El Hassaniya
By all accounts we are to clear out to morrow morning at 5 o'clock We have received no orders Yet but it seems a cert. One thing it wont take long to pack up, though how Im going to get every thing on the saddle I dont know, the horse will have a rare load. The blighter got his heel gauled with the rope on Tuesday & is very sore on it. I drew 3 quid this morning. I wonder if we will get in near Cairo as a few seem to think or stay at Hill 70, the latter is not much chop.
