FREDERICK W. EVANS: School House (1908-10); son of Mr. and Mrs. Evans of Swansea. Died of wounds received in action on October 29th, 1916, while in France with the Welch Regiment. He was a boy of sunny temperament, charming all by his engaging simplicity and natural happiness of character. Few can have made more friends at school. Not greatly gifted intellectually, he never rose above an average place in school, but had he not left young to go into business, he would certainly have been one of our most distinguished athletes. As it was he never actually gained any Colours except his 2nd XI. cap in 1909 and 1910. But he was a most promising runner, especially at middle distances; and many will also remember him as 'the most impudent seller of dummies' that ever graced the 2nd game three-quarter line and a delighted experimenter in 'googlies.' Everything lie did was done cheerily and gayly; no doubt he went into battle with just such a gallant joyousness. The world is the less bright for his untimely death.
