*[[Percy Wilfred Machell|Lt-Col. Machell]] reports to [[Hugh Lowther, 5th Earl of Lonsdale|Lord Lonsdale]]: {{quote-left}}It is most kind of you to have ordered the football jerseys, & we shall be very pleased to wear your crest....we have had to evacuate the tents....as the water came through. However, they have got on well with flooring the loose boxes....Tomorrow our numbers should be 800, and I expect a big influx after the hirings. In the Race Stand buildings we have not accommodation for more than 350. If the Bar Stand can be made habitable, we can temporarily put 40 there, but it is wanted as a canteen. In stables, say, 300, & I should like to the use the Pavilion as a mess & recreation hut....so that we shall require hutments for 450 men.{{quote-right}} <ref>{{lowther|recno=279}}</ref> |
