Captain/Major Harold Ward Correspondence, item 6

  My Own Darling Wife,

    While resting here I suppose one
  

  accumulates a certain reserve of energy and

  there is no worry from the enemy. But for

  these factors I think that the term "resting"

  must have been invented by a humorous

  staff officer. For war I suppose this is really

  comfortable and it is certainly better than

  I expected at one time. We have had no 

  rain since we came & so the land is

  drying nicely. The mud is only really

  thick where it gets well stirred. The

  men are really splendid and appear to

  be quite happy & enjoying life. Our

  share of the hut (Hall, Stafford, & I) is a small

  room about 10 ft. square. We have three

  beds, long boxes 7' x 2'6" raised from the

  ground on legs about 12" long. The floor

  is "mother earth" & there is a wee table

  in the middle of the room. The door is 

  covered with a sheet of sacking & with 

  3 men breathing & three candles burning the

  air is getting fairly warm. I expect that
