GRANT HIM LORD ETERNAL REST & LET LIGHT PERPETUAL SHINE UPON HIM
Our Telangatuk East correspondent writes :--Fred Ramseyer, one of the brave lads who enlisted from here, has paid the supreme sacrifice. He was wounded during the great push in France and taken prisoner. Word has just arrived that he died of septic poisoning. He was a nephew of Mr. Richard Johnson. Much sympathy is felt for the bereaved relatives.
