The man turned and resumed his
Vigil. Trotter crept up softly and lay
beside him, and a murmured conversa
tion followed. Raleigh crouched be
hind and waited. Beyond the heads
of the sentries he could see a sprawling
maze of wire, linked here and there j
to iron pickets that stuck crazily out j
of the tumbled earth. Beyond lay a
black desolation, which seemed to swell !
and shrink as the lights threw shadows !
over it. When a Very light fell near
them it lit a low, crazy ridge ahead,
which might have been the German !
parapet—so near that it thrilled him.
and. in turn, made him vaguely afraid. ;
As Trotter drew back he asked the
question.
"Yes,” said Trotter in a low voice,
"that’s the Boche front line. Boche '
looking over this way now, maybe, just 1
as we are—d'you play cricket?" he
added somewhat irrelevantly.
"A bit,” said Raleigh.
‘‘Could you chuck a cricket ball that I
distance?”
“I think so.”
"Then you could do the same with a
Mills bomb.”
There was a pause. Raleigh smiled.
Dot knowing what to say.
"But you von’t. though.” said Trotter,
leading the vay back toward the front
line. "Come on; let sleeping dogs lie.
If we was to throw a bomb you can
bet yer boots the old Boche would
chuck one back, and Mr. Digby and
Mr. ’Arris, lying there, are both married
men with kids. Wouldn't be —be
cricket, would it?" he added brightly.
“No,” said Raleigh. But it was all
very strange. It was so different from
his thoughts of war. "Two married
men with kids" lying there in the dark
60 yards from the Germans. No, it
wouldn’t be cricket to chuck a bomb
at the enemy, because they would throw
one back; and that wouldn't be right,
with “two married men with kids” lying
there. He had never thought of that
before. A soldier was a soldier—and
that was all there was to it. He fought
and, if necessary, died. It had not oc
curred to Raleigh before that the death
of any one of these men would leave
a trail of unquenchable sorrow behind.

Back in the front line once more, he
followed Trotter to the further end.
where lay the first sentry group of
the neighboring company. There was
, not much to see. The company guarded >
a wide section of the thinly held front j
! line. Every 50 yards they had a sentry I
group of six men, sometimes with a
Lewis gun. Two men were always
standing on the firestep, looking out
into No Man's Land; two, near by,
! dozed on the firestep; two more slept
! usually in a little alcove dug in the
| trench side with a ground-sheet cover
ing its entrance. A corporal was in
charge of each group, and as Trotter
! came along a few words passed. Gen
; rrally Trotter would stand up beside
the sentries and talk to them, discuss
the land ahead. At one place they
1 could see the ruins of Beauvais Farm;
1 a gaunt finger of brickwork pointed to
] the sky as if accusing the heavens for
■ what had fallen and destroyed it.
I Sometimes Trotter would load the Very i
' pistol, crouch in the trench, and fire j
the light at a steep angle toward the 1
j 3erman trenches. He would then go j
! quickly down the line and jump on the
firestep to watch the light fall brilliant
ly over the enemy’s position.
"Always keep the pistol low when
you fire,” counseled Trotter, “or they
may see the flash. And never stand
up just where you fire it, or you may
get sniped.”
He turned to Raleigh and smiled, j
They were standing together some
where in the center of the piece of line !
: they guarded, leaning back against the |
trench wall in a deep fire bay. The 1
night had grown quieter now. The i
machine guns rapped out less frequent- I
ly, as if the Germans were growing j
tired and sleepy. Once, several vicious 1
little explosions came from the right, !
and Raleigh could see showers of yellow !
sparks shoot up from the ground.
“Aerial darts.” said Trotter, "nasty
little German shells which they fire off
rods, sort of like a catapult. On "B”
Company, I should guess. Good old
B' Company.”
He turned and glanced at Raleigh
with a little chuckle of laughter. |
Raleigh returned the glance as Trotter j
looked away. There was something very !
likable about this fat cheerful man, i
THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, T). C., THURSDAY. JUNE -12. 1930.
who gave off a faint odor of carbolic
soap. During supper Raleigh had had
a back view of Trotter, who had sat
sideways to the table to get more room;
he had seen a rough red neck, pitted
with little scars; a large fold of fat
projected when Trotter raised his head.
He had made a good deal of noise w r ith
his food, and wiped his mouth with the
back of his big red hand. Raleighs
instinct for friendship had never per
mitted snobbery to become part of his
creed, but his upbringing had made it
impossible for him to meet and under
stand those who had been cast in
rougher molds. At home he had learnt
to enjoy, under his father's encourage
! ment, the society of every one round
{ Alum Green, no matter w r hat their
station. Often he had accompanied
old Medley on his round of delivering
letters, but these associations had never
extended to their homes and eating
with them. Trotter had surprised him
considerably at first—the only Lon
doner of this kind he had met before
was the school porter at Barford. w-ho
often on dark Winter evenings sighed
loudly for the lights of Bermondsey.
