The Paris correspondent of the London _Chronicle_ telegraphs:
“In the fighting at Compiègne, when the British captured several German
guns, the Dragoon Guards did wonderful work. There was one tremendous
cavalry charge, in which these dragoons were accompanied by their
farrier, armed only with his hammer, which he wielded with deadly
effect, according to the men.”
“TOO COMMUNICATIVE”
An amusing instance of the thoroughness of the German censor was shown
by a letter received the other day by a woman whose husband, an American
business man, is temporarily detained in Berlin.
The envelope was addressed in her husband’s handwriting and was stamped
with the censor’s official seal. Inside the envelope was a slip of paper
on which was scrawled in a queer-looking foreign script:
“Your husband, madam, is well, but too communicative.”
