I was offered a job of CSM on Instructional Staff to teach the men in the Details as they come across, before being drafted into Regiments, but as there was no promotion attached to it I turned it down. Moreover, my papers are in for a Commission & I am expecting to hear something very shortly.
The Weather still continues to keep hot.
