OF the days passed very YEARLY. At the
beginning We had been allowed to send
some letters. but this privilege was
stopped. Our barracks lay between two

French and the other by English soldiers
The English were drawn from many regi-
ments, the largest number from the
Cheshire regiment.

The latter carefully divides his rations

Many OF the English soldiers were so i'm
provldent that they sold TO the French
men their puttees. their haversacks, and
their great coats, absolutely forgetting
how they would suffer In the winter.
Many soldiers sold their great coats for
the equivalent of 3 shllings to 4 shil-

would pay a shilling for a small piece
OF bread.
