Last night all the patients who were able to get about w/out assistance were installed in a large camp of bell tents (about 10 in a tent) which for men in all stages of mutilation is not good business.For breakfast we were treated to a boiled egg & piece of dry bread & a dixie mess tin of tea which we drank & had filled about 3 times (a mouthful each) stew for dinner & Bread & marmalade for teaSome talk of removing us to night but it looks too rough

The little bay is so full of shipping you could not get another fish into it.
