The warmth and the hardships are evocatively conveyed through vivid domestic detail - paraffin lamps and outside ‘lavvies,’ smells of lavender polish and soot in the parlour ‘kept for best.’ There are also lesser known stories such as the personal and social cost of laudanum addiction fuelled by unscrupulous pharmacists. <div><br /></div><div>When Emily’s mother dies she is forced, at eleven, to leave her four beloved brothers and live with her cruel, resentful aunt; at twelve she is old enough to leave school and go into service. As war breaks out and the recruiting drive swings into action the young men in the village join up with brothers, cousins, school mates, boys they played football with, and friends from the Sunday School. While the novel is set in Leicestershire, it was a familiar pattern all over the country. </div><div><br /></div><div> David is accused by an army Major of being a ‘shirker’ because he is not in uniform, despite the fact he works in the boot and shoe industry, a reserved occupation. Leicester factories at that time were producing military footwear, including boots for the Russian army. Not wanting to be seen as a coward, he volunteers. When Emily agrees to become David’s fiancé before he leaves for the war, local gossips are scandalised. David Adcock and Emily Jane Wade are the author’s grandparents. </div><div><br /></div><div>As she writes in the Afterword:
‘The novel ‘Don’t be Late in the Morning ‘is a work of fiction but it is founded upon a detailed reading of military history, official documents, and most significantly, unpublished primary sources, which reveal the human and personal cost of the conflict.’ </div><div><br /></div><div>Postcards, birthday cards, letters, diary entries and photographs are reproduced in the novel. The context of the war is conveyed through family debates around the kitchen table, newspaper articles discussed in the pub, and political meetings talked about after football matches. Ernest, Emily’s brother joins up because he is ‘sick of skiving leather... I’ll get regular meals, free uniform, no board to pay and a regular wage.’ That and the chance to travel was ‘everything I’ve always wanted.’ Those who volunteered were proud to see their names appear in the Roll of Honour printed each week in the Leicester Mercury. The pace of the novel increases with descriptions of Leicester ‘taken over by the military,’ with patriotic parades, marching bands, barracks life and square bashing, banter and camaraderie. </div><div><br /></div><div>Girls and young women saw brothers, cousins, neighbours and sweethearts go to war. Some, like Emily’s colleague were left to cope with unwanted pregnancies. Emily now works in the Post Office and delivers mail; new opportunities meant she could leave service, as many young women did at that time. Middle class women bemoaned the lack of domestic servants. </div><div><br /></div><div>Dr Ette is unsparing in her descriptions of the brutality of trench warfare. That the reader knows the names, faces and families of the young volunteers adds to the horror. She describes events on 13th October 1915, in what she calls the ’forgotten Battle,’ the Battle of Hohenzollern Redoubt. This action took place during the final stage of the Battle of Loos, a battle that does not receive the same coverage as later battles on the Somme and Third Ypres. On that one day over 500 young men were killed, many from the 1st/4th Battalion of the Leicester Regiment. Most were between the ages of 17 and 23. It was said that in some parts of Leicester there was such a density of casualties that distraught families could be heard grieving from house to house. </div><div><br /></div><div> Obituaries from the Syston Parish Magazines are reproduced, often with photographs posed for so proudly at the outset of the war. ‘Captain of the Football club and one of the most regular boys in Mr Pain’s Bible Class,’ ‘...formerly a member of our Church Sunday School..., ‘Our sympathy goes forth to his widowed mother and relatives and we trust that the sense that the boy did his duty will be a consoling thought to them in their sorrow...’ </div><div><br /></div><div>The excellent bibliography gives an opportunity to learn more about events and individuals briefly referred to in the novel, for example Ramsay Macdonald, MP for Leicester and first leader of the Labour Party who opposed the war and ridiculed those who said it would be over by Christmas. His meetings in Leicester were disrupted by mob violence and on more than one occasion the police had to get him into a car before he was physically attacked. In August 1914 he wrote in the Leicester Daily Post. ‘Peace, if it is to be anything more than a patched up affair, is to raise anew some of the questions which have given Europe most trouble, as for instance the position of Poland.’ </div><div><br /></div><div>Other less well known stories include that of Kulbir Thapa, a Gurkha soldier awarded the Victoria Cross for rescuing a Leicestershire Regiment soldier from behind enemy lines, and then going back to save two men from his own battalion. </div><div><br /></div><div>Another tantalising reference in the novel is to John Manners, son of the 8th Duke and Duchess of Rutland. His mother, Violet Manners, used her influence to obtain a fraudulent medical discharge for him before he saw any action with his regiment, the 4th Battalion Leicestershires. She did not want to lose the heir to Belvoir Castle. The full story was published in Catherine Bailey’s ‘The Secret Rooms,’ Viking 2012.

