G/7050 Pte Arthur Airth, 4th Bn, Middx Ret

G/7050 Private Arthur Airth of the 4th Battalion, Middlesex Regiment, died in Bailleul, France on the 15th June 1915, probably as a result of sickness. He was born in Hackney, was living at Maida Vale, and enlisted somewhere in London. His number indicates that he enlisted for wartime service only in early January 1915, and his medal index card shows that he arrived overseas in France on the 7th April that year. He is buried in the Bailleul Communal Cemetery Extension (Nord).

At the going down of the sun, and in the morning, WE WILL REMEMBER THEM.
