William, I am not aware of the circumstances of your death, but, as a former member of the Lincolns myself, I am pleased to be given this opportunity to salute you as a brave young soldier who lost his life in the service of his country in the Ypres Salient. I trust that the Guard of Honour at your funeral service fired the traditional salute to a fallen comrade. You were laid to rest in Tyne Cot Cemetery, Zonnebeke, where 30 other members of our regiment were buried. In addition to your gravestone at Tyne Cot, I also trust that you were commemorated on your home town war memorial. My sympathy to your parents and other relatives who mourned your sacrifice. Rest in Peace. Harry.
Henry Harrison
