'Valuable Frangments from Flanders'
'It All Comes to this in Time'
"This interesting fragment found near Ypres (known to the ancients as Wipers) throws a light on a subject which has long puzzled science, i.e. what was the origin and meaning of those immense zigzag slots in the ground stretching from Ostend to Belfort? There is no doubt that there was some inter-tribal war on at this period." - Extract from The Bystander, A.D. 4916
