So he went back to the front line. He had not long

returned when the German Guns began to speak again. The

garrison of the hill was now desperately thin. Lt. Roupell

at once went down to Headquarters, through the storm of shell-

fire which swept the slopes, and returned once more at the

head of the reinforcements which were so urgently needed.

Badly wounded as he was, he remained with his company on 

Hill 60; until, on the morning of the 21st, the battalion

was relieved.