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">On the 25th April 1917 the 1st Australian Tunnelling Coy, whilst at Hill 60, Belgium, suffered their biggest loss in one day during the war whilst testing detonators in a dugout. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">Saturday 21 December 2019 saw the launch of <i>‘Don’t Be Late in the Morning’</i> – the first and only novel to be written about the Leicestershire Regiment in the First World War.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">The two launch events were held at the Hub cafe in Syston in the morning, and the Carillon Tower and War Memorial Loughborough in the afternoon, where there was opportunity to speak to the author, Dr Karen Ette, buy a discounted and signed copy of the book and even sample a ‘rum ration’. The borough Carillonneur, Caroline Sharpe, played the clavier and familiar tunes, such as ‘Pack up your troubles’ ‘It’s a long way to Tipperary’ and ‘Keep the home fires burning’ rang out across Queens Park.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">Set in Syston, and culminating at the Battle of Loos in October 1915, this flagship novel tells the previously untold story of David Adcock, a Leicester Tiger, who fights alongside friends from his hometown of Syston and other town and villages across our historic county.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">Based on research carried out during her PhD at Loughborough University, this unique work of fiction uses exclusive private sources along with published accounts and Dr Ette weaves together truth and fiction to illuminate what has become a forgotten battle, fought by men from a town often overlooked in considerations of the Great War – Leicester.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">Importantly, these unpublished primary sources reveal the human and personal cost of the conflict and this is very important to author, Dr Karen Ette who says:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<i><span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">“My intention is that writing a novel using original, previously unseen documents, and real people, will rightfully establish the second offensive of the Battle of Loos in literature as one of the recognised battles rather than a forgotten one.”<o:p></o:p></span></i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;"><br />Publisher, Sarah Houldcroft – Goldcrest Books, also said:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-size: 12pt;">“<i>My interest was piqued when Karen explained to me that her story was based on original letters and diaries. When I heard more about the content, how could I not want to get involved with the book! So many brave men lost their lives for us in that awful war. I don’t usually get emotional when typesetting a manuscript but when I saw and read the magazine articles included in the book it did bring tears to my eyes. It is a wonderful testimony to all those young men.</i>”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0cm;">

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36pt;">

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">In 1911 David's widowed mother, Mary Adcock, and Emily's father, Alfred Wade, marry and they become step-brother and -sister. When war is declared in August 1914 David is working at the local shoe factory. After a village recruitment meeting he knows that at twenty he is old enough to serve abroad and volunteers to join the army, along with his pals, when there is still a sense of adventure and excitement about going to fight ‘the Hun’. </span><b><span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Emily is in domestic service, but moves back home where she takes over the running of the village post office after her fiancé is killed in action.

