Extremely cold altho’ not unduly affected by it. All my mixtures are frozen hard and have to be warmed before I can use them. Anything left damp such as a towel is frozen stiff and an overcoat if wet will stand up on its own. Temp. 15 below freezing I believe. Went through and checked dispensary during the day and sent in a requisition for more stuff. Took over a small canvas possie from one of the chaps leaving, very nice, containing stretcher, fire place, locker, etc. etc., a perfect little home and standing out amongst the snow by itself looks very quaint. At night lit the fire, boiled some water and had a good wash before turning in, a luxury this weather.
