1917 July 31 cont last night, the area of LA COULOTTE, LENS - ARRAS ROAD
and LA COULOTTE 1 ROAD as far as GIVENCHY was shelled
intermittently. Also the trench occupied by our right
Company in AVION. Most of the shells were wiz bangs
and 4.2's. At noon the vicinity of the craters at N. 26.
C. 1.9. was heavily shelled. During the night the area
of SULLIVAN TRENCH was bombarded from the direc-
tion of the railway embankment and FOSSE .4.
The registration on the Trench line was poor and no
damage was caused. Every machine gun activity
was below normal. Some indirect fire was directed
on the LENS - ARRAS ROAD during the night near junc-
tion of Columbia Trench. Practically no losses
were caused or any damage resulted from hostile
Artillery activity. Little or no enemy, movement
was observed during the day.