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle" style="line-height: normal; text-indent: 36pt;">
<span style="mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> In March 1915 the theatre of war in France and Flanders is the setting. The 1/4 battalion of the Leicestershire Regiment are mobilised and strong bonds are formed between the ‘Leicester Lads’, culminating in the little-known battle: Loos, 13th October 1915. Many of David's pals are killed and he is left for dead in a cellar after being badly wounded, whilst Emily waits for news.<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;"><span lang="EN-US">Wilfred Edward Salter Owen <span style="font-weight: normal;">was born a Shropshire lad on the </span></span><span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;">18th March 1893, the eldest of four
children – sister, Mary and brothers Harold and Colin. Wilfred was educated at
the Birkenhead Institute and then Shrewsbury Technical College. He did pass his
matriculation exam for the University of London, but not securing a scholarship
his parents could not afford for him to attend. Instead, he attended classes at
University College, Reading and worked as a lay assistant to the Vicar of
Dunsden. He taught English and French in Bordeaux, privately, from 1912. His
poetic influences came from the Bible and John Keats and when war was declared
he considered joining the French army, but later decided to return to England
where he joined the Artists' Rifles for officer training and received his
commission as second lieutenant in June 1916 with the Manchester Regiment.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">After
a number of traumatic experiences Wilfred Owen was diagnosed with neurasthenia
(shell shock) and was sent to Craiglockhart War Hospital for officers, in
Scotland. Here he met Siegfried Sassoon and that relationship transformed
Owen's life.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">One
of the most outstanding pieces of Great War literature has to be Pat Barker's <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Regeneration Trilogy</i> where both Owen and
Sassoon are brought to life. Barker uses one of Owen's corrected poems, <i>Anthem for Doomed Youth</i>, to
create a conversation between the pair in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Regeneration</i>.
The third book, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Ghost Road</i>, tells
of Owen's tragic death on the 4th November 1918, just one week before the Armistice
was signed.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">On
the 1st October 1918 Owen led units of the Second Manchesters to storm a number
of enemy strong points near the village of Joncourt and was awarded the
Military Cross for his courage and leadership, but was not gazetted until the
15th February 1919.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">Owen
was killed in action, aged just 25, on the 4th November 1918 during the crossing of the
Sambre-Oise canal and was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant the day
after his death. His parents received the sad news on Armistice Day. He is buried in Ors Communal Cemetery, France.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #222222; font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif;">His
poetry lives on and some of his famous works are used in many different ways;
in schools, on memorials, as insignias. Only five of Owen's poems were
published before he died.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Albert William
Howard Purnell was born on the 19th April 1893 in Cappoquin Parish, Waterford,
Ireland. He was the eldest son of Walter Purnell from Trowbridge in Wiltshire and
his wife, Alice, nee Knowles.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Walter had taken
a job in 1899 as an engineer's clerk at Herbert Morris and Bastert Limited,
Empress Works, Loughborough. In 1900 Albert's brother, Howard George, was born
in Waterford, Ireland and in 1901 the whole family were living at 41 Queen's
Road, Loughborough.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">On the 21st
January 1902, when Albert was eight, he joined the Loughborough Grammar School.
His father was then General Manager at the Empress Works. Albert's second
brother, Nelson Bruce, was born in Loughborough on the 2nd April 1906. On the
31st July 1907 Walter became a director of Herbert Morris and Bastert Limited
and in December that year Albert was 'top of the class' and his work was
'Excellent'. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Albert left the
Grammar School after seven years, on the 30th July 1909, when he was sixteen
and in the sixth form. He continued his education in Germany, specifically to
learn German and he went on to attend the State University at K</span><span lang="EN-US" style="color: black; font-weight: normal; mso-bidi-font-family: "Lucida Grande";">öt</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">hen (Anhalt). The 1911
census shows that the family had moved to 64 Beacon Road, Loughborough and a
third son, Nelson, was then five years old. Albert took his diploma in
Engineering at the university and achieved honours in all subjects. He then returned
to England in 1913 and joined his father at the Empress Works.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Albert enlisted
soon after the outbreak of war and served with the Mechanical Transport Corps, leaving
for France in October 1914. The MTC was extremely important in its role of
maintaining supply as the armies advanced over difficult terrain. Mechanical
Transport Companies were not under orders of a Division although some were
attached to a given Division and worked very closely with it. The service
numbers of soldiers who served in the Mechanical Transport were usually
prefixed with the letter 'M'. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Albert then
returned to England and passed through officer training in Bournmouth. Not long
afterwards he took up a commission and on the 10th September 1917, in a
supplement to the London Gazette, the following appeared: <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">William Frederick Jelley was the only son of Police
Sergeant Charles William Jelley and his wife, Temperance. In 1891 Charles,
Temperance and their daughter, Mary, aged six, were living in Barrow upon Soar.
William Frederick Jelley was born on the 22nd August 1895 in Syston,
Leicestershire. Charles and Temperance had two more children, but sadly they
didn't survive.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">In 1901 the family had moved to 193 Main Street,
Thurmaston and in 1909 they had moved again, to Loughborough, and were living
in Church Gate. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">William attended the Intermediate School in
Loughborough and on the 28th September 1909, when he was fourteen, he moved on
to the Loughborough Grammar School where he stayed for four years. His school
report showed him to be a good scholar, except in French where he "could
do better". He joined the Sixth Form in 1911 and the family had moved to
36 Leopold Street, Loughborough. His French was still "very poor" but
his results in Mathematics were good. He left the Grammar School on the 30th
July 1913 when he was almost eighteen to become a student teacher. He was also
one of the founders of the Nanpantan Troop of Boy Scouts, of which he was
Scoutmaster. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">When William Jelley was nineteen he had completed his
first year's teaching at the Church Gate Council School, and then war broke out
on the 4th of August 1914. William Jelley enlisted with the 8th Battalion of the
Leicestershire Regiment and on the 29th July 1915, after nearly a year's
training at Aldershot, the 8th Leicesters left camp for Folkestone to board the
troopship SS Golden Eagle, to take them to Boulogne, France. William Jelley
rose through the ranks from Private to Lance Serjeant. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;">On the 14th July 1916, the 8th Leicesters were to take
part in the battle of Bazentin Ridge and it was during this engagement, on the
15th July, that the now Serjeant Jelley received a gunshot wound to his left
arm. It took four days from being wounded to arrive back in England, via Base
Hospital at Rouen, and then hospital ship back to England. </span><span lang="EN-AU" style="font-size: 12.0pt;">Whilst he was recovering, Serjeant Jelley
was put through a training course and early in 1917, he obtained a commission
with the 6th Battalion Yorkshire Regiment, (Princess of Wales's Own), and
returned to the front a few weeks later.</span><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><span lang="EN-AU"> </span></i><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Rouen, Mr. and Mrs. Jelley visited William who was in a critical condition, the
gun-shot wound to his head was not life threatening, but the fracture to the
femur could cause complications. It was during this time, whilst in hospital,
that the news was conveyed on Second<sup> </sup>Lieutenant Jelley, that he had

