HIDE DEAD FROM WOUNDED.
Reading edition
A correspondent of the Nieuwe Rooterdamsche Courant tells an amazing story of how the German dead are disposed of at Quatricht, a little village in the neighborhood of Ghent. Every day people see huge pits dug, and every night they hear the rumble of wagons, but they must not even peep from their houses.
Each morning, however, shows fresh mounds of earth, and the people have come to the conclusion that bodies must be brought to the place of burial in tip wagons.
The wounded are transported during the day so that they may not see the procession of the dead.
