Going up to the Manchesters' position on the top of Caesar's Camp, I had a view of the whole country almost as good as any balloon's.

The Boer laagers have increased in size, and are not so carefully hidden.
Beside the railway at the foot of "Long Tom's" hill near Modder Spruit, there was quite a large camp of Boer tents and three trains as usual.
They say the Boers have put their prisoners from the Royal Irish Fusiliers here, but it is unlikely they should bring them back from Pretoria.

The tents of another large camp showed among the bushes on Lombard's Nek, where the Helpmakaar road passes between Lombard's Kop and Bulwan, and many waggon laagers were in sight beyond.

At the foot of the flat-topped Middle Hill on the south-west, the Boers have placed two more guns to trouble the Manchesters further.

But our defences along the whole ridge are now very strong.
In the afternoon they buried Dr.Stark in the cemetery between the river and the Helpmakaar road.
