Convoy separated, 12 vessels proceeding with us to Brest. Wireless intercepted requesting extra deep anchorage, and we concluded Leviathan (Vaterland) was putting in. Arrived Brest 4 P. M.; passed near Leviathan, full of troops, some shoving off on liberty. Prometheus restored liberty. Movies on the Panther.

Isham B. Hudson: May 2, 1919

Isham Hudson diary - May 2, 1919.

"On Fame's eternal camping ground
their silent tents are spread.
And glory guards with
solemn hearts
The bivouac of the dead."

Here's a little book, Minnie,
I give with hesitation.
But once I'm home I'll send one
With many a recitation.

Some of the women are terribly dressed, how the German people can see them walk about like this I don’t know, Germany will pay later on for the way they’re being treated, poor devils.

At Maehira we found an empty hut which people told us was an army officer's hut. We slept peacefully in it. We decided not to go to Mabuni because we were so tired. We wept at the kindness of the village people of Maehira.
