WITH THE HUNS Cartersville Boy, Now a First Lieutenant Writes Interestingly of Eperience in First Line Trenches. First Lieutenant Ben Lumpkin, a Cartersville boy, has been in actual combat with the Germans ,bui. came out unscathed, according to letters just received in this city. In a letter dated July 25th, he writes very interestingly of some of his ex periences, and by permission of the family, we are permitted to publish it in full. It follows: Prance. July 25th, 1918. Dear Mamma: Time to write once more as 1 am back in rest area once more after going into the line for eight days. For four days this division hit hard knocks and took back a gerat deal of territory, captirred about 3.000 Germans and killed as many, captured a lot of ar tillery and other property and now are getting ready for another “scrap.” 1 was in a forward position with my pla toon and was glad to get relieved at 3 a. m. on the morning of my birthday. That sank day I went into a house to get some sleep and had some one come in and steal my watch and a German pistol. Didn’t receive any presents ex cept the relief. Am writing you on some German field message blanks, which I took at my last position. I have seen some great sights, gruesome and comical. You can imagine seeing 3,000 German prisoners coming by, also as many more scattered over the landscape, wheat fields full of them, fields of ripe, yellow wheat almost turned under by shell fire, dead horses everywhere, wagons upturned, etc. One evening our company was ordered to report to Major Theodore Rosevelt at a certain point, so we started out with the men, guns and ammunition loaded in big trucks, each truck holding about 40 men. We had almost gotten to our destination when we were stopped by our infantry talking in whispers and told we were in their first line and that our destination was in enemy terri tory. I had to take (he trucks down into “no mans land” to a place big enough to turn around in and bring them back into our lines. Nothing happened to us luckily. The next day one of our men was talking to a Ger man prisoner and was told that the Germans had seen 5 big tanks come toward them and then turn round and go back. We had been mistaken for tanks and had not been fired on. One night while going forward we met an American soldier 16 years old bringing in a German prisoner about the same age—two kids. The German kid was tickled to death to be a pris oner and the American kid was just as tickled to have his first prisoner and to be going hack from the first line. Here is a souvenir for you “a -five mark bill.” Well as ever, love to all. BEN. Deputy Sheriff Hicks arrested Bob Gibby last Friday afternoon. Gibby is said to have been a deserter from ' Camp Wheeler. When apprehended at j the railroad station, he denied that he was the man wanted. The officer in sisted that he was, and he consented to | arrest, asking that he be allowed to get his money back for a ticket he had just bought. Keeping an eye on his man, t Deputy Hicks saw him attempt to es cape by jumping from the station win dow, but the ruse failed to work, be cause the officer grabbed him as he ' reached the sidewalk. Gibby was plac ed in the county jail, and later turned over to the military authorities, to be tried by courtmartial. Director-General McAdoo has in structed all railroads in the Ignited States to make a special one cent a mile each way to the Confed erate Veterans Reunion.
