and Ervillers.
Sharp fighting has taken place
along the Irles-Grcvlllers road. The
Germans are clinging to Miraumont
on the Ancre northeast ot Albert,
fighting desperately.
German prisoners say that It was
expected that the British would stop
at the Arras-Albert railroad and the
unexpected success against them had
confused tho German forces.

Tired and depleted German divis
ions that had been withdrawn from
the battle since August 8 are being
rushed back into the fight.. Troops
from the enemy's reserve divisions,
which had been held for counter
attacks, also have appeared along the
front.
