The Creighton Chronicle . haystacks kindled by the Serbs. The road wherethe troops had been passing for days now lay bare of life to thehorizon. We could see it dotted with carcasses of oxen and brok-en down ammunition wagons. Twenty or thirty of the formerwere visible and several ammunition wagons lay forlornly infront of the hospital. Unfired shrapnel shells lay scattered alongthe road and here and there cartridges lay sprinkled about wherethe boxes had overturned and broken open. The hospital peoplereceived us vociferously.
