Letter to Ruth Mallory written from France during the Battle of the Somme
Acknowledges receipt of pears and apples and approves of the cake box which they reused to pack cups for the move. Thanks her for the prunes but says he can buy them in Corbie [struck through]. Was pleased with the potpourri and will give some to Earl whose battery is close by.
Started his new dugout but didn’t have time to cover it. Thought they were to have fine weather but it started raining in the night and he had slept in the Mess room [includes a plan]. Rain had washed mud down the stairs and it was disgusting. They were be able to settle in if they have some dry days.
Discusses German food shortages and whether Romania can hold on.
Bell had been awarded the Military Cross.
20 Oct - a very bright day and cold east wind with a perceptible frost.
