Tuesday 22nd
August 1916 From our Correspondent in the
Field
Early this
morning 14th (Light) Division captured part of Edge Trench. This trench runs,
as the name implies, along the eastern edge of Delville Wood. The Germans now
have just a toe-hold remaining in this wood.
On the Pozières Ridge, 48th (South Midland) Division
withstood German attacks on posts captured a short time before. This evening
the enemy are reported to be attacking again and, indeed, much noise is audible
from the north-west of my position in the rear areas around Montauban.
