British rrny Headquarters in France, Sunday, March 24
The main thrust on the Britiih right flank by the Germans
Thursday morning was south of St. Quentin and the enemy
used a division for every 2,000 yards of the front, there being
approximately 'one German division against every British bat
talion.
z The purpose of the attack here was to capture Urvillers,
and Essigny-Le-Grand and thereby acquire high ground for a
further advance, 1
v It is now possible to give more details of the early stages
of this and other fights.
CROSS OISE RIVER. '
, Orf the extreme right of the British
army the enemy crossed the - River
Oise at two places. One body of
troops came out of LaFere and swung
north, while another army crossed at
Moy and turned south to form a junc

out the day the battle raged in the
lowlands-about the Oise. '
At Vendeuil, a group of British
held out until 4 o'clock Friday after
noon. A little further, north the Ger
mans stormed Urvillers and Essigny.
Just west of St. Quentin in the Brit
ish were forced to fall back, but
throughout the day they clung to the
Holnon wood, a little northwest of the
city.'

strong British redoubts made a gal

fore thev last of them, with their ma -
chine gunners, had been reduded. The
end of the first clay found the British
behind-the St. Quentin canal.
Friday morning the enemy renewed
his assault with increasing vigor, and,
after desperate fighting in the region
of LaFere, succeeded in getting
across to the British side.
Further north the British also w;tht
drew from Holnon wood. The (itr-
