The Diary of Dorothy Priest, November 2nd 1914

7,000 Germans have been captured in a week.

The Turks are making trouble in Egypt with the Bedouins.  The allies are within an hour’s walk of Calais (3 and a half miles).  The Emden is still at large, but it is not as bad as it might have been for her Captain is a gentleman.  We saw a Belgian soldier in Llandudno today, he had evidently been wounded in the feet or legs.  We are still putting Germany through the mangle!
