CHUNUK BAIR.—In this lonely place of tragedy. Nature broods, as, indeed, it should. From the mountain top, drenched with the blood of their comrades, New Zealanders gazed down at the Narrows, and thought their dream of winning the Dardanelles was to be realised. But sacrifices were in vain, British reinjorcements being pushed back from the crest There are only eight "known" New Zealand graves in the cemetery, but the "missing" memorial records the names of 852 New Zealanders whose graves or bodies could not be identified. An amazing disparity, but In those August days, when what was the deciding battle of the campaign raged, British, Australians, New Zealanders, Gurkas and Turks fell like leaves in autumn, and their bodies lay at the mercy of the elements for many months.
