"THE LATE PRIVATE J. H. EVERATT.
News has been received by Miss H. Everatt, of Adelaide, that her brother, Private James Henry Everatt, was killed in action in France on August 5 last. He was 20 years of age, and left for the front from Adelaide on December 2, 1915. Prior to enlisting he was employed on a sheep station at Reedy Creek, and was well liked on account of his genial and kindly disposition." - from the Adelaide Chronicle 30 Sep 1916 (nla.gov.au)
