Diary Entry - 12th September, 1916

Tuesday, a cloudy day, inclined to rain all day. On the previous night, at midnight, Suttie heard he could go on leave and that he must be at the RAHQ by seven, so he had to set out from here at five a.m. He seemed very excited about it, and I should think he would be, as it was a special leave and very few are granted. I hung about the guns all day.
