Dear Dad Mum & All.

We have been in the trenches this shift, seven days as yet, and expect to go into support in a few days from now. Work is going along very smoothly as yet – Plenty of shells from Fritz – but the damage is negligable –

It is an undisputed fact that we have the accendancy over him, in almost, every phase – Our Artillery is splendid –

Our raids on old Von's trench (minor attacks) are not at all to his liking, and keep him very uneasy – My "trap" pleased the Brigadier & Bde. Major immensely – I think it will prove a success. The war news is awfully good
– (1) Result of North Sea battle –
