I was relieved from
patrol this morning. Thus far we have not succeeded in locating any of the
reported spies. This patrol duty is quite hard, since when we have a few
moments for rest the only place is a vacant room over a store, without fire;
furthermore, lying down on the floor is not very inviting because of the
graybacks running over the floor.
