HAVE WE FORGOTTEN?
Sir, —My committee extends an invitation to the residents of Edgecumbe and surrounding districts to join With us in the unveiling ceremony of the War Memorial Plaque at the Edgecumbe School on Saturday, April 22, at 1.45 p.m. This plaque contains the names of those men from this district who laid down their lives that we might continue to live as they lived* in freedom under the Union Jack.
“Read through our nances, and think of us, now dead Who stood here once like you and also read The names of men who in another war Died, as we died. And see there be no more.” All residents are called upon to attend this ceremony as a token of respect both to the dead and to their next-of-kin. D. S. RADCLIFFE. Chairman, Edgecumbe Memorial Committee. Edgecumbe, April 17.
