Harrogate Herald - 5th September 1917

Gunner W Bedford writes : 

I met a Starbeck lad while in hospital. It was one of Mr Kershaw's sons of The Avenue. He is the first one I have come across all the time I have been out here, and that is just two years today (Thursday) since I landed. I have no Harrogate lads with me in this battery. There is one who comes from Leeds; all the rest are London chaps.
