It has rained all day and the weather is very sultry. There isn’t any change of the situation. We have seven men on guard and eleven men on outpost duty and our regular drills. I worked at headquarters until 4:00 p.m. The Amerikan renews her assault on the German firms stronger than ever which causes a good deal of excitement. The Consul General gives them a warning. Lieutenant Charles Howard is still confined to his room. Four men are on the sick list.
