Letter from Major General L.J. Lipsett

3rd Canadian Division

Dear General DYER:-

I went through some of your trenches yesterday - TEDDY GERRARD and DORIS. I was very pleased to find how well the trenches, bombs and rifles were kept.

Will you please convey this to the battalions - it speaks very well for the trench discipline.

Yours sincerely,
(sd) L.J. LIPSETT,
Major General.
