"The full band of the 1st Training Battalion preceded the procession to the churchyard. The firing party, 12 in number, were from the comrades of the deceased soldier and a number of person friends marched to the graveside. Full burial honours were paid to the deceased soldier and a number of beautiful wreaths presented by comrades were placed on the grave. The deceased was very popular with his comrades and officers, and his loss keenly felt by officers and men alike."
