Cairn Erected In Memory of Old Privateers

LIVERPOOI.-. N s Jul)’ 17 - 4CP)—A cairn has been erected here by the Canadian Historic sites and Monuments Board in memory of the Liverpool privateersmen who defended Nova Bcotimi and Brit- ish shipping and trade when the mother-country was at war in the early days of the United states.

the richest prizes were and the warships weren‘t Barss and his schooner brought a steady stream of capturde ships into this port during the first year oi that war.

“All awake! The Liverpool Packet hss again raided our shores." Fre- quent warning of this nature sp- peared in Boston and other New England newspapers.

The Packet carried only iive guns, but among her 44 prizes were ships carrying anything up to 18 guns—brigs, sloops. and scliooners, peaceful merchantment and airmen privateers

Once she captured a prize a day ior iive days; another time She took seven ships in a. nine-day stretch. Most of the time prizes were captured at see. but she was known to have crept into harbors and singled out ships which she towed away to her home port

But the career of yoiiiriful Joseph Barss, privaleer. came abruptly to an end in July, 1813. oil the coast oi Maine when the schooner Thomas ran him down. The Liverpool Packet was captured and he was sent home on parole. Later the vessel was recaptured by a Nova. Scolinn prlvateer and set out on her old trade again but without the wizardry of her former skipper she met with a unusual success.

A grand-daughter oi the fam- ous privatcer spoke at the unveil- ing oi the cairn and told, among others stories she knew oi the hardships involved in the priva- teering game.

"Some oi their ships were cap- tured and crews imprisoned. In one year by shipwreck oi en- counters, 22 women were made wid- ows and 100 children were leit fatherless in this little town '

Activities oi the Liverpool priva- teers spread through the French and Spanish wars. the American Revolution and the War of 1812. and D. C I-larveiy. provincial archivist who unveiled the monu- ment, said they played no small part in the moulding oi Canada as a BritLsh dominion.

"Volunteers, three places to the front!"

These words rang out shove the stillness of s. July night 01 1913 11" France. A thin khaki-clad line stood in formation as the command came irom the “siit.lpper" oi the battered and nerve-shattered sur- vivors oi the First Irench Mortar oi the American Army. Sunni?‘ seven days oi gruelling conilict in holding the line near Montdidler had taken its awful toll. What did this new command mean? Clearly. it had the ominous note of trssedy In it. once more is heard the voice oi the commander: “Men, you are not to be rewarded with an anticip- ated end well-deserved rest. We are ordered to make hurried and iorced marches to a new point where tragedy and death are stalk- . It becomes my task to divide this battery, sending halt on toot. post-haste into a new Gethsemane. while the other hali must bring up our guns and supplies. Remember. volunteering now means woundings and death to us. and suffering un- told. who wants to go now? "When the call was sounded, out 01 two hundred men, one hundred ninety- nine stepped three paces to the iront. Only one remained in me rear, and this one was the writer 0! this story. However, when I saw those “buddies" of mine volunteer to a. man, I, too, advanced to the line oi volunteers. Thus began one of the most harrowing of all our ex- perience.-. oi the war. Forced marches under heavy packs under boiling suns, and without food or water. we were on our way to where Foch had discovered a glar- ing weakness in the enemy lines. It was time now ior the youth oi the American army to register. The great and mighty counter-offensive oi the Allies was to begin. The zero day was no be July 18th. just eight- een years ago today. British, Can- adian, Australian and French troops had done gloriously in the tragic days that had gone. It wu time now for a new and decisive blow to be struck by the Allies. Who was to launch it. and where was it to be launched? To this task the young army oi America was assigned, and the point oi attack was to be Scis-

sons.

All through the long night oi July 17th there moved quietly, yet stead- , ily the young manhood oi this new army on the way to the “iront," cautiously. the First and Second Divisions took up their positions with artillery well camouflaged. and infantry well concealed. The en- emy had long been entrenched in the hills In front oi solssons, and had least expected an attack at this point. But at 4 a. m. on the mom- ing of the 13th oi July the counter- ofiensive began. other great, battles had been fought, and many of these had become crucial hours in the drama 01 the war. Yet on that iateiul day was written the doom oi the German armies. The coun- ter-blow was struck, and irom this began the unglorious retreat oi the evenly It is the memory oi this occasion that provokes the writing of this article on the lath anniver- sary of the epochel event.

Five days were spent In this vici- ous attack. Early on the iii-st morn- ing the wrlter was near enough to observe with what complete surprise the enemy was dislodged from his entrenchments. A young bugler who had sounded his retreat was one 01 the first to full among the enemy. Reaching him I gave him 9. sip of water and in return he gave me his bugle upon which the retreat had been sounded. This same bugle is among my valued treasures of the war. For five days the enemy was pushed back. until at last they lodg- ed themselves‘ in the city of soissons where nests oi machine suns were lodged. on into these nests we marched until there was left in ev- ery iield a vast sea. of wounded and dead. Try as best we could. it was impossible to drive the enemy out. Five times on the aitemoon or July 28rd valiant assaults were made. each resulting in a ieeriul toll of sufiering and death.

Unable to advance iuriher, these two American divisions had to be relieved. soissons had to be talcen. The glorious task oi this counter- oflensive had to continue. and here was the point where further con- quest was to be made. Who and what troops could successfully carry on? It was at this point that the writer ii:-at gazed upon the sturdy.

on the iollowing morning they were solemnly interred by the writer.

But on into the lines moved these gallant Scots to undertake this new 1 task 01 dislodglng the enemy and at keeping up his retreat begun on the morning of the lath. Did they do it? How well it was done history is ‘ bound to relate. For the period of 4 four days these sturdy Scots hein- mered away at the enemy entrench- merits and machine gun nests. Therewere no frontal attacks as in our plans. Just that dogged. per- sistent drum-iire and shelling of positions until the enemy had to move out, and the Imperial; moved in. It was a great victory, accom- pllshed with but slight losses. where ours had been an awful toll.
