The same guns compelled the Naval Brigade to shift their position last night.

We have not much to teach the Boer gunners, except the superiority of our shells.
The bombardment then became general; only three Gordons were wounded, but the town suffered a good deal.

Three of "Long Tom's" shells pitched in the main street, one close in front of a little girl, who escaped unhurt.

Another carried away the heavy stone porch of the Anglican Church, and, at dinner-time, "Silent Susan" made a mark on the hotel, but it was empty.

Just before midnight the guns began again.