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">William Leslie
Holt was born in Leicester on the 7th March 1898, the son of </span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: normal;">Shropshire
born Reverend Alfred Holt, who was a clergyman of the Church of England, and
his wife Sarah Annie, who was the daughter of the late James and Mary Walters
of Derby.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: normal;">In 1901, William was three years old and had three older
sisters, Margaret, sixteen, Dorothy, eleven and Milicent, seven. The family
were then living at 8 Upper King Street, Leicester. In 1901, when William was
thirteen, they had moved to The Vicarage, Holy Bones, Leicester and William's
father was also a schoolteacher with the Leicester borough Council Education
Authority.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: normal;">William attended the Wyggeston Boys' School in Leicester
from 1905 until May 1911 when the family moved to The Oaks Vicarge, Oaks Road,
Charley, near Loughborough where Reverend Alfred Holt took up his post as Clerk
in Holy Orders. William's sister, Dorothy, died in 1911 and William joined the
Loughborough Grammar School on the 5th May 1911, when he was thirteen. He spent
five years at the school where he joined the school's cadet force. He left when
he was almost nineteen (eighteen years and eleven months) and his report card
states that he was 'called up to the Army' and joined the Nottingham University
O. T. C. He was later transferred to an Officer Cadet Unit in Oxford and his
enlistment date is recorded as 28th March 1917 with the 10th Battalion of the
York and Lancaster Regiment, when he was gazetted as Second Lieutenant. He
served with the British Expeditionary Force in France and Belgium from the 10th
May 1917. On the 15th July 1917 he was wounded near Ypres and was 'home on
leave' in November 1917. Three weeks later,<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: normal;">Second Lieutenant Holt was killed instantly by a shell. His
records show that he was killed in action on the 23rd December 1917 as does De
Ruvigney's Roll of Honour and some Commonwealth Ward Graves Commission
documents, although others and his headstone show Saturday, 22nd December 1917.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-weight: normal;">His Commanding Officer wrote: "I need hardly say he is
a loss to this Battalion, as he was so cheerful and willing to do anything for
anybody." Four brother officers, in a joint letter, stated: "Your son
proved himself a most excellent soldier and comrade."<o:p></o:p></span></div>

