Son of Charles and Jessie TRIGG.
Served as HENRY James
TRIGG. - In ever loving remembrance of my dear brother, Pte. James Henry Trigg, No. 2026, 1214 Battn., late 3/31 Battn, who was killed August 4th, 1916.
Sad was the blow that compelled us to part,
From you, dear loved one, so dear to my heart;
I miss you and mourn you in silence unseen,
And dwell on the memory of days that have been.
"Absent.''
