Sympathy was expressed on the Stock Exchange today with Mr H. F. C. Keats, one of the members, whose son, Second-Lieutenant F. T. Keats, of the Eighth Suffolk Regiment, was killed in action in Northern France on May 25.
Mr Keats received a cable message to that effect from the secretary to the War Office this morning. Lieut. Keats was at Cambridge when war was declared.
