Sapper Edwin Russell

 
 

Harrogate Herald – 23rd May 1917

Letters

Sapper E Russell says : 

I came across one of the boys I used to work with at the Gas Company. His name is Addyman. It is very nice to meet someone whom you know. The place we are now in is very nice - a good change from the roar of the guns.

W H Breare letter

Another of my visitors has been Sapper E Russell, Divisional Signals Company, of 50 Albany Road. He is a son of Mr Russell, Gas Office, who was Masonic Hall keeper. He has two brothers who went out in December and January. He had seen Addyman, who worked with him at the Gas Office. Russell has been two years and four months on military service and nine months in France.

Letters

Mrs Dyson Lister has received the following acknowledgement from Sapper E Russell

I am taking the liberty of writing to thank you for underpants forwarded by Mr Breare. I am sure the Harrogate people have done exceedingly well in sending things to boys on active service, and it is a pleasure to know we have such kind friends thinking about us. We get it very rough at times especially in the winter months. I hope soon we shall see the end of the war, as I think everyone has had enough.
