    The Paris pictures are all of the same group of wounded soldiers.
  • Art Siegel said:
    An account of wounded soldiers in the streets of Paris, published in The New Age, September 24, 1914, by Beatrice Hastings, writing as Alice Morning: "as I stood reading under a lamp, I heard sounds, and the crowd ran, and there came slowly across the boulevard a band of wounded soldiers, French, Belgians, and Senegalese,quite a hundred. And the poor things were all smiling, one or two of the blacks beaming. Some of them shook hands with us, and we all fished out cigarettes and what-ever we had. They seemed mostly hit in the left arm,but a few were bandaged round the head also. I cannot well describe the mingled feelings of the crowd, joy to see them and sorrow to see them like that, expressed in low murmurs. They were going to the Gare Montparnasse, en route for some southern sanatorium." dl.lib.brown.edu/pdfs/1140814322466340.pdf, p. 501
