Abbott, Paul.1 Born in Holton, Kansas, enlisted on September 22, 1917 at Minneapolis, Minnesota; served in France as a private in Company D, 61st Infantry, wounded in right leg. Box 1.10 “August 8, 1918. Dear Mother and kids: I received your letters of July 7 yesterday. It took them just a month to get here. … We have just returned from the trenches to our rest camp, which is about three miles from the trenches. We were about 300 feet from the German trenches, but the only Germans I have seen yet, were some prisoners further inland. The trenches are about a foot above my head at most places, having lookout posts and dugouts at various points. I have been put in an automatic squad. This squad consists of two automatic rifle teams, and the corporal. Each team has one automatic rifleman and two carriers. I am first carrier.” The Holton Recorder, September 19, 1918. “Another Holton boy, who is still in the hospital is Paul Abbott, son of Mrs. Euterpe Abbott. He is in the hospital at Camp Dodge, not far from where Arthur Bailey is at Fort Des Moines. Paul is also suffering from a leg wound and has undergone several operations. An attempt was made to take some muscles from his thigh to replace the injured tendons in his leg. While the operation was not entirely a success, other efforts will be made in an endeavor to restore the wounded leg to complete usefulness. At present it is necessary for Paul to wear a brace, but in time he will be able to dispense with this. He too was wounded during the Argonne fight and has paid this long toil of suffering.” The Holton Recorder, August 7, 1919.

It was quite a walk and we were all tired when we got there. We rested on the hill above the trenches waiting for time to go in. I and a friend of mine slipped down to a dug-out occupied by some signal corps boys. They treated us good. They gave us some meat, bread and some good hot coffee. We appreciated that because it was cold and we had no jackets on. We went down into the trenches to our positions. We had a couple of hours to wait. Our artillery opened fire with a barrage, and it was some barrage. Imagine scores of big guns firing all at once. So far, I hadn’t been the least bit afraid, and was just complementing myself when I looked down and saw my knees knocking together. That should draw a laugh, but it’s straight. I said to myself, ’that wont’ do,’ so I rolled a big Bull Durham cigarette, and then I felt O. K. Only for about five minutes was I the least bit scared, and that was when our barrage started. Our big guns fired for several minutes and then the Lieutenant said, ‘It’s time to go boys, and we went, there wasn’t a dissenting voice, all were ready. Our wires had been cut, so we had nothing to stop us. At our place one wire hadn’t been cut and we had to step on it, and jump over. I was just balanced on on it, when a big shell hit close by and knocked me about 10 feet. Having got through that, we were encountered with Boche machine gun fire. You know a fellow forgets everything when he goes over. Nothing worries him. Well , I watched those machine gun bullets pick the dust in front of my feet, fly over my head, burst against the wall, etc. But I wasn’t worried about it at all. We made a successful raid and our casualties were very light.“ The Soldier Clipper, October 9, 1918.

  • JOURNAL Number Six
    THE JAMES CAIRD SOCIETY JOURNAL Number Six Antarctic Exploration Sir Ernest Shackleton MARCH 2012 1 Shackleton and a friend (Oliver Locker Lampson) in Cromer, c.1910. Image courtesy of Cromer Museum. 2 The James Caird Society Journal – Number Six March 2012 The Centennial season has arrived. Having celebrated Shackleton’s British Antarctic (Nimrod) Expedition, courtesy of the ‘Matrix Shackleton Centenary Expedition’, in 2008/9, we now turn our attention to the events of 1910/12. This was a period when 3 very extraordinary and ambitious men (Amundsen, Scott and Mawson) headed south, to a mixture of acclaim and tragedy. A little later (in 2014) we will be celebrating Sir Ernest’s ‘crowning glory’ –the Centenary of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic (Endurance) Expedition 1914/17. Shackleton failed in his main objective (to be the first to cross from one side of Antarctica to the other). He even failed to commence his land journey from the Weddell Sea coast to Ross Island. However, the rescue of his entire team from the ice and extreme cold (made possible by the remarkable voyage of the James Caird and the first crossing of South Georgia’s interior) was a remarkable feat and is the reason why most of us revere our polar hero and choose to be members of this Society. For all the alleged shenanigans between Scott and Shackleton, it would be a travesty if ‘Number Six’ failed to honour Captain Scott’s remarkable achievements - in particular, the important geographical and scientific work carried out on the Discovery and Terra Nova expeditions (1901-3 and 1910-12 respectively).
