Corp. Frank E. Lindsay (24th Batt.) after being reported missing has been reported killed. His parents reside at 72 Collett Street. So also Pte. W. A. Creswick previously reported missing is now reported killed. His relatives reside at 3 Wanalta Terrace, Mt. Alexander Rd. To these two households we offer our true sympathy. Let us "not sorrow even as others which have no hope." Our loved ones have gone to "obtain joy and gladness and sorrow and sighing shall flee away."
