to me very nicely a couple of days ago and so I mentioned Cecils transfer. His own people will not send his transfer through – I suppose they are very satisfied with him, and wish to keep him. The General was very sympathetic and promised to speak to Brigadier 2nd Bde. He said that he would not allow him to be in the same Bn. as myself – I told the Brig. that I should like him transfered to 6th Light Trench Mortar Battery, because the Trench Mortar Officers are very anxious to have him – He promised to fix it up.

I am sending you, under separate cover, an aeroplane photo of that part of the line referred to in that Complimentary Order you have of me dated 29/30 June.

Study it carefully – if possible get a magnifying glass – You will be quite interested –
