all sorts and conditions | 8 |
couple of hundred yards | 8 |
the army service corps | 8 |
life in the trenches | 8 |
got the order to | 8 |
to make a dash | 8 |
which might have been | 8 |
behind the firing line | 8 |
the quality of the | 8 |
the number of men | 8 |
i did not feel | 8 |
the truth is that | 8 |
he was shot through | 8 |
i am not going | 8 |
the hill on the | 8 |
as long as he | 8 |
that it must be | 8 |
of the peninsular war | 8 |
on the first day | 8 |
it was at the | 8 |
one company of the | 8 |
hundred yards from the | 8 |
each of the four | 8 |
as many of the | 8 |
to fight their way | 8 |
with you till we | 8 |
as we have seen | 8 |
in front of his | 8 |
but it was impossible | 8 |
the dead and dying | 8 |
was no time for | 8 |
and by and by | 8 |
in the retreat from | 8 |
was given to the | 8 |
a dozen of the | 8 |
saw that it was | 8 |
extract from a letter | 8 |
the bay of biscay | 8 |
of the irish regiments | 8 |
that the british army | 8 |
the light companies of | 8 |
and i knew that | 8 |
i tell you that | 8 |
the rd light dragoons | 8 |
the best of the | 8 |
was taken up by | 8 |
it struck me that | 8 |
under the impression that | 8 |
with some of the | 8 |
felt that it was | 8 |
a great part of | 8 |
the only way to | 8 |
up to the end | 8 |
as if i was | 8 |
course of the day | 8 |
of the great fight | 8 |
of the guns and | 8 |
i should have been | 8 |
we were on the | 8 |
along the whole line | 8 |
the support and reserve | 8 |
a few days later | 8 |
th and th regiments | 8 |
occupied by the enemy | 8 |
officers and men killed | 8 |
part of the world | 8 |
he would have been | 8 |
on the left bank | 8 |
there are plenty of | 8 |
to take charge of | 8 |
and this was the | 8 |
a long time before | 8 |
that we did not | 8 |
the enemy were driven | 8 |
seem to have been | 8 |
and then turned to | 8 |
great part of the | 8 |
company of the regiment | 8 |
the fury of the | 8 |
that i was a | 8 |
we stood to our | 8 |
or at any rate | 8 |
frederick the great and | 8 |
on the extreme right | 8 |
the roof of the | 8 |
he had to be | 8 |
way in which they | 8 |
in the early part | 8 |
a time when the | 8 |
information as to the | 8 |
be with you till | 8 |
he was obliged to | 8 |
on the floor of | 8 |
in a few days | 8 |
the lines of torres | 8 |
it seemed to him | 8 |
masses of the enemy | 8 |
that he had never | 8 |
he got up and | 8 |
as a sort of | 8 |
to such an extent | 8 |
in which we had | 8 |
the bodies of the | 8 |
he goes on to | 8 |
about a mile and | 8 |
to the spot where | 8 |
of the irish at | 8 |
under a very heavy | 8 |
the failure of the | 8 |
and those of the | 8 |
the length of the | 8 |
fight of the independent | 8 |
a man with a | 8 |
for the supply of | 8 |
and took part in | 8 |
at the conclusion of | 8 |
the war is over | 8 |
and every now and | 8 |
a look at the | 8 |
they were unable to | 8 |
came to the conclusion | 8 |
in a way which | 8 |
i do not believe | 8 |
but i dare say | 8 |
to the value of | 8 |
under the shadow of | 8 |
were within a few | 8 |
a man who was | 8 |
i went to the | 8 |
of the enemy had | 8 |
is going to be | 8 |
to find that the | 8 |
that the boers had | 8 |
up my mind to | 8 |
one of the finest | 8 |
from loss of blood | 8 |
in case of a | 8 |
on the road to | 8 |
at the hands of | 8 |
between them and the | 8 |
but it is not | 8 |
from the firing line | 8 |
to the fighting line | 8 |
that the boers were | 8 |
of a mile away | 8 |
as i can see | 8 |
that the germans were | 8 |
the action of the | 8 |
in the same manner | 8 |
for a couple of | 8 |
the summit of a | 8 |
and at length the | 8 |
in the vicinity of | 8 |
the war in the | 8 |
the british army had | 8 |
i think it was | 8 |
the british and french | 8 |
the camp of the | 8 |
of the same regiment | 8 |
in view of the | 8 |
the object of the | 8 |
to show that the | 8 |
but as it was | 8 |
of men of the | 8 |
of the london irish | 8 |
it was thought that | 8 |
when it comes to | 8 |
and took possession of | 8 |
i saw that the | 8 |
to the north of | 8 |
i should not have | 8 |
and he could not | 8 |
he had had a | 8 |
there is no other | 8 |
the ground in front | 8 |

