BURSTING SHELLS IN BATTLE
, They Sometimes Kill a Soldier Without
Even Hitting Hiin
The Loudon '"Lancet" tells of sev- '
■ eral cases of soldiers who have been |
| killed by shells, although the men were
I not touched.
"M. Sencert," it says, "reports to |
the Societe de Chirurgie the case of a j
' man who was killed without being hit, ;
though he was less than a yard away
j from the point of explosion of a burst- j
i ing shell of large caliber. He had not
i even been grazed by metallic frag- j
ment and had nc external w : ound, but!
at the necropsy both his lungs were
found to be hurst.
"Many deaths under similar cireum- j
, stances have been noted sincfc the out- !
| break of the war, for which various i
more or less complicated explanations
have been given. Fulminating toxic '
! gases from the explosion and sudden ;
nervous shock have been suggested as |
causes. M. Sencert points out that j
I these hypotheses are unnecessary and \
that a purely mecnanical cause is a
I sufficient explanation."
