Harrogate Herald - 19th September 1917

W H Breare letter

Next I had a visit from two other boys, who came together : Pte George Gledhill and Signaller J Crossley. Gledhill, who is in the MGC, is son of Mr & Mrs Thomas Gledhill, of 81 Mayfield Grove. He went out 18 months ago, and this was his first leave. In one respect he is better off than some of his comrades, who have been 20 months and over without coming home. Charlie Mawer, of 4 Devonshire Place, joined Gledhill's company three months ago. Arras was the last place at which Gledhill was engaged, from April 9th to June.
