IN MEMORIAM.

YOUNG.—In loving Inemory of my dear son, Rifleman W. W. Young-, killed in action in France, September 15th, 191(1, Somewhere in France—-no matter where— He was just as near to Heaven As though he had laid on his bed at home A lien the signal to “Cease” was given. He has borne his cross, lie has gained his crown, Though he lies in a far-off grave, And we think of his life, a duty done, Manly, unselfish, and brave. —lnserted by his loving mother and sisters. YOUNG. —In loving memory of 24/2308 Rifleman \V. W. Young, killed in action in France, September 15th, 191(1. We little thought when home on leave It was his last good-bye, That he had left his home for ever, In a foreign land to die. Could wo have raised Ids dying head, Or heard his last farewell, The grief would not have been so hard For those who loved him'well. —lnserted by his loving brothers, YOUNG. —In proud and loving memory of our dear brother, ‘William Walter Young, who was killed in the Somme Battle, September 15th, 191(1.” He sleeps not in his native land. But bieath a foreign sky, And far from those who loved him best, In a hero’s grave he lies. —lnserted by J. and .NY Young. HOWE. —In loving memory of Leonard Howe,’killed in action in France, September 15th, 191(5. Somewhere in France he is lying, He answered his country's call, He died a New Zealand hero, Bravely lighting for us all. —lnserted bv A. Kruse and family.
