C")ck«liutt iiiul FroMt .V VV.i.mI lli-liaiin illWAyS nil llHTnl It was announced recently that Se- cond-Ueut. William B. McArthur. o( tbe l8t BatUllon Uoyal Scuts (MslUers, second son of Mr. and Mra. McArthur, of Danebury, Moiiteui uoad, Mew Maiden, has been awarded tliu MUilary Cross for consplcuoiiH Kallan- try at the Front. The deed for whIcU he received the award Is officially de- scribed as follows by the "Surrey Co- met." of May 20th last: â€" For conspicuous duterniinatlon when In charge of a working party. Witli twelve men he captured and brought back as prisoners over forty armed enemy. The gallant officer, who Is 22 years of ago. returned on leave from Franco last week, and by Koyul Co; luind, attended at HuckiuKhuiii I'alaoe on Wednesday moriiing to receive his de- coration at the hands of liis Majenly the King, along with a number of other young officers. The f'-iU story of the young officer's gallunc deed may now be told - a deed In which he displayed a coolness and presence of mind which enabled him to extricate himself and his small iiar- ty of men from a perilous position and at the same time capture as prison- er.5-of war no fewer than 45 armed Gfrmaunl > In the early morning of March 27th It was decided to explode three mines In the St. Kloi salient, and l.ieut. Mc- Arthur, with twenty men of the Uoyal Scots Fusiliers, were entrusted with some dangerous work in the vicinity of these mines. Before the Lieuten- ant and his men could return to sate ty the mines exploded and the con- tour of the ground was so altered by the explosions that in tlie darkness the party lost I heir way. As they Were proceedin:; cautiously in whut they thought wiis the direction of tlie British trenclips. five figures suddenly appeared in fri,iii of tliem. Immedi ately on Lieut. McArtliur cliallenHng the strangers, "Who goes tliere . ' - an illuminatit!j: sliell burst and rvoal- ed the helmet of a Cerman officer who was the lading man of the five "Halt:" sliouted Lieut. McArthur, at the same time drawing his revol ver and dropping on his knee. Two Phots rang out in the darkness, and the Cerman officer fell, mortally wounded; with the remaining three rounds an equal number of the offi- cer's companions were accounted for. A corporal with the party then came up from behind, and Meut. McArthur. telling the corporal to rest his rifle on his (tlie Lieutenant's) shoulder, the fifth man was disposed of. While the German officer was lying on the ground he called for the "brave British officer" to come to liim. Sus- pecting treachery, however, the offi- cer not having been disarmed. Lieut. McArthur deemed It advisable not to comply Willi the request, and proceed- ed with liis duties. As the ('all for the Uritisli officer was repeated, the corporal eventually went to ascertain what the (lerman officer wanted. On reaching him llio C.erman took an Iron cross off his breast, and handed it to the corporal with tbe request that it should be given to his officer. Llout. McArthur tlien made his way cautiously ahead, and to his surprise came upon a trench full of Germans! Maintaining his presence of mind, liDwever, he turned to his handful of men, v.hicli now numbered six, and flioutod, "Come o:i. my lads, give tlieni a volley I" Tlie click of tlie ri- fles proved sufficient for the Huns, who shouted. "No slioot, no shoot, camarade." and threw up their hands In token of surrender. With an empty revolver In one hand and a cane in the other, the l;rave young officer advanced to the edge (if the trench and made signs lo the Germans to get out of it, which tliey gladly didâ€" 4,'i of them, all fully armed! Tlie remainder of Lieut. Mc- .\rtliur's little party now came up. and the Germans were disarmed, made prisoners and marched to the British trenches. Dawn now commencing to break, the advance of the little party with their prisoners became extremely dan- gerous, and on one occasion they had a narrow escape of being shot down liy the men in the British trenches, being mistaken for an attacking party of tfte enemy. However, this danger was ultimately averted and tl:o party arrivivl safely at the British trenches Willi their prisoners, and their appear- ance naturally caused no little sur- prise. Lieut. McArthur was connecied with the Passenger lleparlment of tlie Can- adian Pacific Ilailway In London, ICng.
