...and a Cross Now Marks His Place (feat. Nick Holmes)

de 1914

Dear Mother
I regret very much to inform you
That your son Private A.G. harrison
Was killed in action on the night of the 21st instant

Death was instantaneous and without any suffering
The company was taking part in an attack
And your son's gun team was one of them
Which advanced against the enemy

The attack was successful
And all guns reached and established new positions

Later in the night the enemy shelled our lines
And one shell fell on your son's gun
Killing him and wounding a comrade
It was impossible to get his remains away
And he lies in a soldier's grave where he fell

I and the C.O. and all the company
Deeply sympathize with you in your loss
Your son always did his duty
And now has given his life for his country

We all honour him
And I trust you will feel some consolation in remembering this
His number was 62732 of this company

Later in the night the enemy shelled our lines
And one shell fell on your son's gun
Killing him and wounding a comrade
It was impossible to get his remains away
In true sympathy, yours faithfully, War