Raleigh was never for an instant con
scious of a class superiority; he simply
felt that such a gulf must exist between
himself and these people that no effort
of his or theirs could bridge it. As
they dressed differently, spoke different
ly. walked differently, must even think
differently, then for each other's sakes
they should go their different w’ays. It
was only natural that he should re
gard Trotter as an odd being which had \
never crossed his path before; it was ;
natural, too, that the thought of pass
ing three hours alone with him in the
trenches should be a source of keen
embarrassment. What could they talk j
about? what possible link could they j
find to join each other on common I
ground.
And now, as they stood resting to
gether in this deep fire bay, Raleigh
realized that over an hour had passed
without the slightest embarrassment.
True, there had been a great deal to
see, an amazing experience of mystery
and excitement, but they had talked
steadily all the while, always quietly,
sometimes in a whisper, when at the
sap head —although the best whisper
Trotter could manage was an odd
husky, croaking sound. Trotter, of j
course, had done most of the talking.
He never tired of explaining the equip
ment of trench warfare to the boy, the
odd sounds, the mysterious lights. He
listened attentively to Raleigh's ques
tions, and answered with measured care.
But now, as they stood alone, with
nothing for the moment to distract
them, Raleigh began to feel a longer
pause between Trotter’s explanations;
he realized that Trotter was fighting as
hard as he could to keep things going, j
But the battle was a losing one. Soon
a long silence fell. Trotter sang quietly
, the words of an old music hall song. ■
; and Raleigh gave a little laugh to show j
| his appreciation. What could he say? j
j He realized with shame that Trotter j
I had led almost every topic of conversa- !
tion, and he had followed lamely be
hind. What would interest this friendly
little man? Motoring? Surely not—it
would embarrass him to admit that he
had never had a car. What could he j
know of a school like Barford? He was
thinking so furiously that Trotter’s i
voice quite startled him.
"You married?” he asked—then ap- j
parently relenting, hastily went on—
*‘er. course not—l don't suppose you’ve j
been out of school long?”
"No. I only left a few months ago.” I
"Were you top?” inquired Trotter. |
Raleigh feverishly groped for under -
j standing. Top? "No.” he said. “I I
! wasn’t frightfully good at work, I'm |
| afraid.”
“Oh, well.” mused Trotter, "it’s over !
20 years since I done with school—and j
I wasn’t great at work neither. What’s
your part of the world?”
“I live down in the New Forest.”
"What, Bournemouth way?”
"Yes.”
"I used to do from Bournemouth, all
along the coast to Margate, till I got ]
i pushed into a London district.”
S "How do you mean?” inquired
j Raleigh.
I 'Traveling.” said Trotter vaguely.
"That must be rather interesting,
seeing the country?"
“You soon see it all once, then it
don’t hold anything new. The job to
i get's a London district—you get home
iat nights then. I was doing S. E.
down to Sevenoaks when I joined up.
I Gawd knows what'll happen when I go
back. What's your job going to be?”
“I did think of doctoring—but I’m
not very keen. I rather thought of
engineering.”
"My young nephew’s engineering—in
the shops at Birmingham.”
Again a silence fell. Then Raleigh
remembered Trotter's allusion to throw
ing a cricket ball into the German
trenches. Osborne too had asked him
if he played cricket—perhaps they
talked cricket sometimes. He turned
to Trotter and asked him if he played.
"Cricket?” said Trotter. "Oh, I used
to play years ago for the old Grass
hoppers at Clapham. ’Ad a pitch on
the common—used to get a decent
crowd along on a Saturday—used to
call me ‘Old Banghard' because I tried
to wallop ”
He chuckled to himself and began
to warm up; he was in the middle of
a match in which he w-as 20 not out,
! when a sergeant loomed round the
j corner and stood beside them.
| “Barton's got a bad cough, sir. I
was thinking we better keep 'im out of
| the sap and put 'im on duty back here.”
"Yes.” agreed Trotter; “ ’e's making
| too much row up there.”
j Raleigh had noticed a thin, hacking
j cough each time they had passed the
I group which held the sap.
The cergeant accompanied the two
officers to the dugout where Barton
lay, and Trotter crawled in to see the
man.
Raleigh found the sergeant a pleasant
I companion as they waited outside.
"Just got here, sir?”
] "Yes.”
"You’ve come to the right company,
j sir.”
| Perhaps it was this remark by the
i sergeant which led to it, but quite sud
| denly Raleigh found himself telling his
I companion that he had been at school
I with Stanhope and that they had long
i been friends.
Trotter reappeared and instructed
i the sergeant to remove Barton to a
j post in the support line where his
cough was less likely to be heard.
And when the two officers started
upon another tour of their trenches,
Raleigh walked with a light heart be
cause of some things the sergeant had
said of Capt. Stanhope, his friend. _

Abandoned Quarry.
By the Associated Press.