she was going to | 8 |
branch of the service | 8 |
a few hundred yards | 8 |
right and left of | 8 |
may be able to | 8 |
which the enemy had | 8 |
if we are to | 8 |
men killed and wounded | 8 |
on the occasion of | 8 |
seemed as if the | 8 |
i think i can | 8 |
man who had been | 8 |
to be out of | 8 |
as the eye could | 8 |
or two of the | 8 |
a good view of | 8 |
it was only by | 8 |
force of the enemy | 8 |
the son of god | 8 |
he was not in | 8 |
for a moment to | 8 |
of the man who | 8 |
the bullets of the | 8 |

the people of the | 8 |
and for a few | 8 |
and a half miles | 8 |
the big gun on | 8 |
that it was no | 8 |
the regiment was ordered | 8 |
to tell the truth | 8 |
to do the work | 8 |
it was supposed that | 8 |
darkness of the night | 8 |
to the left and | 8 |

the end of this | 8 |
the place where the | 8 |
they were ordered to | 8 |
there had been a | 8 |
the life of a | 8 |
put up at the | 8 |
where i had been | 8 |
way in which he | 8 |

most of the men | 8 |
on the german trenches | 8 |
to tell me that | 8 |

who seemed to be | 8 |

began to talk about | 8 |
some of the most | 8 |
to one of our | 8 |

an end to the | 8 |
would be able to | 8 |
the latter part of | 8 |
to enable them to | 8 |
that we should have | 8 |
under the shelter of | 8 |
so that i could | 8 |
troops in the world | 8 |
the courage of the | 8 |
but i think i | 8 |
the peace of the | 8 |
the bravery of the | 8 |
in half an hour | 8 |
at the siege of | 8 |
of the dublins and | 8 |
appear to have been | 8 |
at the call of | 8 |

at the request of | 8 |

going to the front | 8 |
for some time in | 8 |
early stages of the | 8 |
you will have to | 8 |

of the irish race | 8 |

the fact that they | 8 |
did not know what | 8 |
between three and four | 8 |
up to the present | 8 |
in the great war | 8 |
in the darkness of | 8 |

it was found impossible | 7 |
i think it is | 7 |
they were to be | 7 |
carried out by the | 7 |
companies of the nd | 7 |
i was ready to | 7 |
it was not so | 7 |
that most of the | 7 |
of the way in | 7 |
two of our men | 7 |
every one of them | 7 |
published in the times | 7 |
but after a time | 7 |
men were killed and | 7 |
the official record of | 7 |
with the help of | 7 |
what is going on | 7 |
would have been impossible | 7 |
of one or two | 7 |
the help of the | 7 |
to remain in the | 7 |
fire of the french | 7 |
slope of the hill | 7 |
if i had been | 7 |

from the time of | 7 |
two or three miles | 7 |
wounded in the head | 7 |
the lines of communication | 7 |
in the direction from | 7 |
the excitement of the | 7 |

there was a curious | 7 |
of shot and shell | 7 |

i could not speak | 7 |
or other of the | 7 |
with the british army | 7 |
of which there was | 7 |
years before the war | 7 |
good view of the | 7 |
that there would be | 7 |
in a series of | 7 |
