BATTRAM

WAR MEMORIAL

In the presence of a large number of members of the Fitzwilliam Hall Sick and Dividend Club held at the Neville Arms, Battram, Mr E. Webster, under-manager of the Nailstone Colliery, unveiled an oil painting to the memory of the following members of the Lodge, who died whilst serving their country during the war:

Privates W. O. Hoden, A. Price, A. Quilter, John W. Partner, H. Partner and S. W. Richards. These names were beautifully written on the memorial, which is framed in oak, and hung in the Lodge Room. A bugler of Ibstock Prize Band sounded the Last Post and the Band gave a selection of suitable pieces.
