In a letter received by Mrs Amy Isaac, of Brooklyn, Wellington, from her eon, now serving in France, the writer states: "Fritz" you Avill know is a past master in the art of building dugouts, and a few days ago I had a look at one of his best. From what. I saw, I am quite satisfied that he thought his life safe for a few years to come, for he went to great trouble with his underground home in this case, probably 100 ft down into the earth with several entrances leading into the. broad passageways, glass doors at each end, ami perhaps 10 bedrooms, beautifully papered and well supplied with large mirrors ; a kitchen and stove with all modern conveniences, a splendid dining room, and so on, safe from the largest shells and lit with electric light throughout, woodwork painted white for all the world like the inside of some ship; a house in which any officer could live with his family in perfect safety.
