ROLL OF HONOR. STUART – Killed in France (previously reported missing), Lewis Gunner Fred (Snowy) Stuart, aged 29, second son of Mr and Mrs W. Stuart, Woy Woy.

WOY WOY (From our Correspondent) Mr Walter Stuart, of Woy Woy, has been informed
that his son, Gunner Fred Stuart, who was reported
missing in last issue, has been killed in action in
France. Fred, who was a prominent lightweight
boxer of a few years ago, was practically reared in
Woy Woy, and was very popular with all who knew
him. We desire to extend our sympathy to Mr and
Mrs Stuart, who proved himself a thorough fighter,
whether in the hempen square or out of it.
