Fine, but misty. I was orderly officer for the day. We had a parade of all N.C.Os  ect in the afternoon to say goodbye to Colonel Mackartney D.S.O. who is leaving us & going to Corps H.Q. The officers of the brigade gave him a send off dinner in Bailleul at night & we had a merry evening. We are all sorry to loose him; as he was looked to as a friend as well as a C.O. [Commanding Officer] by the whole brigade.
