Last Sunday night there was another Zeppelin raid, in which

ten airships are believed to have taken part. One airship approached London from the north-west, but was brought to earth in flames near Potter's Bar shortly before midnight. Another which ap- proached London from the north-east was driven off about 1 a.m. The remaining airships wandered aimlessly over the Eastern Counties and Lincolnshire. Most of the bombs fell in open country. Our casualties were one man killed and a woman injured. Four houses were seriously damaged, some glasshouses were destroyed, and a number of windows were broken. The destroyed Zeppelin was of the latest type, " as long as Waterloo Bridge and twice as wide," as a writer in the Times said.
