Soldiers Dying Request
Information is wanted of the whereabouts of the wife and family of William Hargreaves, of the A.V.C. or Engineers, who was killed in France. Before dying he said to a comrade, "Take my cap badge, and if you can find my wife, give it to her." This has been left with Mr. Hargreaves, of the Royal Butterfly Hotel, Burnley.
