Monday Dec. 4th
Some of our men went into the Trenches today. It has been raining slightly today. Went to the Baths this afternoon & had a hot bath. It was very refreshing. An old Brewery has been utilized. The Vats are filled with water & then steam is used to heat it up. The men go in leave their old underclothes & get a set of clean underclothes after their bath. After six days in the trenches you can imagine how this is appreciated.

I went out to the Trenches today visited D & B Coy. & went into the Front trenches for the first time & had a peep at the German trenches through a periscope. It was quiet on the front yesterday today. Tonight there were 2 gas alarms but it didn't reach the town.
