  talking to one of the Young Officers

  on the parade this morning, +

  he had a similar experience.

  His papers were somehow lost, +

  finally they permitted him to send

  in a second lot. We've got a big

  batch of Leeds Volunteers with us

  - something like 150 - for a week's

  training. You'd roar with laughing.

  They have to do practice in everything

  - mounting guard; bayonet fighting

  etc - + as some are in civilian

  clothes with stand up collars,

  bowler hats etc, the result is

  ludicrous in the extreme. Well,

  lassie, I'm getting an expectant

  feeling every day. ...The rest of the line is cut off
