MILLER, Ronald Allen.—Dearly loved grandson of Mrs. E. and the late Mr. G. Minor, of 45 West st., Brompton, and loved nephew of May and Eva.
Far away from those who loved him.
Comrades have laid him to rest;
In a hero's grave he is sleeping.
One of God's brightest and best.

MILLER.—Killed in action on July 27, Pte. Ronald Allen Miller, loving son of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Miller.
Deep in our hearts a memory is kept
Of a dear loving face we will never forget.
