Published in The sphere, loc. cit., with the following description: "Deep down in the recesses of the fort is the poste de secours. The vaulted gallery is lit with electric-light, for the dynamos are still running. As the men come in they are helped to a seat on a box or a pile of coats. Those that can stand are stripped and their wounds promptly dressed. Another, with a severe head wound, takes his seat at the operating table, and is skillfully attended by the doctor in charge"
