Lance-Corporal Stoneman Assisting in Putting Out a Rick-Fire Amid a Storm of Machine-gun Bullets by B S Bagdatopulos (P)

On the night of October 18th 1914, the enemys shells set alight two ricks at Beaupuits, the flames showing clearly to the enemy the position of the British trenches. Under heavy cross-fire from machine-guns, Lance-Corporal W H Stoneman, of 1st Duke of Cornwalls Light Infantry, endeavoured to extinguish the flames, and for his great gallantry was awarded the DCM.
