From. G.W.H.

I am sending all the men back on Thursday afternoon for the holidays. The Paris Depot has let me down with 22.G.V. It will not be ready until Friday morning. I shall try the axle before leaving myself.

I shall leave 32 EX. in Paris and was hoping Sr would have it, but I hear that he is contemplating going to Derby. I will report on Wednesday morning, as I am hoping to spend the week-end in the south.
