for some details and recruits of the
commander-in chlef's body guard last
Ju.y. We were camped about two miles
west of the Standorton railway station.
the lieutenant in charge asked me one
morning as l was about to ride into
town for rations to call at the ordnance
stores and get a couple of ham sweep-
ing brushes in clean up the horse lines.
I made out a requisition. which he
signed l rode to the ordnance stores
and asked a sergeant if he could sup‘
ply me with the brushes. He looked
indignantly at my bit of paper. and
said: “That's no use to us; you must
get it signed by the major."
l discovered the major's whereabouts
and asked him to sign the requisition.
His disgust on looking at my bit of
paper was supremo.
He said: "i can't indorse such a
thing as this. You must make it out
on army form 7.000.02ix." or some-
thing to that effect.
I told him we were only details wait-
ing to join our regiment. which was

“This is all wrong. You have got here.

l scratched off my offending line, and
wrote as required.
“Oh. that will never do." said the
major. you must make out a fresh
requisition."
i did this and asked him if it was our

"Oh, it‘ll have to do. i suppose," he
said.
i rode back to camp again and got
this signed and returned once more.
The major was very disgusted. look-
ed at my paper. flicked it and ‘sald:
"This is very irregular.”
I said: "We are an irregular corps."
and was promptly told to shut up and