was a mixture of strength and gentleness. Here he was liked and respected and

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Elise Margaret Kemp
was born on the 19th June 1881 in Wellington, New Zealand. Her father was Dr
William Kemp and her mother, Charlotte (nee Greenwood).<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">William Kemp was
originally from Northumberland and attended Durham University where he
qualified as a doctor of medicine. He went to work in Nelson, New Zealand as a
surgeon. It was whilst he was working here that he met his wife, Charlotte and
they were married in 1870. By this time William had moved to Wellington
hospital and the couple settled there. It is thought that William did become
New Zealand's Chief Medical Officer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Not long after
Elise was born, the family travelled to London. Elise was William and
Charlotte's third daughter and she had five siblings. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">In the 1901
census, William (54) and Charlotte (52), together with four of their children,
Violet (23), Elise (19), Kathleen (17), Charles (16) together with a domestic
servant and a cook, were living at 38 Alwyn Road, West Dulwich, London. Although
Elise's elder sister and brother are not listed, so they may have stayed in New
Zealand.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Elise Kemp
entered King's College Hospital's nursing school when she was twenty-three and
qualified after four year's of training. When war broke out, on the 4th August
1914, Elise became a member of the Territorial Forces Nursing Service and her
brothers joined the Royal Army Medical Corps. Elise served in London until
January 1916 when she was posted to the Western Front and worked in the 58th Casualty
Clearing Station, known as <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">West Riding
CCS</i>, which was located in Lillers, France between October 1915 and April 1918.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Although Sister
Kemp was attached to the 58th CCS she was on duty at the 37th CCS, which was
temporarily at Godewaersvelde from July to November 1917. During the evening of
the 20th October 1917, and without warning, the 37th CCS was targeted and
bombed by German aeroplanes. Sister Kemp and three of her patients were killed
when a shell landed close to the tent they were in. Three orderlies died that
night too and many were wounded.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">Sister Elise
Margaret Kemp was said to be "a splendid nurse who was loved and admired
by all who were privileged in knowing her."<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">She is buried at
Godewaersvelde British Cemetery, which is in Northern France, very close to the

Unfortunately a chance shell fell where we were killing another officer and wounding your son badly in the right leg and wrist, and another soldier, both of whom I am sorry to say died after we got them down to the dressing station.

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial"; font-weight: normal;">Walter
Stanley Gimson was born on the 3rd March 1885. He was the son of William
Gimson, a timber merchant from Leicester and Martha Gimson (nee Williams). He
had five older siblings, Emily, William, Henry, Annie and Edward, and three
younger siblings: a sister, Mary, who was born in April 1886, brother Albert
Yeomans, born February 1891 and another sister, Margery Clara, born 28th
January 1893.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial"; font-weight: normal;">In
the April 1891 census, when Walter was sixteen, the family was living at 110
Regent Road in Leicester and in 1901 they had moved to ‘Rothesay’, Victoria
Road, Leicester. Edward and Walter were carpenters and William jnr. was, like
his father, a timber merchant. The family employed a cook, Emily King and a
housemaid, Bertha Gibbs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: "arial"; font-weight: normal;">From
the 1911 census it can be seen that Walter, who at twenty-six was living with
the Slater family at ‘The Hawthorns’, Dagmar Grove, Alexander Park, Nottingham.
Mr Slater was a cabinet manufacturer, which was also Walter’s profession.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

was boarding with the Collins family who lived at <span style="color: #36322d;">4

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background: white; color: #36322d; font-family: "times new roman"; font-weight: normal;">In June 1916, Arthur enlisted with the Lincolnshire
Regiment in Stamford, initially as Private 5972 with the 4th Battalion and on
arrival at base camp almost immediately transferred to and served with the 6th
Battalion as Private 40788. He was most probably conscripted. </span><span style="font-weight: normal; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-bidi-font-family: "Times New Roman"; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

the night of the 24th/25th [July] the Battn. was relieved in the line by the
7th South Staffs and went back into Brigade Reserve on the Canal. While in the

