garden gate of a ruined cottage on the right-hand side of the Menin
Road, about 1,000 yards beyond the level crossing of the Ypres-Roulois
Railway in one of three graves. In a letter written to his parents
the day he was killed he said: “At 2.30 a.m. this morning the Germans
started a terrific bombardment, using their vile gas. Our lads were
splendid and stuck it. About 5.30 a.m. we got a message to reinforce
the firing line, with my Company, ‘B.’ Unfortunately there was very
bad communication, and our 1st Platoon did not reinforce. I went out
to try and find out what was happening, and worked my way up to the
front line, about 1,000 yards ahead, and found out what was happening,
and then returned to our trenches. ‘B’ Company immediately pushed
forward, as the line wanted reinforcing, but I stayed back to report
to Headquarters. After doing that I started with one other fellow
to work my way up. The shrapnel was terrific, but our luck was in,
and we reached a ruined house just behind the firing line, and found
there a good many wounded, poor beggars. I got a stretcher party
together and we pulled in several badly wounded fellows in a field,
but unfortunately they sniped at us, the brutes! Two of our poor chaps
were hit. Since then we have done what we can to make them comfortable,
but it is awfully hard for them. We can do so little for them till
dark, and even then it isn’t safe. The shelling is something terrific,
one burst on this house knocking bits over our wounded, and gave a
few more nasty cuts. All we can do is to keep boiling water--it is
not safe to drink otherwise--and give them sips of tea and Bovril, of
which we have luckily got a certain amount. Unfortunately it is very
hot, and their thirst must be terrific. I know mine is. It is just
that fiendish gas. I have had nothing to eat since 7 p.m. last night,
it is now 4 p.m. Only a few sips of different things, and this gas
keeps up a horrible choking feeling, which prevents one working as
hard as one wants to. What will happen to us I do not know. I think
we are advancing now, and in that case all ought to be all right”; a
Sergt.-Major W. Dunlop, Durham L.I., wrote: “I was with him on that
memorable day. ‘Whit Monday,’ for about 10½ hours, at about 500 yds.
from the Germans, without a British soldier in front and about 1,000
yds. from the nearest troops behind, attending to the wounded. First,
I set away with a stretcher, my companion was either shot or fainted,
so I went across to the ruins of an old cottage. There were a dozen
or so wounded, with a wounded Corporal trying to dress the other poor
souls. I could get no assistance there, so had to go to our reserves
behind for someone to help me to get the stretcher in. I returned with
two brave chaps, and on my return met Lieut. Haythornthwaite. He asked
particulars and said it was certain death to venture out. I said, ‘I’m
risking it.’ His answer was, ‘If you go, I’m coming also.’ The four of
us set out, but could not find man or stretcher, and it was only by the
protection of God Himself that we returned, for nothing human could
have protected us from the murderous fire the brutes sent towards us,
but not one of us was hit, thanks to God. It was after that I found the
qualities of your son. The dressings of the wounded were not as they
should have been, bandaged by little experienced hands, so your son
and myself set about to try to stop the bleeding of the wounded....
After a while we got all made as comfortable as we could under the
circumstances.... So he set to, and got a fire going, and we got some
Bovril made. It was a God-send for the poor souls, as the water was
not fit to drink if it had not been boiled, and the continual cry of
the wounded was ‘water.’ It was during the time the water was boiling
I saw your son sitting and writing the letter you eventually got,
but the contents he did not mention at the time. After a while, the
counter-attack started. Our troops started to advance. What a sight!
Men falling right and left, but still the advance continued until they
reached our cottage. Your son collected men on one side of the cottage,
myself the other, and got them to dig themselves in so as to stop the
brutes from advancing, and after a while we got a position formed which
seemed strong enough to hold them in check. And then came more work,
the poor souls who had been shot were either helped, or carried to us
for ‘First Aid,’ and on several occasions your son and myself went
out and brought men in, and it was on one of these that he got hit,
the bullet passing through his left shoulder. I was dressing a chap
with a finger blown off when it happened, but two men--I don’t know
their names--carried him in, and set about dressing him. He called for
me, and asked me to adjust his bandages, and said, ‘If there are any
men about doing nothing tell them to try and get a rifle as every man
is needed.’.... He was hit somewhere about 5 p.m., and after he was
wounded he was as calm and cool as ever. He ordered a man--I don’t know
his name--to take everything from his pockets, spectacles included,
with the instructions, ‘See these things handed over to my people.’
The man repeated the words as he gave me the things I forwarded on
to you.” Private James White, Royal Fusiliers, who brought him into
the ruined cottage after he was wounded, in an interview with Lieut.
Haythornthwaite’s father said that shortly after 4 p.m. the British
counter attack began in great force. The Northumbrian Brigade led
the attack, and one platoon as it drew near to the ruined cottage in
one of its rushes, was left without its officer. He fell wounded and
was brought in and laid with the others. Lieut. Haythornthwaite then
said to him “Shall I take your men on?” He went forth to do so, and
was almost immediately shot himself, and was left on the field until
brought in by Private James White. This account is not inconsistent
with that given by Sergt-Major Dunlop, as he admits that he did not
actually see him fall, as he was busily engaged with the wounded.
Lieut. Haythornthwaite was a keen athlete and long-distance runner at
Haileybury. He won the half mile, under 16, in 1910, and the open mile
in 1912. He also won his College Colours at Sidney Sussex, Cambridge,
for athletics and football, and organised the Regimental Sports whilst
in training at Dover.
