dier's tablet reads: Beneath this stone
rests the Lody Of a British warrior, I'M
known by name or rank, brought from
France, to lie among the most illustrious
of the land. He was buried here on Ar
mitioe day, Nov. IL, 1921, in the presence
of His Majesty, King George V, his
ministers of state and the chiefs Of his

1914-191S gave the most that man can
give-life itself-for God, king and coun-
try. for his loved ones at home and for
the sacred cause Of justice and freedom
of the world"
Probably the most human element In
the ceremonies was the procession Of I'M
employed men, women, boys and girls.
This procession was half mile long,
running from the east end to West

war decorations, yet many reached their
destination after a five mile tramp in
state of collapse due to under feeding.
Onlookers freely contributed to the
fund for the unemployed.
