I hope we shall soon be having some inter-Company matches in the [[Lonsdale Battalion|Lonsdale Battalion]], when D Company, which is noted for it’s forcefulness and dash, will, no doubt, do as well in the football field as it is doing in the [[trench]]es. If you want to see some real ‘muddied oafs’ come here when D Company comes out of the trenches – but they are merry still. Believe me, very heartily yours.<ref>''[[Lonsdales got Their Football]]''.
