  My dear Lassie,

           I am commencing this in a short

  respite at Friday lunch time. Well-

  great events since last I wrote you. First,

  we had our bayonet fighting inspection

  yesterday afternoon, + I understand the class

  was passed as a whole. I was one of the

  lucky ones who was not called out to do any

  detailing + drilling. Then today we have

  had our eventful first riding test, + owing

  to the backwardness of 3 or 4 men in our ride,

  the whole ride will be inspected by the 

  Commandant (Lord Petersham not the Commandant

  was there today) again on the 29th

  Instant, as to whether we are going into 

  "A" squadron or to be kept back but some 6
