first world war. He is Mi-. William Wilson,
whose son, also named Wil liam, lives in Mytton View Clitheroe, and whose grandson, Mi-. Dennis Wilson, followed in his grandfather's footsteps— he became a joiner, and even tually the proprietor of the joinery firm in Well Fold, formerly owned by the Higson family.

both served in the Army. When Mi-. Wilson senior wrote home to say he would shortly be arriving on draft leave his letter coincided with the arrival of- his son’s call-up papers. The news proved such a shock to Mrs. Wilson that she was taken ill and died shortly afterwards. As a result of her death, All-. Wilson was taken off the draft.

About two years after the WORK AGAIN
Mi-. Wilson soon found him self with too much leisure time and promptly set up in busi ness as a joiner on his own account.
Retiring at Che age of 65,
Mi-. Wilson went to live at the Goodwood Hostel, Park Lane, Blackpool, where he has since resided except for a year which he spent hi hospital, during which he celebrated his 90th birthday.- While in hospital Mr. Wilson was a most active patient, insisting upon making his own bed and helping the staff as much as possible.
