Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III MISFORTUNE fighting going on ahead, Hal. I hear it, replied Hal briefly. Guess we had better bear off to the south a bit. We've no business getting mixed up in it. We've other work to do. Chester nodded his assent, and1 the two boys wheeled their horses a trifle to the south, enough, they believed, to give the struggling forces ahead a wide berth. They had long since passed the most advanced British lines, and both realized that the sounds of battle that came from the east probably meant that a British reconnoitering party had come in contact with a force of the enemy bent on the same mission. As they rode forward the sounds of battle gradually became more and more indistinct; then ceased altogether. At intervals there could still be heard the booming of the great guns, British as well as German, and the opposing armies continued to shell the other's lines; but after a time these, too, ceased, which, in itself, was little short of remarkable. Until now there had not been a cessation of artillery fire for days. As Hal and Chester continued on their way, darkness suddenly descended over the battlefield. That's better, said Chester. Thank goodness it will be a dark night. We'll be able to get closer than if there were a moon. You're right on that point, Hal agreed; but if we are seen prowling about near the German lines In the darkness, we'll probably draw a bullet or two. We'll have to chance that, and trust to luck.

"One!" The speaker was Jack Templeton, an English youth and first officer of the British submarine D-16, Lord Hastings, commander. Frank Chadwick, an American lad about the same age as Jack, the second officer of the under-sea fighter, laid his hand upon his friend's arm. "Let me take a look," he said. Jack relinquished to his chum his place at the periscope, and the latter peered into the instrument long and earnestly. Into the periscope-which protruded slightly above the surface of the water while the submarine was still submerged-came the vision of a sinking warship, and the sight, enlarged by powerful binoculars, was apparent to Frank's eyes. "She's done for, all right," he said quietly, turning away at length. "Pretty good shooting, I should say."
