HEATH (_Lieut.-Colonel_), _30th July, 1900._ _C.S.O., Lines of Communication._ CHAPTER VIII Still holding Grass Kop with the Queen's -- General Buller leaves for England -- Final withdrawal of the Naval Brigade, and our arrival at Durban -- Our reception there -- I sail for England -- Conclusion. _Tuesday, 2nd October._--Grass Kop. Still here with the Queen's and my friends Major Dawson and Lieutenant Poynder. What an odd sort of climate we seem to have in South Africa. Two days ago unbearable heat with rain and thunder, and to-day so cold, with a heavy Scotch mist, as to make one think of the North Pole; so we are shivering in wraps and balaclavas, while occasional N.W. gales lower some of our tents. The partridges seem to have forsaken this hill, so poor "John" the pointer doesn't get enough work to please him; but his master, Major Dawson, when able to prowl about safe from Boer snipers, still downs many a pigeon and guinea fowl which keeps our table going.
