The effects of the war upon the country homes of England are described in interesting style in a letter received by an Auckland resident from a lady correspondent who had been staying in Essex. Writing on August 14th she stated that some farm-houses and the towers of two churches had been blown up, as they might have served as landmarks for "the enemy. ''Spies are everywhere," the letter states. "A German spy was caught in the grounds here the. other day, and we are twelve miles from Colchester or Ipswich, quite in the country. In Devon spies have been caught in remote villages. Prices went up enormously when the war began, but have gone. down. Petrol is dear, hut a substitute is being provided—a great mercy. . . Before the war I went to see, an old lady at Felixstowe, who had a nice house and superb gardens on the cliff and terrace walks but in the cliffs. Now 1 fear they are occupied by guns and her house blown up, as it was a landmark."
