of the record of services of the commanding
officers and also of those officers attached to the regiment.
These records have been supplied by the Department of
National Defence, Ottawa.
A glossary of abbreviations, Appendix II, used in
the regimental records, will be found at the end of this
appendix.
There are no dates of enlistment given, but those
men who were of the original unit will be recognized
as those who went to France with the unit on October
24th, 1915.
In almost every case the date on being struck off
the strength (s.o.s.), is the date of demobilization in
Canada or England. Where the date of being struck
off the strength of the unit, or being transferred to
another unit, or for any other reason, is known, it is
given. This applies especially to the officers of whom
more information was available through regimental
records.
