Obituary

It was with deep sorrow that we learned of the death, from dysentery, of Corporal Siggers at Lahore. Enlisting in December 1914, he at once joined the First Battalion at Lowestoft, and went through the recruits' course at Pakefield eventually being posted to "A" Company.

He was promoted Lance Corporal in February 1916 on his way out to India, and at Tank, at the commencement of the Waziristan Campaign, he was made full Corporal, and transferred from "C" Company to "A" Company. On his return from the Frontier his health was unfortunately considerably affected. He was transferred from the Battalion to the R.A.F. at Lahore, and his excellent services were thus lost to us.

Quiet and unassuming in manner, he was yet a most relaible N.C.O. Our heartfelt sympathies go out to his bereaved parents.
