Percy Ottley Clarence PINNER
Son of David & Mrs Janette Pinner
Of Mt Pleasant, Tasmania
Word was received this week by Mr. and Mrs. Pinner, of Mount Pleasant, of the death in France on February 27 of their eldest son, Private Percy Pinner. It came as a great shock to all, as he only went away in August of last year, with his younger brother, who is still in the firing line in France. He was a fine, sturdy young man, always ready to do a kindly act.
