They were foiled in all the other twelve.
It will be most convenient to describe these several efforts, and the countermines and other means by which they were defeated, post by post, rather than by order of date.
Saunders's post was not known to be threatened till a comparatively late period, August 23rd, when the enemy were heard at work opposite the left corner (next the Baily Guard gate), where a shaft had been already sunk, and a gallery started. On the sounds being heard, the gallery was ...advanced towards the enemy till the 26th, when it was stopped, as by that time all sound of work had ceased.
On the 31st, however, five days afterwards, they were again heard ; but as if they had started more to the rights and were driving from right to left slantwise across the front of the post and of our mine ; so our gallery was Continued from where it had before stopped, but with a bend in an intercepting direction, till the enemy came close ; it was then loaded and fired, the explosion rendering that imme- diate neighbourhood unfit for further hostile mining.
