Dear Friends

 

We have been requested by Our Sunday School Board to Convey to you Our Warm and Sincere Sympathy in the great loss you have Sustained by the death of your Son & Brother Hugh. We believe your Sorrow Will be to Some extent mitigated by the noble and Unselfish death he died

 

The Master has Said that, Greater Love hath no man than this that a man lay down his Life for his friends. It May be Said that no man hath greater Love Than a man gave his Life for his Country. This great eulogy your Noble Son has won.

 

He died the death of a 'Hero' fighting for Truth, Justice & Liberty

 

His death will be an inspiration to all the Members of Our Staff who knew him

 

His Sterling qualities of heart, Mind & Soul to Strive in a Smaller sphere to uphold those great Principles for which he died

 

He gave his Life for his Country and for us, And has already heard with great Joy. The Masters words Well Done! Thou good and faithful Servant.

 

yours in the Masters Service

 

 

Wm W Fox Supt.

 

H. Duffelt Sect.
