obliterated.  Our Artillery retaliated and eventually succeeded in silencing enemy T.M.'s.

A patrol under 2 Lt L. A. WALTON left our trenches on the left of HART'S CRATER with  the object of examining MODEL MOUND.  2 Lt Walton reported  that the enemy were not holding MODEL MOUND but that they were hard at work on the front line trenches opposite.  On his return a few well directed rifle grenades put an end to this activity.

A small patrol of 2 men left our trenches between HARTS & HARRISONS craters and soon met an enemy patrol of about 14 men.  Our patrol got back unobserved and L - Gunners opened fire on the enemy with, it is believed, good results.

Casualties:- Killed O.R 1  Wounded O.R 9  (5 shell shock)

LOOS    5/9/16   
A patrol under  2 Lt L. G. Walton went out at midnight to the right of HARTS CRATER for the purpose of reconnoitring GREEN MOUND and a small mound to the right of the same.  2 Lt Walton reported both mounds unoccupied and no enemy saps leading to them.  The patrol  then worked up to the enemy wire, found it very strong and no gaps. Front line appeared to be very lightly held.

   Casualties :-  Wounded O.R 5.
