On Friday week the Germans in great force attacked our

stubborn front north of the Somme, as far as Bucquoy. They employed ten divisions, but were repulsed with immense losses. At two points on the Ancre south of Albert they got into our lines, but were ejected by a counter-attack. Our men on the same day made a local attack near Hebuteme and took two hundred prisoners.
