Visited H.M.M. [H.M.S.] Sir Thomas Picton and looked at the damage done by the 8.2 Gun Fire, she has had a good knocking about, but at the same time she has given more than she received and the Admiral gave her great praise for her splendid work, she had a good few wounded but nobody killed. She is now refitting and is expected to go back around the Adriatic to give a little bit more to the Turk's.

17th.
Divisions, Prayers, Refitting. P.M. S.S. "Trowbridge" a ship that had been Torpedoed about 95 Miles out arrived and the Hole in her side was about 25 Square feet, she was a turret built ship and saved her a great deal and also saved her from sinking. Visited Submarine E.2, this is the first Submarine that I have seen the internal parts of and she quite supprised me as they are one mass of machinary and very little spare space.
