  Received a well earned rest but

  as usual it was impossible to get

  a decent wash which I must say

  is as much needed on a long march

  as Food but we managed with

  the usual Mud bath & all Fell

  asleep on the ground in the same

  mind that we would never last

  untill the end of our journey.

   

  Fri April 17 1915

   

  To day we commenced the third stage of

  our journey we again started away at 7-

  o-clock & again continued down the Mountain

  side the third day was something similar to

  the second day’s the same road cut in the

  mountain side. It is a great sight to see

  the great ravines & the Bridges which in the

  wet season must be really magnificent

  & as we are told the water pours down

  in great columns & to see the great

  rocky beds it is really wonderful how
