" Aug 6th 9.30 AM x We came out last night left quite late, pitch dark, arrived here around midnight, hot tea waiting for us, just woke up few minutes ago and had breakfast, shaved and have got dressed for inspection by some big bug. He will probably say 'Well Boys you are looking fine, and pass along and that will end the performance. one shell burst just before we came out and some of the pieces fell in the trench near some boys but not near me. the only one we had sent over us for the day quite a few bullets went by us on the way out but not near enough to amount to much. will start today cutting meat, bacon etc, and making tea for the boys. it is official now that Warsaw [?] has fallen, that will prolong the war just so much longer. Heard a rumour this morning that the 1st Division is going away back for a long rest and the 2nd Division is to take our place. They haven't been here at all, and we need the rest sure enough. only hope this is true.
