Sick sent away increasing daily - Serg. Hannah, Len Dewar today.
Have
splendid possie here with cooking, dug-out shelves etc., up to dick.
Battleships bombarding up at Anafarta Bay this evening.
Big attack on "Burnt Hill: (Hill 70) which was captured but lost in night.
L.H.
(red and white) went to relieve 2 Batn in trenches captured from Turks
on Lone Pine Ridge. The Turks know how to dig trenches and also how to
build them. Some parts of the captured ones are model of safety and
comfort, fine bomb-proof shelter and excellent sniper look outs. Many
dead are still unburied up the gully. Some saps are full of bodies and
are simply filled in - nothing else can be done with them. The Doctor is
now showing consideration to the ones who have stuck to their jobs here
right from the start, and he is sending many of them away for a spell.
Dismounted
English Yeomanry joined in attack on Burnt Hill advance across Salt
Lake, Inscription on Turkish Shells- Death to my enemies.
