It had no soon ier struck than 1 made a run for cover and crawled into a shellhole. 1 would have liked to get farther away, but I didn't know where the next shell would burst and I thought 1 was fairly safe there, so I squatted down and let them blaze away. The only damage 1 suffered was from the mud which splattered up in my face and over my clothes. That was my introduction to a shell hole. and 1 resolved right there that the infantry could have all the shell hole fighting they wanted, but it did not appeal to me, though they live in them through many a long night and 1 had only sought shelter there for a few minutes. After the Germans had complete ly demolished my machine and ceased firing. I waited there a short time, fearing perhaps they might send over a lucky shot, hoping to get me after all. But evidently they concluded enough shells had been wasted on one man. 1 crawled out cautiously, shook the mud off, and I looked over in the direction where my machine had once been. There wasn't enough left for a decent souvenir, but nevertheless I got a few, "such as they were," and readily observing that nothing could be done with what was left. J made my way back to infantry headquarters, where I was able to phone in a report. A little later one of our auto- I mobiles came out after me and took ' me back to our aerodrome. Most of my squadron thought 1 was lost beyond a doubt and never expected to see me again: but my friend, Paul Kaney. had held out that 1 was all right, and as 1 was afterward told, said, "Don't send for another pilot: 1 that Irishman will.be back, it he lias to walk." And lie knew that the only thing that kept me from walking was the fact that our own automobile had been sent out to bring nie home. 1 had lots to think about that day, and 1 had learned many things; one was not to have too much confidence in my own ability. One of the men in the squadron told me that I had better not take those chances; that it was getting to be a long war and I would have plenty of opportunities to be killed without deliberately "wishing them, on" myself. Uater I was to learn the truth of his state ment. That night my "flight"—each squadron is divided into three flights, consisting of six men each—got ready to go out again. As I started to put on iny tunic I noticed that I was not marked up for duty as usual. I asked the commanding officer, a major, what the reason for that was, and he replied that he thought I had done enough for one day. However. I knew that if 1 did not go. someone else from another "flight" would have to take my place, and I in sisted upon going up with my patrol as usual, and the major reluctantly Consented. Had he known what was in store for me I am sure he wouldn't have changed his mind so readily. As it was we had only five ! machines for this patrol, anyway, because as we crossed the lines one | of them had to drop out on account ■ of motor trouble. Our patrol was up at 8 P. M., and up to within ten ! minutes of that liour it hAd been ■ entirely uneventful. At 7.r>o P. M„ however, while we were flying at a height of 16,000 feet, i we observed three other English 1 machines which were about 3,000 ' HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH feet below us pick a fight with nine Hun machines. 1 knew right then that we were In for It, because I could see over toward the ocean. a whole flock of Hun machines which evidently had escaped the attention of our scrappy countrymen below us. So we dove down on those nine Huns. There were eight of us to nine of them. But soon the other machines which I had seen In the distance, and which were flying even higher than we were, arrived on the scene, and when they, in turn, dove down on us, there was just twenty of them to our eight! Four of them singled me out. 1 was diving, and they dove right down after me, shooting as they came. Their tracer bullets were coming closer to me every moment. These tracer bullets are balls of fire which enable the shooter to fol low the course his bullets are tak ing and to correct his aim according ly. They do no more harm to a pilot if he is hit than an ordinary bullet, but if they hit the petrol tank, good night! When a machine catches tire In flight there is no way of putting it out. It takes less than a minute for the fabric to burn off the wings, and then the machine drops like an arrow, leaving a trail of smoke like a comet. As their tracer bullet came closer and closer to me 1 realized that my chances of escape were nil. Their very next shot, 1 felt must hit me. Once, some days before, when I was flying over the line 1 had watch ed a tight above me. A German ma i hine was set on fire, and dove down through our formation in flames on its way to the ground. The Hun was diving at such a sharp angle that both his wings came off. and as he passed within a few hundred feet of me I saw the look of horror upon his face. | Now, when 1 expected any mo ment to suffer a similar fate, I could not help thinking of that poor Hun's last look of agony. 1 realized that my only chance. la> in making an lmmerman turn. This maneuver was invented by a Ger man—one ol' tile greatest who ever ; flew and who was killed in action some time ago. Thus turn, which I made successfully, brought one of t their machines right in front of me. and as he sailed along barely ten yards away, 1 "had the drop" on him. and he knew it. His white face, and startled eyes I- can still see. He knew heyonii question that his last moment had come, because his position prevented his taking aim at me. while my nun pointed straight at him. My ftrsi tracer bullet passed within n ya.d of his head, the second looked as if it hit his shoulder, the third struck him in the neck, and then I let him have the whole works, and he went down in a spinning nose dive. All this time the three other Hun machines were shooting away at me. I could hear the bullets striking my machine one after another. I had not the slightest idea that I could ever beat off these three Huns, but there was nothing for me to do but fight, and my hands wprp full. Tn fighting, your machine is drop ! ping. dropping all the time. I {glanced at my instruments, and my 1 altitude was between S.OOO and 9,000 I feet. While I was still looking at [the instruments, the whole blamed works disappeared. A burst of bul lets went into the instrument board and blew it to smithereens, another | bullet went through my upper lip, , and lodged in my throat, and the next thing I knew was when I came r! to in a German hospital, the follow t ing morning at 5 o'clock.
