Horse, they have all come from Australia, they are what we would call light Buggy or Sulky horses, of course they haven't much to carry as the average Indian I think runs from 9 stone to 10 stone. Some of the Boys went across to A. Stationary Hospital & got a lot of mail & papers, some of the Boys L.H.F.A. got a dozen letters, needless to add my luck was out. From these letters we learn that the Wondilla & Itonus were supposed to be sunk , 4 days out from W. Australia – Also that the papers contradicted it – Also of D. Bowmans decease. Went over to A.S.H. Camp & saw Sergt Gray, F. & N. Hill & other Boys of the 15th of the 1st. – Fred was busy cooking. A lot of Motor A.S.C. marched out our S.M. Turley also left with them, needless to add we were sorry to lose him. Made a fire about 9.15 pm & made some Tea. Green tea of course – it was jolly good - & made me think of Maud & Mrs. Single, who used to always give me green tea. The Flies nearly drive one mad.
