Letter to Ruth Mallory written from France during the Battle of the Somme, 'Sept 6 1916'
Unpleasant afternoon spend at an inquiry into which battery had been firing into their own trenches. Describes why it was all so hateful.
Had enjoyed working on the ante-room. Had gone into Albert to get a stove to warm them but had been unsuccessful. Had enjoyed a chat with the old woman in the ironmongery and come away with another oil lamp.
Had received the good news of the capture of the Combles by the French.
Comments on her letter and the childish activities that can be enjoyed by the seaside. Asks if the seaside made any difference to Clare.
Was lying on his bed in pyjamas. All their dug-outs had been christened for the convenience of the guards. His was called ‘Fathom Five’. Was off to sleep as breakfast was at 7.30am and he had very poor sleep in a chair the night before.
