Diary Entry - 18th July, 1918

Set out for Dorris OP at four fifteen a.m. and am somewhat fed up after walking the two miles to find I have come on the wrong day. A horse artillery merchant holds the fort so there is nothing for it but to walk back again. As I left Douchie on my right the Hun was dousing it with gas shell. After breakfast find a useful windlass for the mine which we left. Cruikers came up in the evening.
