"THE LATE PRIVATE F. T. GREEN
Mrs. F. Green, of Howard-street, Hindmarsh, has received news that her husband, Private Fred T. Green, died of pneumonia in France on December 26. He was 40 years of age. He left for the front in March last, and after spending a short period in Egypt was transferred to France, where he served with the Pioneers until he contracted his fatal illness. He was the youngest son of the late Mr. William Green, of Hindmarsh. He was a plumber by trade, and worked for a number of years with Messrs. Jones & Ferguson, of Adelaide. He served his apprenticeship with the late Mr. W. Mitton, of Hindmarsh. Private Green leaves a widow and three children. The present is the third bereavement Mrs. Green has suffered in the war period, as a little more than a year ago two daughters died of meningitis. Private Green was well liked by his many friends and acquaintances." - from the Adelaide Chronicle 20 Jan 1917 (nla.gov.au)
