Case 39676. Copy of letter from the army to the Manchester Branch Waifs and Strays 5 December 1916View the Case Summary.
Dec: 5th., 1916 O/B/C. Dear Sirs, Thank you for your information regarding T., who I am sorry to learn has been killed. Before I can have this soldier remembered at St. Paul's Cathedral I shall be glad to know the exact date when he was killed, and in what part of the war area. You will, I am sure, readily understand that it is necessary to be quite sure about a soldier's death before having him remembered at St. Paul's, and perhaps you can let me know on what authority you have received the information, and, if possible, give the date and place. Yours faithfully, The Hone: Secretaries,
