Biography contributed by Faithe Jones

Son of Henry BLYTON & Eliza nee GLANVILLE, Hill End via Bathurst, NSW

BLYTON. — In loving memory of Privates H. C. and B. L. Blyton, killed in action somewhere in France, May 15, 1917.
Do not ask us how we miss them,
There is such a vacant place;
Can we e'er forget their footsteps,
And their dear familiar faces.
Time has passed and still we miss them,
Words would fail our love to tell,
But in heaven we hope to meet them,
Jesus doeth all things well.
Inserted by their loving sister and brother-in-law, Elva and Jim Glawson.
