Fritz made a counter attack, bombarding us very heavily for about twelve hours and using a quantity of tear shells. We were called upon to lend a hand and lost a few of our men; the Sgt-Major being killed. Altogether we had a pretty rough time while it lasted from about three o’clock in the afternoon until three o’clock the following morning.
