15th November 1915

A remarkable event occurred at 8.30 am.  Four horses with the ration wagon stampeded, tearing through the officer's lines, circling between and round the tents, clearing the tents by inches only, clearing two sets of sleepers,  then straight for the barbed wire fence.  This was torn clear of the posts for about 100 yards then over a newly ploughed field where they stopped.
Severely cold with ice, snow and sleet.
