Gallipoli Diary

Sunday Nov 8th

Sunday Nov 8th

Very warm again but
cooling showers fell for
a few minutes. Details
of naval action off Chile rather
depressing, but we can't hope
for success always. On
information received, probably
from Cocos Is. the “Minotaur” left us this morning in
a westerly direction. In
evening we received wireless
from
Cocos Island that foreign
ship was in the vicinity.

We passed East of Cocos
about 40 miles instead of
usual westerly course.

Ships run 237 miles.