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Whattoff Adcock was born in Syston, Leicestershire in 1889. His mother was Mary and his Father, David. David Adcock died tragically in 1895 leaving Mary and her four children without a father. Mary was a 'charwoman' and provided for her family, Adelaide, Ernest, Whattoff and David. Hosiery and Footwear industries were major employers in Leicestershire and Adelaide became a Griswold Hand whilst her three brothers went into the shoe trade. The family lived on Paddock Row in Syston and moved to School Street where they were living in 1911.</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">The watery sun makes streaks of orange and pink in the slatey blue sky
as it begins to dip below the uncluttered horizon. Against the brightness of
the sunset, and the unremitting greys of the runway and the squat airport
buildings, two shadowy shapes kneel to guide the closing of the twin flaps at
the rear of the C130 Hurricane. The wailing sound of the pipers’ bagpipes dies
away as the four coffins we’d just carried in are swallowed into the belly of
the plane.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">A tear escapes from my left eye as the buglers play the last post, one
either side of the huge door. At least one lad in my line had lifted his cuff
to his face discreetly during the service, but I’m determined to stand
firm. The whole squadron is watching; A Flight, B Flight, C Flight,
Support Weapons and the Boss, with the Engineers and Admin people. Something
like a hundred and fifty of us. Well, not quite that many now. Our fellow
Oggies are on their final journey home, away from this relentless heat, the
dust, the lines of the camp, the flat of the land and the fatigue. We’d never
been so tired. So gutted. So proud.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Parade dismiss!" We turn forty-five degrees together in the
lines where we had been standing to attention, and watch as the plane takes off
into the sun, waggling its wings in a final goodbye.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">"Lads, lads, we did our best." I tell them silently.
We’d spent hours every one of the last three sweltering July days
practicing. The drills involved in lifting the coffins, walking with them, turning,
and setting them on trestles after our normal patrols. Everything had to be
perfectly timed so that all four coffins moved together. Somehow it was, even
though the sight of the Union Jacks had closed my throat.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I shut my eyes for a moment before walking away. I can see the chaplain,
dressed in his sandy-coloured battle dress like we all were, his purple mantle
draped over his shoulders. His last words run through my mind. I’m gonna
remember them forever. The bit about forgiving their sins was crap. They didn’t
have any to forgive and who by, anyway? I don’t hold with all the God stuff
normally, but we need the ritual of giving respect. We need to feel we’ve done
what we can for our brothers-in-arms. That is true.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-US" style="color: #333333; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">I liked the bit he said about acknowledging their good deeds, and hoping
that the beauty of their lives, rather than the manner of their deaths would be
remembered and celebrated. They were all top blokes. The thing is I won’t ever
be able to forget the manner of their deaths, Chris’s death, not ever. But I
will celebrate his life. For sure. I’m deffo gonna do that…<o:p></o:p></span></div>

As we remember those who fought on the 1st July 1916, many of whom died on the battlefield in hopelessness, I would like to share an extract from a publication in which I have written a fictional tale, based on the diaries of a nurse and a stretcher-bearer, who experienced the horror that was The Battle of the Somme.<br />

June 1916<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“No, Sister, leave me be, I’m just
about fed up with this splinter on me arm, and this leg – me leg’s very
painful!’<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Paige smiled at the man with splints
on his right arm and leg that he insisted on calling splinters. “Come on, Joe,
let me change your dressing,” she urged, “you’re going home today.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“All right, Sister,” Joe submitted,
“but make sure you do it right, I’ll be watching you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“I promise I shall.” Paige liked
Joe. “But I’m not a sister,” she told him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>Above the continuous roar from the
guns a tremendous bang rocked the ground and the roof of the tent beat its
gigantic wings above them. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“Be careful, will ya,” Joe scolded,
“I don’t want to lose my arm like he has.” He pointed to the man in the next
bed with nothing but a blood-stained stump where his arm should have been.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“It’s only Grandmother sending
another big one over,” a second-lieutenant with a head wound and lying in a bed
opposite called over the racket. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“It sounds awfully close,” Paige
said, trying to concentrate on Joe’s splinted dressing when she would really
rather have been covering her ears.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“It’s a fifteen-inch Howitzer beside
the railway line just behind us,” the junior officer told her. After much
cursing from Joe, Paige was able to finish his dressings and move on to the
next man in need of attention. Her back ached with all the bending and lifting
and the tight collar of her uniform irritated her neck. Eventually Sister signalled
to the stretcher-bearers, who had been sitting smoking by the tent’s entrance,
to come onto the ward and begin taking these wounded soldiers to the hospital
trains. As beds became empty, Paige removed soiled sheets and replaced them
with cleaner ones. She was leaning over a bed at the end of the ward when she
felt strong arms encircle her waist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“Hello gorgeous,” Wesley whispered
in her ear as he nuzzled her neck. “Ooh, you smell of..” He hesitated.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“Yes?” Paige answered, turning to
face him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“Antiseptic and smoke.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“I wonder why that is! What in God’s
name were you thinking, bringing us here?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“I thought we could make a
difference. You look very fetching in your nurse’s uniform.” He raised his
eyebrows and kissed her cheek.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>“VAD,” Paige corrected him. “You’ll
be laughing on the other side of your face if Sister catches us,” she warned.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">George<span style="font-weight: normal;"> Henry
Copson was born on the 10th February 1888 in Loughborough, Leicestershire. His
father was George Copson of Husbands Bosworth and a contractors labourer (born
1861) and his mother was Ellen Copson (nee Bateman, born 1867)) also of
Husbands Bosworth. His parents were married in Market Harborough district. His
sister, Agnes was born the year before George in Market Harborough, before the
family moved to Loughborough. George’s younger siblings were Edward, born 1889
and Mary, born 1890. In April 1891 the family home was at 17 Wellington Street,
Loughborough, Leicestershire. In March 1901 the family had moved to 48 Moor
Lane, Loughborough, his father now a night-soil foreman. They later moved to
Oxford Street and George’s father was employed by the Loughborough Corporation.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

