Daughter of William John YOUNG and Harriet nee WRIGHT
SISTER LOUISE YOUNG who is to leave for America during the week to visit her sister. Sister Young saw three years' war service. She was on Lemnos until after the evacuation, in Egypt, in England, and one year in France, and was invalided home last year. Sister Young was a great favourite with her soldier patients. As well as nursing them, she was in the fortunate position of being able to expend most of her earnings on extra comforts for them. She is a daughter of the late Mr. W. J. Young, M.A., of Trinity College, Dublin, principal of Windsor Grammar School.
