4th December 1914
FROM BELGIUM – We regret to announce that Mr and Mrs George Day
of Lower Rank, has this week received official information that their
eldest son Fred, of the 1st Hampshire Regiment has been missing since
3rd October. The information bears the usual formal notice that this
does not mean that he is killed or wounded, but might have been taken
prisoner or cut off from his regiment. Mr and Mrs Day have another son
on duty with the forces, but this one, Frank, of the Wessex A.S.C. is at
present in the home camp.