His complexion was ‘fresh’. He had two ‘N’s tattooed on his left forearm, two
faces – one a sailor, the other a woman, on his left wrist and crossed flags on
his right wrist. His trade was given as ‘houseboy’. He was re-examined when he
reached the age of eighteen and his height was recorded as 5 feet and 5 inches.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US"><b>Battle of Jutland</b><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">At around 23.40
some of the ships of the 4th destroyer flotilla formed up under Commander
Walter Allen of HMS Broke, who was the half-flotilla leader, with the aim on
continuing the attack against German ships nearby. HMS Broke was caught in
searchlights coming from the German battleship SMS Westfalen. She attempted to
fire torpedoes, but the range was only around 150 yards and the German ship
opened fire first. The effect was devastating so that within a couple of
minutes fifty crew were killed and another thirty injured. The attack disabled
the guns and prevented any activity on deck. The helmsman was killed at the
wheel, and as he died his body turned the wheel, which caused HMS Broke to turn
to port and ram HMS Sparrowhawk. Sub Lieutenant Percy Wood saw HMS Broke coming
towards them at twenty-eight knots and heading directly for HMS Sparrowhawk’s
bridge. He shouted warnings to the crew to get clear and was then knocked over
by the impact. When he regained consciousness he was lying on the deck of HMS
Broke. Two other men from HMS Sparrowhawk were also thrown onto HMS Broke. Sub
Lieutenant Wood reported to Commander Allen who told him to return to his own
ship and make preparations to take the crew of HMS Broke on board. When he returned
to HMS Sparrowhawk, Sub Lieutenant Wood was told by his captain, Lieutenant
Commander Sydney Hopkins, that he had just sent exactly the same message to HMS
Broke. Approximately twenty men from HMS Sparrowhawk evacuated to HMS Broke,
whilst fifteen of HMS Broke’s crew crossed to HMS Sparrowhawk.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">A third
destroyer, HMS Contest then crashed into HMS Sparrowhawk, striking six feet
from her stern. HMS Contest was relatively unharmed and able to continue after
the collision. HMS Broke and HMS Sparrowhawk remained wedged together for about
half-an-hour before they could be separated and HMS Broke got underway taking
thirty of HMS Sparrowhawk’s crew with her. HMS Sparrowhawk, although still
having engine power, could only steam ahead in circles near the burning
destroyer HMS Tipperary as her rudder was jammed to one side. At around 02.00 a
German torpedo boat approached and came within one hundred yards of HMS
Sparrowhawk, but then turned away. Only one gun was still working and as the
gun crews had all been killed or injured, the captain and his officers manned
it, but held fire in the hope that the Germans would not initiate an attack.
Shortly afterwards HMS Tipperary sank, putting out the fire that was attracting
attention to the area.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US" style="font-weight: normal;">At around 03.30
the crew on board HMS Sparrowhawk were alarmed when they sighted a German
cruiser, the SMS Elbing, which had been torpedoed and then abandoned. Shortly
afterwards the ship listed and then sank, bow first. At 06.10 a raft approached
carrying twenty-three men from HMS Tipperary, three were already dead and five
more died after being taken on board. An hour later, three British destroyers
arrived and HMS Marksman attempted to get two hawsers attached to HMS
Sparrowhawk to tow her to safely. The high seas meant the ropes parted and
there were reports of German submarines nearby. It was decided to abandon HMS
Sparrowhawk and HMS Marksman fired eighteen shells into her to ensure that she
sank.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
