They signalled in passing, butI did not learn what and besides like the rest I was getting my letters ready. I guess they thought they would work an April fool joke on us Hat. ha! While we had the warm weather we got the fall length of the day. Reveille at 4 a. in. bath parade at 4.15a in till 4.45, drill from 5 a. m. till 6 (or our squadron and from 6 to 7 for the other while the other squadrons would be on stable duty. We had to take fatigue and stables in turn. Then breakfast at 7.30 and change of all fatiguesgtnd stables at 8 a. m. which is active at times. After passing these mountains there was nothing ot any account till we came to cross the equator er "the line" \lequ phey prepared for meeting Father Neptune. A big bathing or ducking tab was got ready and any that happened to ass that way was apt to get i'fflild',dqi'i',', the rules and regulations of the eelebratcd sea-god. We crossed on the 3lst in very warm weather which being continued for several days caused great saffering amongst the horses following the rough usage they had from the rolling of the boat dnringthp egrly part of the trip. The Royal Canadians who went with us to till gaps in the first contin- gent, had, I think the best of the trip as they had no horses to look after. They were put on for night sentries and some of them day fatigues bat on the whole they were let off pretty easy and had good time for getting up their drill. Tho weather, except the first few days has been tine, we have had a very pleasant voyage taking it all through.
