The real fighting was taking place fifteen kilometres further along the road, at a place called Bapeaume. All day on Friday there was very heavy fighting here on the left centre, and a victory was announced by the French Ministry of War. I did not see the victory. I saw only the retreat of some of the French forces engaged in the battle.
It is heartrending to see poor beasts stumbling forward at every step at the very last gasp of their strength until they fall never to rise again. But more pitiful even than this drift back from Bapeaume were the scenes which followed immediately as I turned back into the town.
