Friday 18 May 1917

Posted notes yesterday – am afraid my easy writing is cussed hard reading but I try & put in a few lines to show you I never forget you all at home & to let you know "All's Well. See Copy.

[The remainder of the page crossed through.] On Reconnaissance had 1 horse shot. Turkswatch us, we watch Turks. Every afternoon about noon the wind rises & clouds of dust blown from the North nearly as bad as a Riverina Dust storm. Shifted Camp last night back across the WADI. Our turn for the Trench having finished for a time.

Will let Joe know if I am into CHANTER.
