There was another scare of
aeroplanes, and the whole town emptied itself, families pouring by en
route for the country; but the planes did not come. I went down to the
arsenal and got on with the repairs. Dr. May lent me her camera and I
got some photos. Mrs. Stobart went off with her "flying field force,"
taking with her nearly all the men and almost all the cars: if the
hospital get many serious cases I imagined that they would be dreadfully
shorthanded.
In the night the two German aeroplanists were buried without military
honours. The Serbs said that they were assassins and deserved nothing.
Still, Kragujevatz is an arsenal.
October 6th. Another aeroplane scare; town emptied itself once more. Dr.
MacLaren and I rushed off to the anti-aircraft guns, hoping to get some
photos; but nothing occurred. Got the Rudnik car running by taking Mr.
McBlack's useless car to pieces. In the evening two sisters went to
Uskub. One of the sisters went to get her bag, and I took what I thought
to be a short cut to help her.
