Private 33789, 8th Battalion, Bedfordshire Regiment. You were a clarinetist in the military band. If the band were not playing, you were collecting the injured from the battlefield. It was in April 1917 when you were wounded in the Battle of Arras. You died of your injuries on 18/04/17 leaving a wife, Edith, behind you. I would love to have met you, my Nan Amy, your sister talked so highly of you. Unfortunately this was not to be. I now work in Parliament Street in London and will visit the Cenotaph to remember you. With love Nanette x
