CHAPTER XVI
36/38

I found a few hollow-nosed bullets, too, expanding like the Dum-Dum.

The effect of such a bullet was seen on the hat of some poor fellow in the Light Horse.

There was a tiny hole on one side, but the further side was all rent to pieces.

I hear some "express" sporting bullets have also been taken to the Intelligence Office, but I have not seen them.

Beside one Boer was found one of the old Martini rifles taken from the 52nd at Majuba.
On the top of Caesar's Camp our dead were laid out for burial--Manchesters, Gordons, and Rifle Brigade together.
