A sad fatality which occurred on march 13 1923 has caused deep regret in the Mypolonga Sub Branch. Mr LD Evans who served in the Field Ambulance and Artillery AIF was found dead by his pal Mr G Leavit. Mr Evans was extremley popular, a thorough gentleman and highly repected by all who knew him. He was an orchardist with a good property near the Lone Pine packing sheds and the work he had put in was just begining to show a return. Deep sympathy is felt for the parents of our dead comrade who survived the war to go out with a shot gun which he had used in trying to stop the depredations of the birds in the orchard. Members of the Sub Branch felt very destressed at the sad loss of so popular and gential of comrades. Diggers Gazette 1923.
