178 WITH THE SERBS IN MACEDONIA for more guns they were hurried up-country and handed over to the Serbian Army. Manned by British Tommies, under the command of Captain Edlestone and Lieutenants Whitelaw and Bakes, they put in a lot of excellent shooting. The Serbs thought a very great deal of them— because they were British. Day by day they pounded away, and were pounded at in return. Naturally their long, eventful life '' had taken it out of them,'' but they went merrily on, seven hundred yards short of their proper range, and having practically turned themselves into howitzers. Ultimately their position was so heavily shelled that they had to move, and they went to a new position, with new tubes, and began a fresh lease of life. Busy times for us did not last long. Quite soon we again found ourselves up against the most trying aspect of modem warfare— the waiting in between. For various reasons, mostly French, our spring offensive failed, and once more we were kicking our heels in idleness. Another Ford Company, just out from England, came up from the Base to assist us to do nothing. It was very hot and very dull.

Two joy-riders were returning about one in the morning, when the car by a swerve just managed to avoid something lying in the road. A few minutes earlier we had passed another car travelling in the opposite direction—on official business it is to be hoped. '' What was that ? " asked the driver. '* A man,'' replied the passenger. '' The other car must have knocked him down and gone '' '' on ! '' I only just missed him,'' said the driver. Looked dead— dead as a doornail," said the passenger. Our eyes met. We pulled up and sat there regarding each other for a second or two. The situation was a delicate one. '' Oh, hang it, we must go back and see," said the passenger. '' If he's dead we can shove him to the side of " said the man at the the road, out of the way ! wheel. '' '' If he isn't " said the passenger. It's up to you," said the driver. the senior— you'll be blamed ! you like ! " '' You're We'll go on if
