Harrogate Herald - 27th February 1918

Private H Lunn says : 

I do enjoy reading about the good old town, but I am sorry to see so many of the poor lads from home that have gone under lately. It seems a tremendous long time since I was having a stroll through the Gardens. You will have heard by now what a great advance our Division made a few weeks back. It was a time I shall never forget as long as I live. I was through the Somme battle in 1916, but it was nothing to this one. I was sorry about W Smith. He was in our Battalion; and there is another lad out here with our Battalion - Reggie Marshall.
