This is a delightful day. The sky is quite clear and most of us are having a good time. Seven men are on guard duty and three on outpost. Everything is quiet on the line. We have pork and beans for dinner and soup for supper. I took a long walk over in the walled city and along the bay. In the evening most of us attended services at the Opera House. For some reason we were all ordered to fill our belts and be ready in a minute’s notice. Many of us slept with our clothing on but we were not called out. There are fourteen men on the sick list and three at the general hospital of which two cases are smallpox. There are more than 1,500 men confined at the general hospital and about 800 at Cavite and 300 at Corregidor Island. The average of sick at the company quarters. Not more than 500 are not fit for duty. Frank Brain is reported to be in very bad condition.
