There won't be much chance of going to sleep.

We all dined in the town, for of course the mess plate and kit have been packed up.

We are not taking much with us now, just enough to make shift with.

The rest will be sent round to Calcutta, to be stored there till we settle down.

The men had a dinner given to them by the town, and as they all got leave out till twelve o'clock, and the loading of the wagons began at two, there has been a row going on all night.
