INTELLIGENCE NOTE ON ROADS, WATER SUPPLY, etc. 7/7/15
The information given below is in amplification of previous
information concerning the water supply in the neighbourhood of
ANZAC.
The source of the information is two Greek peasants who have
been taken on as guides. They are uneducated and cannot read a map
but are intelligent.
The previous information dated May 27th. 1915 was given by one
of these men.
In general their information tends to show that :-
1. The country between Kutchuk and Biyuk Anafarta and the sea has
abundance of water principally xx from wells.
2. No water is actually to be found on Sari Bair (Hill 971) on its
higher slopes.
3. There is good water between Biyuk Anafarta and Boghali and at
the latter place. Also at Eski Keui.
To sum up it appears that the water question even in July should
not be a serious one, should we make an advance from our present position.
1. The information concerning the well mentioned in 1st. Para. of
note of May 27th. (Sq. 263 Z 6 approx.) is corroborated. This well is
apparently fed by a stream ( 6 - 7 yards broad and about 18" deep at
present) which rises in the Kizlar Dagh. It should more properly
be called a reservoir perhaps. This is the guides speak of as being
capable of providing water for 10,000 men (but this is probably merely
figurative)*
11. The water in the Topalin Mezar Dere is brackish and not good
except for animals, but the country from the Salt Lake up to Kutchuk
Anafarta consists of many farms, each one of which has one or two wells
of good drinking water.
111. The water at Kutchuk Anafarta is plentiful. There are 4 or 5 wells
of good water, about 20 - 30 feet deep and containing about 15 feet of
water. They are 3 - 4 feet in diameter. There are also 4 small
reservoirs fed by a stream from which the water is taken off by 4 lines
of pipes and there are 4 taps at which to draw water. The water runs off
through the village.
1v. Between Kutchuk and Biyuk Anafarta the Asha Dere runs. About
half way between the two places the road crosses this river by a bridge.
Ten minutes above this bridge are some ancient reservoirs ( 6 to 10 )
built of stone, about 6 feet in diameter, and 7 or 8 feet deep. Here
the river is about 10 feet broad and 18 inches deep, but it disappears
into the sandy soil before it reaches the bridge.
About 10 minutes below the bridge is an excellent well. There is
a Persian water wheel here worked by a donkey to water the farm near by.
All the country between Biyuk Anafarta and the sea is dotted over
with many farms, each of which has one or two wells. In fact water is
plentiful. (i.e., all along country roads through which the Inam Chai
(Aghil Derey is shown to run. Informants speak of there being wells
every 100 yards or so, but this is no doubt a figure of speech).
v. Informants state there is running water in the gullies at the foot
of the hills between here and Kutchuk Anafarta ( W Hills).
vi. There are 6 or 8 wells in the houses in Biyuk Anafarta, but the
principal supply is brought from the foot of Sari Tepe (about 3/4 mile)
by means of a pipe (diameter about 6 inches). The water is brought
from a spring, and after filling a small reservoir in the village, the
overflow runs off and joins the Aghil Deresi.
vii. On Sari Bari there is no water.
viii. At Dagchekeui there are 3 or 4 wells.
ix. The system or drawing water from the wells is that of the Egyptian
"shaduf".
(pencil drawing of shaduf - see original)
x. At intervals of about 1/4 of an hour there are wells (4) between Biyuk
Anafarta and Boghali.
xi. There is an excellent big well in Boghali and the water at and near
Eski Keui is plentiful, the latter district being composed of many farms.
Hano farm is especially mentioned as providing good and plentiful water.
The spring called Panachia (the spring of the Virgin MaryX which is
to the west of Eski Keui (on Kaba Tepe road) supplied water to 15,000
pilgrims to the shrine, during three days, according to informant.
xii. Killa Liman and neighbourhood has a large supply of water
from springs and wells
xiii. Uzundare to Silvili but little water but good supply at latter
place.
xiv. Taifurkeui has a large water supply. In the village there
are several fountains and there are springs in the neighbourhood:
All this district up to Yeni Keui is rich in streams and
wells:

My Dear Colonel,
I have no desire to embark
upon a controversy with Maj Edwards
but the facts are (a) that I was
present during the whole of the interview
between Maj Edwards & Col
Braithwaite (b) that he never told
Braithwaite that you could not
spare him but said that you had sent
him over here to see about the job.
(c) Braithwaite said asked if he had
any knowledge of mining work &
he said he had none but that he lived
in Broken Hill (d) that his whole
attitude & talk was of a man after
a job (e) that he asked Braithwaite
at the end if he had any objection to him
(Edwards) going on to see Pridham about
it. (f) that Braithwaite can be
applied to confirm any of the above if
necessary.
The above is my recollection of the interview
Yours Sincerely

MEMORANDUM
PRECAUTIONS AGAINST GAS POISONING
In order to dissipate poisonous gas clouds you will be
issued with spraying Machines in the proportion of 4
Sprayers to each Infantry Brigade and Mounted Rifles
Brigade, and 3 to each Light Horse Brigade.
Instructions for the use of these Sprayers are
enclosed in each box, but they appear to be the ordinary
ones in use for spraying fruit trees, of which no doubt many
of the men have a knowledge: but you should ensure that
several men in each unit are trained in the use and care
of the machines.
A proportion of chemicals for the use in the sprayers
is also being issued to you.
The proportion of each is as follows:-
SODIUM HYPOSULPHITE 6 lbs.
SODIUM CARBONITE 1/4 lb.
WATER 3 gallons.
GLYCERINE is not essential, but if used, 2 ounces
should be added to above mixture.
The machines should be kept constantly filled and ready
for use, and the liquid sprayed into the advancing cloud of
gas as soon as it is within reach.
