23 | Many Officers took part in a Boar Hunt, in the FORET DE LYONS, using rifles. Major Morton bagged a hare and the honour of killing a very fine 16 point Stag was claimed by at least 3 officers. The Band of the Life Guards gave a concert to the Bn during the afternoon. In the evening a Smoking Concert was held for the Sgts in a large barn, the Life Guards Band again played and with a fair quantity of beer obtained by Capt R.F. Norman it all seemed like “old times”. |
