| Description | Telling the General that he had found out from the Adjutant General's office that it had been decided from 25th June to increase the establishment of the 1st Battalion of the 78th to 1,200 men and to reduce that of the 2nd to 400. He felt that there would be little point in objecting at the present moment as the decision had been taken. [Marked 'E29' in red.] |
