Thursday, May 13, 1915, to Thursday, May 20, 1915

Most enjoyable week’s rest in camp at Locre. Did nothing of any importance and heard no guns and had no shells over. Felt all the better for it, but has gone all too quickly.

Friday, May 21, 1915

Moved to huts nearer firing line and once more in sound of guns. Rotten!

Saturday, May 22, 1915

Moved further up into dugouts and are now back in line once more.

Sunday, May 23, 1915

Quiet day, but hard at work all night. Germans attacked 2 A. M. Monday morning and used gas. Horrible stuff. On our way to dugouts had fifteen in front of me knocked out by a shell. Awful sight and very upsetting.
