  • 14 March 1915… intending to go to church but had supper at Maestrini's which made us too late. Had quite a surprise when I saw Mel Knowles come in. He is a Lieut. in the 23rd Battn. Took a stroll on the Leas + then home.
  • 16 March 1915… s aft. - Poor fellow. It is too bad that a fellow after coming all this way could not croak with his boots on. - Knowles was over after parade. - Pryme can't stand prosperity.
