27th Sept
A lovely day again – just mild. On the hills of the islands as the sun is setting there is a wonderful glow tinted with every shade reflecting on the white clouds that seem to be resting on the ridges. It has been quiet all day excepting a few fusilades from several Batteries on our left flank.
