Extracts from this letter
"We are not being treated to [sic] badly... We get Bacon every day & twice we have had eggs. Bully beef, dried vegetables, rice, raisins, tea, sugar, tinned milk, jam, very hard biscuits, and sometimes a bit of bread, are all on issue..."
"Our water is the worst job, we are on top of a hill and we have to carry all our water up from about half a mile away."
