_Told by Malcolm Savage Treacher_
The author is a sergeant in a famous regiment, and has been invalided
to England after an exciting time in the Near East. In these unusual
articles he sets down a number of little stories--cameos of the Great
War--told to him by soldiers during his seven months' sojourn in
various hospitals. The incidents are authenticated by the names and
regiments of the men concerned. "All the stories are related exactly
as I heard them," he writes in the _Wide World Magazine_.
