Gallipoli Diary

Wednesday Jan 27th

Wednesday Jan 27th

Moved at 9 am into Trenches
on West bank of canal. Otago
batt'n remaining in reserve.
Indian cavalry patrol this
morning captured one of page 68 enemy's scouts. Canal is held here
by Gurkhas on our right and
Baluchis on our left with a
battery of English Terr. Artillery
in our line. I went out and
found enemy had been 2 to 300
strong & under cover of dark
had from cover in sand been
firing at 850 yards. They
discreetly retired before daybreak.
