Jim Elder

 
 

Harrogate Herald - 24th November 1915

W H Breare letter

Some of you boys who know Private Cyril Ford, of the Veterinary Corps, will wonder where he has got to. Whilst at the Front he was kicked by a mule and had his ribs so fractured that he has been in hospital about three months. I think he has spent all that time at the hospital at Reading. You know he went out at the same time as Lieutenant Ellison, Lieutenant Sheffield, and had for his pal Jim Elder. He and Elder were employed at the George Hotel before the war. Apart from those I have mentioned, Ford has not met other Harrogate boys. I am glad to say that he is just about well now, and will probably be returning to duty. He has been out twelve months.
