fire, the war Office announced.
The official communique also re.
ported activity for the first time in

During the course of the night we
completely repulsed by our curtains OF
artillery fire and by our rife fire three
new attacks of the enemy against the
Bois-en-H ache, to the northeast OF
Souchez.
ITO the south of the Somme an al
most continuous conflict is being car.
ried on with engines of trench warfare
in the sector of Lihons, while batteries
are directing an effective fire against
the German works.
ITO the north of Verdun the Ger
mans attempted to occupy the cavities
made by mines recently exploded be.
tween the lines. They were every
where repulsed. During the night
there was very sharp infantry fire
from trench to trench in the environs
Of Nomeny. Our artillery in the same
region dispersed enemy working par
ties to the east of Eply, near Gremecy,
and Biencourt, and bombarded the sta
