He took part in a raid in which we also lost some of our best officers and men killed during the raid, and in bringing in the wounded. He will be very much missed in the Machine Gun Section, with whom he was held in the greatest esteem, and, although they are separated from the Company, we all feel the same for one of our members, and I know I am expressing the feelings of everyone in the Company. He has done his duty well, and made the greatest sacrifice that is possible.’ (The Kidderminster Shuttle, 28 October 1916 refers).
