“On Tuesday October 15th Little arrived down from the Right Front in great form. He brought some more wounded with him. The young school-mistress paid me a visit at the hospital. She has been on holiday in Archangel, and wanted to know when school would re-open. I told her – when the war was over. She wanted a job in the hospital, but I told her very politely that there was nothing doing. I told her, however, that she might come in in the afternoon, and try to cheer up the Russian patients, who seemed to be a dismal lot of fellows.”
