Section 65 has been enjoying a three weeks repos, but goes back to action tomorrow. 
No killed or wounded. 
Section is in mourning over the loss of its beloved Chef, James L. Tompson, formerly of Section 13, who suddenly made up his mind to return to America. He took with him Brewster Cleveland, affiliated with Section 65 from Section 13.  Both losses are sorely felt.  Section at present is in charge of Sous-Chefs Quirin and Caldwell. Our number has been increased by one by W. W.
