Transcription: poor old Bramwell, who was by my side, ducked, and got it in the head, I dived under the limber, to the 'phone, my chum Collins, and two more Gunners dragged Bramwell to the limber for what shelter it gave - the two gunners were hit, and Collins and I did what we could to poor Bramwell, but it was useless - the bullets simply hailed on the limber, and we expected to be hit every second, but it saved us, after the shower stopped, we removed poor Bramwell, it was an unpleasant sight to see a chums brains by ones side - a shell case was stuck in the ground 2 yards from where I lay - lucky it didn't splinter for Collins and I, everything seemed to bear marks of that lively hour escaping we two - we dug a hole that night, and many times while there the hole saved us, for when it was most quiet, invariably they would switch over on to us, several  were wounded at different times when it was least expected, and about this time night attacks were very frequent and severe.

Transcription: At 6:30am the Dragoons stopped to water their horses' when a farm worker reported seeing four German cavalrymen coming down the road. A plan was hatched to capture them as they passed. Benjamin was out of sight, along with the rest of 4th troop, who were mounted with swards drawn.   However, a movement of a horse alerted the Germans who turned around. The 1st Troop headed by Captain Hornby pursued the fleeing Ilhans. The rest of the squadron followed the Germans into the village where they joined a larger group of cavalrymen. A skirmish ensued with swards clashing with lances and several of the enemy was downed before they scattered. The Dragoons continued the chase for perhaps a mile until the Germans reached the crest of the road where they turned and began firing. Benjamin saw several of the enemy on the road and witnessed Thomas, a bandsman in the regiment, shot one of the German's from his horse. The whole confrontation could not have lasted more than three minutes before the order to cease fire and withdraw; Benjamin fought in every battle, was wounded twice but survived the war.34   When the British patrol reported their encounter, Sir John surmised that he was facing the German First Army. He was reluctant to attack without knowing the enemy's strngth, so he decided insteaf to take defensive positions along the Mons Canal.   He ordered General Haig's I Corps to form a defensive line east of the city, while General Sir Horace SMith-Dorrien's II Corps secured positions to the west.   The British landing sites were kept secret so Von Kluck was surprised to hear that he was facing the British BEF. He knew the British would be landing in Frnace but he did not know when or where until that moment.   His battle plan was to attack the British west flank, but this would requirw him to move his army a short distance to the west, away from thr German Second Army. To proceed with this plam would require permission from General Bulow.   Upon receiving von Kluck's request, Bulow was rearfyl that a gap might develop between their two armies, offering the enemy an opportunity to flank them. Consequently he denied the request, thus forcing von Kluck to attack the British head-on.
