Fine weather, very few wounded but more sick. A Fritz brought one of our balloons down towards evening. He dived out of some clouds and the two observers jumped out with their parachutes, but one, through some accident failed to open and he fell like a stone. The enemy shelled the batteries rather heavily in our neighbourhood also Franvillers, 300 yards up the road, and another village a bit further away. So far he has not shelled our station, but we hear them passing overhead quite a lot.
