It turned out that several of us had been told off to conduct drafts to their units in the field.
I had to take men to three battalions of another division, and it was quite an undertaking. There were rations for emergency and for the journey to be taken over and distributed, and the men loaded on the train and generally looked after. We stopped at one place for half a day, which meant de-train- 82 LETTERS FROM FRANCE ing and re-entraining. We reached our journey's end very late last night, and... I was able to turn over my party intact, which was better luck than some had, several men having been lost en route ^ which is not unusual.
Four of us spent the night in a French town of a fair size. There were, however, only two hotels, and after knocking the peevish proprietors to their second-story windows, we were assured, in spite of vigorous protest on our part, that they were " complet " : "Plus de chambres, messieurs." I was the only one of the party who could speak French at all, and as you know I am not unusu- ally proficient ; and the more desperate I became the less words I could think of, especially standing in the middle of the street, talking to a second- story window.
