               <p>This letter was sent by Major Terence (Terry) Duffin (1886 - 1936), to his father Adam Duffin (1841 – 1924). 

This letter is part of a rich correspondence between various members of the Duffin family, a large prosperous family living in Strandtown, Belfast. Several family members served in the war, including Major Terence Duffin, who served as a staff officer with 107 Brigade, and later with Royal Irish Rifles; Major Charles G Duffin MC, Royal Field Artillery; and their sisters Emma, Celia and Dorothy who served as Voluntary Aid Detachments (VADS) in Egypt and France, and with the YMCA.</p>

             Dear <hi rend="underline">Father</hi>   Just had the news through Edmund <lb/>of Dorothy's engagement. I am most <lb/>awfully glad to hear of it and am <lb/>sure he will prove nice—I should <lb/>very much like to meet <hi rend="underline">him</hi> but there <lb/>is no possibility of that. We are up here in the fighting <lb/>line once more and getting on well <lb/>though the heavy rain lately has <lb/>played havoc with our trenches— <lb/>many <seg type="unclear">subsidiaries</seg> and endless <lb/> work keeping them under repair <lb/>and making them habitable — ) <lb/>am sorry for the unfortunates who <lb/>have to spend their time constantly <lb/>standing in water or cold slush <lb/>up to their knees; and yet through <lb/>it all they keep cheerful and <lb/>in good health. Strangely <lb/>enough nearly all the casualties <lb/>we have are caused through <lb/>carelessness or rather callousness
            <pb n="2" facs="L1916_4158_img_3531_2"/>
            men looking over the trenches <lb/>to see how things are going <lb/> on etc. It seems strange <lb/>that they have to be taught <lb/>how to take care of themselves.   Our Hd. On is in a <lb/>small village about a mile <lb/>from the nearest trenches— <lb/>The village has been fairly <lb/>well shattered through shell <lb/>fire at different times. <lb/>We have our office and <lb/>2 rooms in one house and <lb/>the men and other rooms in <lb/>a house next door.   My bed room is a bit <lb/>skew-eyed and most of the <lb/>windows gone and the room <lb/>next door is a complete waster — <lb/>a shell <seg type="del">next door</seg> went clean <lb/>through it about 2 months <lb/>ago, knocking out both <lb/>walls and pretty well <lb/>making a muck of things
            <pb n="3" facs="L1916_4158_img_3531_3"/>
            inside! We are all <lb/>perfectly comfortable nevertheless <lb/>and in a palace compared to <lb/>the poor souls in the trenches.   We have a large cellar <lb/>to which we are able to fly when <lb/>they start shelling — so far <lb/>we have been left in peace!   We come up here for a <lb/>spell and then are relieved by <lb/>another Brigade, when we <lb/>retire to another village farther <lb/>back till our tour of duty <lb/>comes round again—   Everybody is at it hard in <lb/>both cases and there is no <lb/>time to stop and think, which <lb/>is really a blessing.   my work up in their <lb/>part changes a bit.— <lb/>corrospondence still continues
            <pb n="4" facs="L1916_4158_img_3531_4"/>
            but is varied by my having <lb/>to draw and deespatch to <lb/>the trenches each night what <lb/>they require in trench stores — <lb/>barbed wire, stakes, <seg type="unclear">questionable reading</seg> <lb/>for any cuts. Corrugated iron <lb/>etc. The difficulty of <lb/>course is the supply which <lb/>is only a fraction of the demand <lb/>and the trouble is to apportion <lb/>it off equally to all.   Every thing is wonderfully <lb/>systematic — I am in charge <lb/>of a Brigade workshop where <lb/>we keep 40 men employed <lb/>making everything we can deal <lb/>with to help men in the <lb/>trenches, floor boards, <lb/>fire <seg type="unclear">slips</seg>, parts of dug <lb/>outs etc.   The men now get a hot <lb/>bath nd change of clothes <lb/>when they come from the
            <pb n="5" facs="L1916_4158_img_3531_5"/>
            trenches — They work it by seizing <lb/>any old barn or broken down <lb/>factory and make baths out <lb/>of barrels and tubs; hot water <lb/>is raised in many ingenious way <lb/>— in one place they still work <lb/>the stem boiler of a sugar <lb/>factory though to look at <lb/>the place outside you could <lb/>scarcely believe it as it has <lb/>been so much knocked about.  I am getting a few papers <lb/>from Belfast for the men but could <lb/>swallow dozens more — we have <lb/>a small recreation room run <lb/>by a person in the rest  &amp; <lb/>I send most of them round <lb/>there. Tell Ruth her <seg type="unclear">"whig"</seg> <lb/>arrives regularly.   There is what they call a <lb/>Field Force Canteen near here where <lb/>we can buy additional luxuries <lb/>to add to our Government rations
            <pb n="6" facs="L1916_4158_img_3531_6"/>
            so I am in no need of food <lb/>luxuries and find that I can now <lb/>get tobacco and cigarettes there.   Glad to hear all goes well <lb/>at home and that you are still <lb/>getting some business through —   We get a free of papers here but I scarcely even have <lb/>time to read them so know nothing <lb/>of what is going on and are <lb/>always glad of the summ— <lb/>aries in your letters   I have been at work every <lb/>day so far from about 8AM till <lb/>11 P.M at night and just as <lb/>hard at all the time as I can <lb/>lay into it.   Just received mothers letter <lb/>tonight dated the seventh for <lb/>which please thank her.   My pockets are filling <lb/>with letters, mostly all unanswered <lb/>I fear — One of my many

            jobs is making out warrants for <lb/>all officers and men of the Brigade <lb/>who go on leave — it is no small <lb/>task in itself as each warrant <lb/>requires two signatures and I <lb/>find it tantalising signing <lb/>warrants to Belfast and the North <lb/>of Ireland — However all who <lb/>go in have earned it 20 <lb/>times over.   Best love to all <lb/>from <lb/>Your own   <hi rend="underline">Terry</hi>   P.S. I should be glad if my winter <lb/>flannels could be sent out.   They are in a drawer in <lb/>my room <lb/>Ter
