Seaman Kirkham Intends to Go Bacx a to Farming. t In 1908 a Bernardo boy landed in ‘ ‘ Canada, a stranger in a strange land. He is now back in Toronto, a hero Whose name has been flashed by 1 cable all >ver the world, and the pic- ture of whose explOit formed the double-page feature of one of the ’great illustrated weekly magazines Of London which are circulated wherever the English people have spread. At nineteen years of age he has been recommended for the Dis- tinguished Conduct Medal. On April 20 last his Majesty’s ship “Broke,” in company with the “Swift,” encountered six German torpedo boats. They both made a dash at the enemy and the “Broke” succeeded in ramming one of them. Her bows entered into the side of the German ship, making a great gash in her plates, and while en- tangled in this position a boarding party of Huns leaped on to the “Broke’s” forward deck, The crew on the “Broke’s” forward gun I fought them off, and the former Bar- ‘ nardo boy was there. Leading Seaman Lawrence Kirk- ham is his name and ranking now. Tâ€"Tn carved his time on the farm of HERO OF BROKE’S BATTLE. VHUU 0 When the Germans swarmed down on the deck of the “Broke” the gun crew were alone to bear the shock of the attack. ‘ '1'” -.,-:.1 C‘An “Six others and myseu, said owâ€" man Kirkham, “fought them with re- volvers from behind the steel gun shield for twenty minutes, but as we could not drive them off we took our sidearms and went out after them. There was a pretty warm time for a while, then those who were not kill- ed jumped into the sea at the point of our side-arms. I myself went too near the railing and fell overboard. iI was in the sea for twenty-nine hours, when I was picked up by a fishing smack off Dover. I had two life-belts on, and was unconscious when I reached Dover, and after- tal. The wound in the hand I re- ceived when holding up my hand to signal that the gun he fired.” Kirkham was wounded in the hip as well :1 the hand, and has been discharged from the navy. He will go back to the farm, he says. first call in August, in”, is gamma to its hard-won early laurels, ac- cording to information trickling back from France. The battalion took an honorable part both in the capture of Vimy Ridge and subse- quently in the capitli'é: Of Fresnoy. At Vimy two battalions of the lst Brigade made the initial attack and the other two battalions advancing immediately after were given a set of objectives beyond those captured ,in the first advance. The 3rd Bat- talion was in the second pair. t is reported that it reached all its objee- ‘ tives and pushed half a mile beyond. For that day’s operations eighteen officers and men were named for honors, but a sad feature is that seven of the eighteen were a few days later killed at Fresnoy. A pleasing incidert in the battal- ion’s life occurred on June 13th, The battalion’s official mascot in the shape of a goat, which has been ‘with the unit for more than a year, ‘ is reported to be still alive and well.

For his gallan- try in that famous. battalion he was promoted and sent to a French Mili- tary College. After receiving his commission he joined the Franch army, and was one of the few, ' the only, native Canadian in the ranks of the army of the republic.
