Yalo, the ancient Ajalon, a city of the tribe of Dan, was our camp till 24th February. Brigade H.Q. were at the head of the next wadi to us, and below them the Devons and Somersets, while we occupied the other side of the ridge with the 229th Field Ambulance beyond us. The Ayrs and Lanarks were in a separate camp at Amwas.
The Scots Guards were the winners of the Bull Dog Cup at the Crystal Palace, and had only once been beaten, and to defeat them 2-0 was a great achievement. We were all very depressed at the departure of the Ayrs and Lanarks.
His remedy for poverty was to set up a number of communities, which should maintain themselves by cultivating the soil with the spade, and in which every man should labour for all. Thus New Lanarks were to be spread over the country, with the difference that the employer was to be omitted. Owen, in short, became properly a Socialist, having been simply a paternal philanthropist.
Capt. His charger. Lieut. Pte. Henderson, B Squadron. Lieut. Lieut. Lieut. Pronounced "genu-eine." Lieut. A.S. Lindsay, M.B.E., M.C. Amurieh, an isolated hill held by the Turks, raided by the Ayrs and Lanarks, 22nd March 1917. During the troublous times in France at the end of the eighteenth century the fear of invasion was as acute as it was during the first years of the European War.
The first attack was to be led by the Ayr and Lanarks on the right, who were to scale the salient spur running up to their objective Kh. Mahmeh, and by the Somersets on the left, who were to advance up the spur which led in a N.E. direction to Sh. Abu-el-Zeitun, which was their objective. We, in close support, and the Devons in reserve, were to follow the left battalion.
This made us right leading battalion objective Beitania with the Ayrs and Lanarks in close support. The left leading battalion the Somersets were to make for Hill 500 about three-quarters of a mile north of Beitania. The Devons were to advance in close support of the Somersets, and we were given the K.S.L.I. from the 231st Brigade to remain in reserve on Shafa, where Brigade H.Q. also remained.
