A little stream ran through the village and added its touch of beauty to the landscape.

We were only a mile and a half from Bailleul, so we could easily get up to the town either for a concert or for dinner at the hotel.

The Camp Commandant allotted me the school house, which I fitted up as a chapel.

It was very small, and not particularly clean, but it served its purpose very well.
My only objection to St.Jans Cappel was that it was situated such a long way from our men, for we still held the same front line near Ploegsteert.

It was now a ride of twelve miles to Hill 63 whither I frequently had to go to take burial services, the round trip making a journey of nearly twenty-four miles.
